Being good friend to ex-lover, George Clooney, Renee Zellweger said that she feels that she has been married to the actor for more than 20 years.

Renee Zellweger feels she has been "married" to George Clooney for 28 years. The 'Cold Mountain' actress, who reportedly dated George in 2001 and again in 2006, is such close friends with the handsome actor he feels like her husband.

When asked how long she has known George, Renee replied jokingly: "Oh, God. Twenty-five, 30 years." George added: "Thirty-five years!" Renee continued in an interview with W magazine: "We've been married for 28 years." To which George interrupted: "Twenty-seven. We lived together the first year. There was a lot of fighting." The 'Bridget Jones' actress jokingly claimed they shared their household chores when they lived together, saying: "I fed the dogs and pigs. I vacuumed too."

Renee, who later in the interview revealed she has really been friends with George for almost 10 years, also spoke of her fears about working with him on new movie 'Leatherheads'. She said: "I didn't want to drop the ball, to be the one who sucks. He doesn't even know how important his opinion has been to me over the years. I don't want to disappoint him. "

George, who also directed 'Leatherheads', insists Renee did a great job on the movie. He said: "In movies, so often the guy gets to be the one with all the answers. In this one, she's the smart one. Which was incredible acting on her part."

'Leatherheads' is a romantic comedy set in the 20s. It follows the story of an American football team owner who sees his new coach fall for his fiancee. The movie is scheduled for release in April 2008.
