In an emotional statement sent to People, George Clooney mourned the death of his older sister, Adelia “Ada” Zeidler, on Friday, December 19, at the age of 65.
“My sister, Ada, was my heroine,” the actor wrote. “She faced cancer with courage and good humor. I have never known anyone so brave.” “Amal and I will miss her deeply.”
Ada was born in Los Angeles on May 2, 1960, the daughter of journalist and TV host Nick Clooney and writer Nina Bruce Warren.
Ada Zeidler was an elementary school art teacher and a nationally recognized high school honor student who loved to read.
Although she lived a private life in Kentucky, she and her famous brother were always close and took part in each other’s lives, including his wedding to Amal Clooney in 2014, when Ada was by his side.
According to her obituary, she died “peacefully, surrounded by the people she loved” at St. Elizabeth Healthcare in Edgewood, Kentucky, USA.
