They already have phenomenal homes in Italy and France, but George and Amal Clooney could be set to add another European bolthole to their staggering multi-million dollar property portfolio.
The Ocean's 11 actor, 63, and his human rights barrister wife, 46, are no strangers to continental living and, if recent reports are accurate, are now said to be eyeing up property in Portugal.
George and Amal are keen on the A-list beloved coastal town of Melides, about half an hour's drive from the capital, Lisbon.
More specifically, they have their sights set on a luxe abode in the exclusive resort, CostaTerra Golf and Ocean Club.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle reside in Montecito, California, with their two children Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, three. The family live in a seriously impressive Mediterranean-style home with multiple bedrooms, a swimming pool, and sprawling gardens.
However, according to a report in MailOnline, the royal couple are keen to have a base in Europe and the stunning sights of CostaTerra ticks their boxes.
The Clooney's royal neighbours in sunny Portugal
If the Clooneys do sign on the dotted line for a home in Melides, then the Duke and Duchess of Sussex won't be their only royal neighbours.
Harry's cousin Princess Eugenie and her husband Jack Brooksbank relocated to Portugal in 2022 and now live there in the super private complex with their two sons, August, three, and Ernest, one. However, they do still have a UK base in Kensington Palace.

The Clooneys are familiar with both royal couples. Amal and George attended the Sussex's Windsor nuptials in 2018 and, the following year, Amal attended Meghan's A-list baby shower in New York City.

Meanwhile, the area is known for attracting high-society clientele, with Nicole Kidman and Scarlett Johansson also thought to have houses in the area.

George has had his foot in Europe for years now. The Oscar-winning actor bought a home in Laglio, on Lake Como, back in 2002. The Italian home, known as Villa Oleandra, is now worth more than $100 million according to the Wall Street Journal.
It also holds a special place in the couple's love story since, back in 2012, George hosted a dinner party that Amal attended as a plus-one of a mutual friend. The couple began dating shortly after and the rest is history.

Named Domaine Le Canadel, the home is located on a breathtaking 18th-century vineyard in the gorgeously picturesque town of Brignoles.
Aerial shots of the estate show how fantastic it is. There are generously sized lawns, a full-size pool, a tennis court, a lake, and an olive grove – and a vineyard which is 25 acres alone.
George and Amal's seven-year-old twins, Alexander and Ella, are apparently already bilingual and able to speak in Italian and English. Who knows, in a few years they could add Portuguese to that list…
