TORONTO , Oct. 22 /CNW/ - It looks like George Clooney's relationship with Italian TV presenter and model Elisabetta Canalis is heating up. The Hollywood heartthrob introduced the dark-haired beauty, who he has been seeing for three months, to his close circle of friends in Italy this summer. Among them were style icon and longtime friend Cindy Crawford and husband Rande Gerber, who have since warmly embraced the new woman in George's life, going on double dates with the duo in Los Angeles and holidaying with them. Cindy tells HELLO! that Elisabetta is "really sweet," and says the gorgeous couple are "having fun."

The supermodel and mom also lent her support recently when George and Elisabetta attended the London Film Festival premiere of Roald Dahl's animated Fantastic Mr. Fox - in which he lends his voice to the lead. Elisabetta was again by his side and all smiles at a film screening a couple of nights later. George chats to HELLO! about his upbringing in Ohio, love, fame, friendship - and the future.
