Clooney invited them to stay at his villa, and was ready and waiting for the Obamas.
It seems that when it comes to swimming pools, even the Clooneys aren’t immune to plumbing issues.
The local plumber was asked to Hurry up!
“What a race.
I arrive and they are all upset.”
Clooney’s bodyguard was supervising, and asked him to “Hurry up!
Luckily, Penne was able to get the pool back in working condition before the Obamas arrived.
One bystander, who observed the couples at a local restaurant, toldE!
News, “George and Barack looked like best friends.
They were laughing the entire time and taking pictures together.”
Clooney supported Obama through his campaign for president in 2008.
“I love that guy,” he toldThe New Yorker.
“I love him.”
Obama returned the sentiment.
“George is a wonderful guy,” he told Entertainment Tonight, as shared byEntertainment Weekly.
“He is a good man, and a good friend.”
The Italian trip wasn’t the first time Clooney hosted Obama at one of his homes, either.
No word on the condition of the plumbing.
