Clooney to marry girlfriend Sarah Larson?

George Clooney will marry girlfriend Sarah Larson, reports say.

A restaurant worker in Laglio, the Italian town where Clooney owns a villa, said: "They haven't made any announcement yet, but there are people in this town who know more than me. They say the couple are already engaged."

The pair met while Larson was serving drinks in a Las Vegas hotel.

Larson accompanied Clooney to the Oscars last month, the first time the actor has taken a date to the ceremony.

A former flame of Larson recently branded her "high maintenance", saying that she enjoyed "exotic Indian dancing" and playing the bongos.
