Baroness Helena Kennedy, who works with Mrs Clooney, said her colleague would make an outstanding member of the upper house.

Lady Kennedy, a Labour peer, told the Daily Mail: "Amal would be a great Baroness. She’s an incredibly bright woman.

"The only justification for being appointed to the second chamber is if you can bring to it special expertise, and that can be of all different kinds. And Amal certainly has expertise."


Clooney, 57, cut a dash in a light grey suit and pale blue shirt with striped white and gold tie with matching pocket handkerchief. The star was all smiles as he walked into Windsor Castle arm-in-arm with barrister wife Amal, 40, who looked stunning in figure hugging yellow Stella McCartney dress and matching hat with incredible six-inch heels. Clooney, sporting his trademark gruff grey beard, waved at well-wishers and shouted “Hi guys!” to members of the public who cheered wildly as he and his wife entered the castle grounds. The glamorous couple - who have house in the UK less half-an-hour from Windsor - are attending the whole day, including the evening reception. And on social media the verdict was clear - George and Amal had easily won the style war to emerge as the best-dressed celebrity couple at the royal wedding. Eric Young tweeted: “George Clooney is depressingly handsome isn’t he?” while Carol Wilkie added: “Oh my George Clooney just gets more handsome. Sigh.”

The hit US morning show Today tweeted: “George and Amal Clooney look beyond gorgeous at the Royal Wedding.” And BBC Radio 5Live described Amal Clooney as a “human, gorgeous sunflower!" Others were slightly less kind, pointing out that George Clooney had failed to wear a morning suit with some even claiming he appeared to be wearing orthopedic shoes. One poster Tweeted: “David Beckham looks great but maybe Anna Wintour could have extended her style advise to George Clooney... a grey morning suit doesn’t just mean a grey suit you wear in the morning! Andrew Lomas added: “George Clooney’s suit is a bit... cheap.” Another added: “A formal day suit for men usually has tails, they mostly wear an ascot tie with it. For example, George Clooney is NOT wearing a day suit, I believe that David Beckham IS wearing one.” And one cruel UK Twitter user even added: “I love George Clooney, but come on man, that suit screams for brown oxfords, it’s like he’s rocking black orthotics!” George Clooney was later seen chatting to other celebrities including Oprah Winfrey, Idris Elba, David Beckham and Sir Elton John inside St George’s Chapel.

The Clooneys - who have increasingly concentrated on their humanitarian work in recent years - later greeted Serena Williams, Idris Elba and his financee Sabrina Dhowre inside the chapel. Ms Markle, 36, officially became the Duchess of Sussex when she tied the knot with Harry, 33. The happy couple were closed with glorious sunshine for their nuptials after a tough week in which Meghan’s father Thomas, 73, had to pull-out of attending the royal wedding after suffering a heart attack. Meghan was walked down the aisle by Harry’s father, Prince Charles.

The Queen's grandson, who is sixth in line to the throne, pledged to love, comfort, honour and protect the former actress as they become husband and wife in the historic surrounds of St George's Chapel in Windsor Castle. Hours before the ceremony, Buckingham Palace announced that Harry has been given a dukedom - the highest rank in the British peerage - and Meghan is now Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Sussex. Harry also received Scottish and Northern Irish titles, becoming the Earl of of Dumbarton and Baron Kilkeel, which means Meghan is now also the Countess of Dumbarton and Baroness Kilkeel. Tens of thousands of royal fans descended on the Berkshire town to catch a glimpse of the bride and groom, as police created a ring of steel around the castle in a massive security operation.
