Reality TV stars motorcycle customizer Jesse James, 42, and tattoo artist Kat Von D, 29, are planning a summer wedding, reports People.
Engaged since January, the star of Monster Garage has been keeping a low profile since his cheating scandal last March and subsequent divorce from Oscar-winning actress Sandra Bullock.
Responding to rumors circulating on the Internet that the couple had broken their engagement, James stated, "That is absolutely not true. We’re still going strong. Things are completely good with us.”
“That’s the furthest thing from the truth,” added Kat Von D, star of LA Ink.
The couple is reportedly planning to get married on their one-year anniversary of their first date.
"That day can’t come soon enough!" said James. “Everything is on track. I am absolutely more in love today than I was a year ago. She’s the one for me."
The couple commuted regularly between Los Angeles, where Von D works, and Austin, Texas, where James lives with his three children Chandler, 16, Jesse Jr., 14 and Sunny, 7. Just prior to his divorce from Sandra Bullock, the couple had adopted little Louis in Louisiana, but ultimately the adoption was finalized with Bullock as a single parent.
Recently, James signed a book deal for his memoir, American Outlaw, which is expected to come out this year. As the former bodyguard heads into his fourth marriage, he hints that the book will reveal his volatile upbringing and addiction issues, saying, “I’ve lived a pretty crazy life.”
