George was joined by his father Nick Clooney on Piers Morgan Tonight on Friday to talk about different topics like politics, charity activities and even his love life. George's father wants his son to open his eyes about marriage, citing his 51-year marriage to Clooney's mother.

At this moment, experiencing the things on his first marriage is enough for him. George said:
“I hate to blow your whole news story, but I was married. Yeah, so I’ve proven how good I was at it, and I just. … I’m allowed one.”
Clooney was married to actress Talia Balsam from 1989 to 1993. Talia currently plays Mona Sterling on “Mad Men”, ex-wife of Roger Sterling, played by John Slattery. Talia and John are also real-life couple, married since 1998.
