It seems George Clooney was just as a shocked as we were to find out the news of the Brangelina divorce.
The actor, who is good friends with Brad Pitt after starring alongside him in several films, found out about the split during an interview with a CNN reporter at the UN General Assembly yesterday.
Reporter Richard Roth asked Clooney about the news Angelina Jolie has filed for divorce from Brad, after 12 years together.
"What happened?", Clooney reacted.
"I didn't know that. Wow.
"I feel very sorry then," he said. "That's a sad story and unfortunate for a family. It's an unfortunate story about a family. I feel very sorry to hear that."
Clooney added, "This is the first I've heard of it."

Brad has released a statement on the matter. In it, he expresses his sadness at the turn of events. It reads: "I am very saddened by this, but what matters most now is the well-being of our kids. I kindly ask the press to give them the space they deserve during this challenging time."
Angelina filed the documents on Monday, citing irreconcilable differences.
Angelina's lawyer released a statement on her behalf, which reads: "This decision was made for the health of the family. She will not be commenting, and asks that the family be given its privacy at this time."
Angelina and Brad began dating in 2004, after they met on the set of the film Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
While on set for that movie, Brad was married to former Friends actress Jennifer Aniston, before they were divorced in 2005.
They eventually married in August 2014, and went on to have 6 children together.
Meanwhile, Adele Adele has dedicated her show in Madison Square Garden to Brangelina. Watch that video here.
