George Clooney and Amal Clooney arrive at the 42nd Cesar Film Awards ceremony at Salle Pleyel in Paris in February. George Clooney said in a statement today that photographers who captured images of him and his wife, human rights lawyer Amal Clooney, cradling their newborn twins will be “prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

George Clooney said photographers who captured images of him and his wife, human rights lawyer Amal Clooney, cradling their newborn twins will be “prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

The pictures published by French magazine Voici were taken at the Clooneys’ residence in the Lombardy region of Italy. The magazine claimed the photos are the first to be made public of twins Ella and Alexander, who were born June 6.

The actor said photographers “scaled our fence, climbed our tree and illegally took pictures of our infants inside our home.”

He added that the photographers, the photo agency and the magazine will face prosecution because the safety of the couple’s children “demands it.”
