George, meanwhile, celebrated his 55th birthday just last week, and has revealed the unusual, and thoughtful, gift that he received from his wife. "We have a beautiful front lawn at our house in England and I used to mow lawns when I was a kid," he told ET Canada. "So she bought me this giant riding lawnmower that is sitting at the house right now, and I am very excited about putting that to work when I'm home."
