George and Amal Clooney were far from their English country mansion and all the better for it on Wednesday after the £15million property succumbed to more flooding.
The couple looked every inch the superstar couple as they stepped out in the South of France, where they are believed to own a residence in rural Provence.
The Ocean’s Eleven star, 62, looked dashing in jeans and a padded coat paired with a cap and sunglasses while the Lebanese–British barrister, 46, made a statement in flared jeans with a slash extending up the leg.
The couple were enjoying a stroll and a drive through an idyllic area in the Cote d’Azur, having reportedly relocated.
And the clement weather across the country’s south coast may well have been just the tonic after their riverside property in Berkshire was battered by torrential rain, leaving its surrounding fields almost completely submerged in water.

After walking hand-in-hand down the road, the couple, who share twins Ella and Alexander, six, hopped into George’s £69k Mercedes-Benz AMG E53 Coupe to fill up on petrol before zipping off in style.
Amal looked typically chic in her jeans, which she paired with flats, a tight black tee and a leather jacket alongside stylish sunglasses.
George meanwhile was rocking off-duty star style, complete with a dark polo shirt, padded jacket, light wash jeans and suede Chelsea boots.
He kept a low-profile with his sunglasses and baseball cap.
Their jaunt around the area comes amid the speculation that the Clooneys have now moved permanently to the Cote d’Azur and are no longer spending time at their £10million Thameside mansion in Sonning, Berkshire.
The couple are said to have been living at the 18th century Domaine du Canadel for several months.
And they have not been seen at the Grade II-listed property in the UK – which they bought in 2014 and spent millions renovating – for two years, according to locals.
Their idyllic French estate includes a 25-acre vineyard, a pool, tennis court, boules pitch, olive grove and ornamental lake.

It is also just a 25-minute drive from Chateau Miraval, the winery which George’s friend and fellow actor Brad Pitt bought with Angelina Jolie while they were married.
She has since secretly sold her share to a Russian vodka oligarch, prompting an ongoing and bitter legal battle as to who has the controlling interest.
The Clooneys, who married in Venice six years ago, also have a luxurious home on the banks of Lake Como in Italy.
George bought Villa Oleandra from the Heinz family in 2002 and spends most summers at the property, which boasts a basketball court, movie theatre and a garage full of vintage motorbikes.
It has hosted a string of stars, including Jennifer Aniston and Matt Damon, as well as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
Parts of Clooney’s film Ocean’s Twelve were also shot there. There had been reports Clooney was set to sell it, which he has insisted are not true.
Aside from their real estate, George recently surprised his wife Amal on her 46th birthday with a Saint Bernard puppy called Nelson
Nelson is not the first St Bernard the family have owned. Four years ago, George brought puppy, Rosie, named after his late aunt, actress and singer Rosemary Clooney.
He is also known for rescuing animals, who end up travelling the world with him. He previously owned cocker spaniel Einstein, who died in 2017, and the couple have since rescued basset hound Millie and Louie, another spaniel.
