Clooney Canalis split rumours denied

(ANSA) - Rome, May 19 - Rumours that George Clooney and Elisabetta Canalis are on the verge of splitting are untrue, friends of the couple told ANSA Thursday. "They're always together. When he's working she follows him onto the set, always surrounded by very tight security, sources very close to the couple said.

     

The Hollywood star and his Italian actress companion recently spent time off from filming Clooney's latest movie, Alfonso Cuaron's Gravity, at Cowth Park, a beauty spot in the London countryside, they said.

Talk of a break-up was started by E! Online's Awful Truth column which said Clooney wanted to "clear out some clutter now he's turned 50".

This allegedly included the Italian beauty, it said.

"According to friends in Clooney's inner circle, the actor is SO ready to move on. But he can't pull the trigger just yet,"the columnist said.

Canalis is currently in Cannes where she has been spotted on the yacht of designer Roberto Cavalli, for whom she fronts a lingerie line.

On Thursday evening she will be at one of Cavalli's charity dinners where guests will include Tunisian-Italian businesswoman and former model Afef Jnifen and Hollywood sex bomb Rosario Dawson.
