Housewives of Britain may want to look away now.

Sorry ladies, but it looks like George Clooney is totally smitten with his missus, Stacy Keibler.

The couple were spotted enjoying a romantic boat ride on Lake Como yesterday.

George and the former WWE star have been taking a break in the Italian retreat, where George has had a home since 2001.

They are likely to be celebrating, as it is coming up to their first anniversary - they began dating last July.

It had been rumoured the couple were expecting their first child together, but reports were dispelled by reliable US website TMZ, who said: "Sources connected to The Keib tell us ... the rumours are '100% FALSE'."

It was announced yesterday that George is set to turn director on Meryl Streep's new film, August: Osage County.

The film is an adaptation of the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning play by Tracy Letts, and George is set to work with director John Wells and producer/screenwriter Grant Heslov.

In a statement, George said: "Grant and I are thrilled to work on this project. It's already a great cast and great material and I can't think of anyone better than Harvey [Weinstein] to put this all together. And we're particularly excited to work with our dear friend John Wells. It's such a terrific group and we feel honoured to help bring it to the screen.''
