Bono, the supermodel and Penelope Cruz hand-in-hand in St Tropez... what will Mrs Bono say?

Let's hope Bono's wife is not the jealous kind...

For the U2 frontman, 47, Spanish actress Penelope Cruz, 33, and model Helena Christensen have been spotted walking hand-in-hand along a Saint Tropez beach.

Cruz and Bono were also snapped leaving the exclusive VIP Room nightclub in the French Riviera.

Holding hands as they exited the club they cosied up and seemed lost in conversation as they were driven away.

Earlier that day they had taken a boat at the Club 55 harbour in Saint Tropez.

Penelope is currently taking a break from work on the new Woody Allen film, currently shooting in Spain.

She is known to be a big admirer of the U2 frontman and has spoken glowingly of him in the past.

Back in September 2006 she told OK Magazine: "I'm very interested in following up all the work Bono is doing. He's so powerful and so human and seeing him investing all his time and effort is something to admire.

"He's definitely getting the message across - I think he's definitely changing the world."

Father-of-four Bono has worked with Penelope in the past for the RED campaign which works to help HIV sufferers in Africa.

The Irish singer has been married to teen sweetheart Ali Hewson for 25 years.

She also takes charity work very seriously, and founded the EDUN fashion label, which encourages fair trade with third world nations and the abolishment of sweatshops and child labour.
