Amal Alamuddin got engaged to famous actor George Clooney in April 2014 and even though the couple obtained their marriage license in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, they got married in Venice. Their wedding was probably one of the celebrity highlights of the year and many were surprised that the beautiful lawyer was able to tie bachelor Clooney down.
During October 2014, the couple announced the purchase of a new home in the Sonning Eye in England. Mill House was bought for approximately 10 million pounds, making England the new home base of this adorable couple.
