The real SPECIAL relationship: How David Miliband and Hillary Clinton have been at it for ages

By Daily Mail Reporter

FEBRUARY 2009: 'This work experience boy is being a bit over-familiar,' thinks Hillary, as the pair meet for the first time in Washington last year

Britain's long-standing alliance with America might have become strained in recent years, but there's one 'special relationship' that shows no sign of waning.

Ever since Hillary Clinton, a former First Lady of a certain age, met British Foreign Secretary - and gawky Mr Bean lookalike - David Miliband, they've only had eyes for each other.

The pair were snapped again this week giggling together in matching cagoules at a G8 summit in Canada. But as our album shows, they've been at it for ages


MARCH 2009: After discovering that David is, in fact, the forty-something Foreign Minister, Hillary warms to him. He responds by ungallantly laughing at her dolly-inspired jacket


MARCH 2009: The next day, Hillary politely declines David's offer to re-enact his famous 'clowning around with a banana' routine in the middle of an important meeting in Belgium


MARCH 2009: Two weeks later, and Hillary is wondering how to tell David that his new haircut makes him look uncannily like an Action man doll


APRIL 2009: At the G20 summit, Miliband proves he knows how to make Hillary laugh. 'And then I told Gordon Brown: "Don't worry, you have my full support"'


DECEMBER 2009: 'You didn't tell me you'd be wearing red too!' Hillary playfully admonishes David at a Nato meeting in Brussels


JANUARY 2010: A rare setback as Hillary is unamused by David's favourite joke about the bishop and the actress


JANUARY 2010: 'Does my grey patch make me look statesmanlike?' David asks hopefully


MARCH 2010: They say that after a while, couples start to dress alike - judging by these his 'n' hers cagoules, Hilly and Mill's friendship is still going strong
