Apparently, George Clooney may have figured out there’s no girlfriend like an old girlfriend. The bedroom-eyed Oscar winner has quietly circled back to Krista Allen, friends tell us.
Their on-and-off long-running romance began in 2002 when George cast Krista in “Confessions of a Dangerous Mind.” (This was after his marriage to Talia Balsam and linkages with Kelly Preston, Celine Balitran, Charlize Theron, Renee Zellweger, Jennifer Lynn Siebel and Mariella Frostrup. But who’s counting?)
George and Krista dated for close to two years, till Allen broke it off in March 2004. He moved on to model Lisa Snowden, but then he and Krista tried again in 2006. After that, he dated Sarah Larson, cocktail waitress and “Fear Factor” winner, for most of a year.
Throughout, says a friend, “Krista has always been there for him. She admits she just can’t get over him.”
And something about Krista brings him back. “George really loves her,” says the source.
A relationship with Krista, 37, would mean a ready-made family for George, 47, who once vowed that he wouldn’t remarry or have children by the time he was 50. Krista has an 11-year-old son, Jake, with production manager Justin Moritt.
But it may not be an issue. Says the source, “George adores Krista’s son.”
Reps for the two declined to comment.
Meanwhile, George has been shooting in Puerto Rico, where Hurricane Omar slowed down production of “The Men Who Stare at Goats.” He plays a former member of the U.S. Army’s First Earth Battalion, a unit that employs paranormal powers in their missions. Next up for the actor is “Up in the Air,” in which he plays a “career transition counselor” who’s looking to accumulate 1 million frequent flier miles and land a job at a mysterious management company called MythTech.
