(Cover) - EN Showbiz - George Clooney's girlfriend Stacy Keibler is "sweet and gorgeous".

Former The Real Housewives of New York City star Kelly Bensimon is very fond of Stacy. Kelly is impressed by the actress-and-former-wrestler's kindness.

"Stacy Kiebler is such a beautiful girl and she's so super nice. I do know her. She's really, really sweet and gorgeous," Kelly said to the American edition of OK! magazine.

George and Stacy began dating in August. Previously, George underwent a highly-publicised split from former girlfriend Italian TV presenter Elisabetta Canalis.

George is thought by many to be an eternal bachelor after divorcing from ex-wife Mad Men actress Talia Balsam in 1993. Despite this widespread assumption, his relationship with Stacy has been reportedly getting serious.

Kelly sees why George may be smitten with Stacy.

"She is really down to earth. I don't know their relationship, but she is a lovely, lovely girl," Kelly explained.

"She's really cool, she always remembers your name, says hi, she's never too good for anybody. She's like my kind of girl. She's a girl's girl."

George is currently promoting his recently released film The Ides of March. (C) Cover Media
