Amal Clooney cuts a chic figure in red dress as she steps out for another busy day in New York City

She leads a decidedly busy life, raising 15-month-old twins, Ella and Alexander, with her husband George Clooney, while working as a human rights lawyer.

And Amal Clooney was spotted attending to her professional duties on Friday morning, as she made her way to the United Nations to attend the Committee to Protect Journalists event in New York City.

The 40-year-old beauty looked typically chic in a stylish red dress, which hugged her enviably slender frame, as she prepared to make an appearance as a featured panellist at the event, held to discuss press freedom and imprisoned journalists.

Standing tall in a pair of vertiginous nude heels, the mother-of-two carried a camel coat, which perfectly complemented her taupe handbag.

With her raven locks falling beyond her shoulders in voluminous waves, she highlighted her natural beauty with a rich palette of makeup, while glittering drop earrings further illuminated her flawless ensemble.

Over the past few days, Amal — who welcomed twins Alexander and Ella with Hollywood star George in June 2017 — has been busy with meetings at the UN.

She previously told Vogue how her romance with George, 56, came about after she attended a party at his house on Lake Como, Italy.

After, the pair exchanged emails, with George taking on the guise of his dog Einstein, pretending he was in need of legal rescue.

She said: ‘I was 35 when I met him. It wasn’t obvious that it was going to happen for me. And I wasn’t willing or excited about the idea of getting married or having a family in the absence of that.

George had previously said that they went on a safari with friends and he took a photo of some giraffes that had come up to a smiling Amal – and in that moment, he had an epiphany that he should propose.

Amal also told Vogue that their 10-month-old twins Ella and Alexander have already said their first words and climb in bed with the couple both between six and 8am. (Amal won’t take calls before then).

She said coyly: ‘We’ve had some “Mamas” and “Dadas.” George was very careful to ensure that “Mama” was the first word.’

She noted that their routine is easier now than when they were first born as the bed was full of ‘weird cushions and pillows and machines,’ at that time.
