Los Angeles, If reports are anything to go by, actress Sandra Bullock is apparently disappointed that her friend and actor George Clooney got engaged to British lawyer Amal Alamuddin.
The actress held a soft corner for Clooney and apparently hoped that they will unite at some point, reports showbizspy.com.
"Sandra has secretly carried a torch for George for years. As long as he was single, Sandra held out hope that they might get together romantically someday. But now George is set to marry Amal," a source told National Enquirer.
"After the news came out (about George's engagement), Sandra wailed to a friend: 'That could have been me!'," added the source.
Meanwhile, Alamuddin flashed a diamond sparkler while dining at the Malibu restaurant here with the Oscar winner and friends on April 24.
The source continued: "Hearing about that, just devastated Sandy. It meant that George was off the market for good. It's hard for Sandy to wrap her mind around it."
