George Clooney has married Amal Alamuddin in Venice, in one of the most eagerly anticipated showbiz event of the year.

The ceremony was celebrated in a hotel overlooking the famous Grand Canal.

George Clooney’s agent Stan Rosenfield broke the news to journalists.

Stan Rosenfield announced the news in a single sentence in what, according to AP news agency, is expected to be the only communication on the marriage.

George Clooney and his friends had sipped champagne before gliding up the Grand Canal on Saturday evening to the luxury Aman Hotel, waving to hundreds of well-wishers.

Guests include Cindy Crawford, Bill Murray, Matt Damon and the U2 singer Bono.

George Clooney’s boat was momentarily blocked by a passing cruise liner and then by a water bus, giving time for dozens of boats carrying photographers to catch up, AP writes.

A police boat swerved in vain to try to keep the paparazzi away.

Human rights lawyer Amal Alamuddin was last seen publicly on September 26 riding in a water taxi down the Grand Canal with George Clooney’s arm resting around her.

George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin were engaged in April 2014.
