Hollywood superstar George Clooney's former girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis says she has moved on from him and is now too busy preparing for her marriage.

The 35-year-old Italian actress-model will be tying knot with surgeon Brian Perri in the same month and place, Clooney would be getting married to lawyer-fiancee Amal Alammuddin, reported Us magazine. "I am happy for him, but I am thinking only of my happiness.

It is the most important day of my life, I don't have time to think of anyone else," she said, adding that she shared a real connection with Clooney, 53, and does not mind speaking about him.

"That is the wrong impression that many have made and I do not have any problems speaking about him. There is no mystery, no contract, no secrets to hide.

"So many people believe that a relationship with a such a famous person, always in the spotlight, was not possible," she said, when asked if the former couple were together for professional reasons. "Instead we had a real connection and it ended as all relationships can end," Canalis added.
