She was the kooky singleton who charmed audiences throughout the world as she desperately sought true love as Bridget Jones.

Now, it seems, Renee Zellweger really has hooked her man - Hollywood’s gorgeous George Clooney - and together they make a fabulous looking couple.

It has taken Renee a lot of work to get her body back to what it was pre-Bridget Jones’s Diary. In just a few months she’s shed an astonishing four stone with a punishing gym routine, nutrition programme and yoga classes. Those days of trudging around the London set of Bridget Jones wailing “I’m so fat, I’m so fat,” seem long-gone.

Renee, 32, met George, 40, through mutual friends earlier this year and the pair spent much of the summer seeing each other in secret. But, as this picture shows, they seem to be finally going public with their affair.
