Elisabetta Canalis Says She Had “Father-Daughter” Type Relationship With George Clooney

Italian TV personality and former George Clooney girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis recently revealed that her relationship with George Clooney bordered on a father-daughter type relationship.

Canalis revealed details about her relationship with the A-List actor in the upcoming book Questo Amore ( This Love ) by Italian journalist Bruno Vespa. In the book Canalis, 33, praised Clooney, 50, for being “the person who valued my feminine side the most” and “also one of the best people I have met from a charitable point of view.”

Revealing the “father” aspect of their relationship she said of Clooney “he has been a special for me, and very important, just as a father would be” while elaborating “between us there was more of a father-daughter relationship. I was unable to clarify this up ’til now.”

In the book Canalis also says it wasn’t Clooney’s aversion to marriage that caused their relationship to end:

“George and I never spoke of marriage nor of having kids,” she says. “I don’t put limits to the possibility of having them, but neither George nor I had ever envisaged having kids together. The end of the relationship was not caused by a marriage issue, but instead by our personal needs.”

Clooney is now dating Stacy Keibler and in the meantime he’s still getting two thumbs up from Elisabetta Canalis , not bad for a serial dater who could have been portrayed in a different light.
