And where better than on an idyllic island in the Seychelles with George Clooney on your arm?
That’s where high-flying barrister Amal Alamuddin found herself – enjoying long walks on the beach with the Hollywood actor before jetting off to enjoy a safari in Tanzania to seal their fledgling romance.

Rumours about the two first surfaced when they were spotted together in London last October. At the time Clooney, 52, is reported to have described her as a ‘friend’.
But her status appears to have changed since the start of this year. In February Miss Alamuddin, 36, accompanied Clooney to a White House screening of his latest film, Monuments Men, where onlookers described them as being ‘very much together.’
Miss Alamuddin is a lawyer who specialises in international law and human rights. She is a graduate of the New York University School of Law and in 2011 she started representing WikiLeaks founder Assange in his fight against extradition to Sweden.

The beauty, born in Beirut, is fluent in French and Arabic and is also believed to be advising Kofi Annan, the former United Nations Secretary General, on Syria.
She is also the author of several book chapters and articles on international criminal law.
Last year she topped the 21 Hottest Baristers in London list for women, created by Yourbarristerboyfriend.tumblr.com.
Her entry on the site begins: ‘Amo, Amas, Amal. These are three short words that come to mind when thinking about this dazzling beauty.’
Clooney has dated a string of stunning women over the years from British model Lisa Snowdon to Italian actress Elisabetta Canalis and former pro-wrestler Stacy Keibler.
But when asked in a recent interview who is or was the greatest love of his life, the Gravity star replied: ‘I haven’t met her yet.’
