George and Amal Clooney's mansion in Berkshire County has been affected again by the overflowing of the River Thames as it passes through the property. Aerial images published by British media show how part of the property, which is located on an island in the river, is covered by water up to the vicinity of the main building.
Since moving in, the couple have faced several flooding of the Thames and subsequent flooding of their property. The Hollywood star and human rights lawyer bought this 17th-century mansion in 2016, and since then, on up to four occasions, the British media have reported that the couple's garden, tennis court and swimming pool have been affected by heavy rains in the area.
The Clooneys, who own several mansions around the world, paid an undisclosed sum for this property which was put on the market for almost €9 million (£7.5 million) in September 2014, a couple of weeks after its three-day wedding extravaganza in Venice.
After an extensive renovation of the interior of the main building and other accessory buildings that lasted 18 months and cost several million euros, the nine-bedroom manor house today features a large swimming pool and a pool house for guests, a large terrace , a boathouse, an artificial grass tennis court and a cinema for 12 spectators.
George and Amal moved to Sonning, a marshy area of the River Thames after completing renovations about a year before the birth of their twins, Ella and Alexander, in June 2017. The property is now covered in ivy and protected from prying eyes. by a row of willows. The couple kept a low profile when they lived on the property, but now, locals told MailOnline last September, the couple would not be residing in the town.
It seems that the couple now prefers to divide their time between Italy and the United States, where they have several properties. For a few months it is believed that they reside more frequently in Villa Oleandra, an 18th century construction on the shore of Lake Como.
