George chatted with ET’s Kevin Frazier in March shortly after the news broke that he and Amal had not one, but two bundles of joy on the way.

"I don't know how you fully digest [having two], but I'm excited," the first-time father said while at CinemaCon in Las Vegas. "It will be fun."

"My wife says I can't name them Casa and Amigos. That's the one thing I'm not allowed to do," he joked about naming their children after his tequila company.

The stunning 39-year-old human rights lawyer first put her baby bump on display at the 42nd César Awards in Paris, France, in late February.
