The ‘Monuments Men‘ actor is set to tie the knot with girlfriend Amal Alamuddin later this year,And his aunt thinks his close friend and ‘Burn after reading‘ co-star will be by his side to offer support at the ceremony.
Starla Clooney said: ‘I would say he’d choose Brad Pitt for his best man. They are good friends, I would think that’s who he’d choose.’
Starla – who works as a non-denominational minister also confirmed her nephew is planning to marry the 36-year-old lawyer in Italy, with his parents Nick and Nina Clooney planning a trip to Europe to help with the preparations.
She told MailOnline: ‘I did hear Cincinnati, since it’s not that far from Kentucky – that’s one of the places they were considering, but apparently Cincinnati didn’t win, it’s not going to be the place.’
‘I do know that Nick and Nina are planning a trip over to Italy in the next week or so to, I guess, scope out some stuff.’
However, she offered her own services to preside over a local ceremony if the couple decides to have another wedding for those family members who can’t travel.
She added: ‘Sure, I’d do it in a heartbeat!’
Meanwhile, several members of George’s extended family were left disappointed after Amal missed his annual family reunion in Maysville, Kentucky, because she was working in London.
Ben Breslin, 55, a cousin of George Clooney, who hosted a big party on Saturday night, said: ‘When he came in the front door, I was looking around asking where is she?’
‘He explained she’s a lawyer and apparently she’s across the sea somewhere working on a case, off saving the world. It was a shame because I would have liked to have met her.’
