In the 10 months they’ve been dating, George Clooney had whisked Stacy Keibler away to Mexico for many beach vacations.

But the wrestler-turned-model has finally had a chance to stay at his plush Italian villa after the actor brought her to Lake Como for the first time.

After a few days in Mexico last week, the pair flew to Europe to stay in his lakeside home in Northern Italy.

Spotted enjoying a cruise of the Lombardy beauty spot, Stacy looked thrilled to be in Italy with her handsome boyfriend.

Accompanied by some friends, the 32-year-old showed off her toned arms in a jade and white maxi jumpsuit, which she complemented with a matching fedora hat.

As fans of the 51-year-old actor will know, he spends most summers in Lake Como since buying a house there in 2001.

Since buying the 30-room villa 11 years ago, Clooney has entertained a host of Hollywood pals and ex-girlfriends.

Last August, he was joined at his home by Cindy and Rande, Bono and his family.

In 2010, the villa was at the centre of a bidding war after Clooney became disillusioned with being photographed at the plush villa and put it up for sale.

It was reported that David Beckham was keen to buy it, and negotiations reportedly reached an ‘advanced stage’.

Clooney is said to have bought the villa in the town of Laglio for £10million in 2002.

At the time Mayor Roberto Pozzi, said: ‘It would be a shame if George went. He has become one of the locals.

‘If George does leave I hope the Beckhams buy the place as it will keep a touch of glamour in Laglio.’

Their trip to Italy comes a few days after they vacationed in Cabo San Lucas – one of his favourite holiday destinations

In the 11 months they’ve been dating, Keibler has already joined Clooney in Cabo five times.

The
actor first took to Cabo last October for her 32nd birthday and they
also spent the New Year’s holidays there with his close friends Cindy
Crawford and her husband Rande Gerber.
