Problems seem to follow George Clooney around.

The two-time Oscar winner has been in the eye of the storm after a class action lawsuit was filed alleging that his tequila brand, "Casamigos", is not what it promises to be.

According to the lawsuit, the drink is not made from 100% pure Blue Weber agave, but is mixed with cane sugar. Diageo North America is accused of "false advertising."

Although he sold the company for $1 billion in 2017, he remains one of its ambassadors. That is why his involvement in this legal issue will be determined "as the case progresses," according to a representative of the law firm Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, as reported to RadarOnline.com.

However, this is not the only issue causing Clooney headaches.

His marriage, increasingly nearing its end

For some time now, George has been trying to save his marriage to Amal Clooney, but according to reports, they have secretly divorced away from the cameras after 11 years together.

The truth is that their struggle goes beyond that, after US President Donald Trump threatened Amal with banning her from entering the country following her comments showing and being a pro-Palestinian lawyer. Faced with this, she was forced to separate from her children, who stayed in New York to their father in his Broadway plays.

"Having Trump and his immigration goons coming after Amal because of her criticisms of America's alliance with Israel was already stressful enough, but now he's got this nightmare lawsuit to fight and it promises to get extremely messy," said the source, highlighting the turbulent times Clooney is going through, "he's at the end of his rope."
