Pamela Anderson, Kid Rock to marry on July 29

LOS ANGELES, July 19 (Reuters) The on-again, off-again love affair between actress Pamela Anderson and singer Kid Rock is on again and this time they plan to marry.

The former Playboy model and the Detroit rap-rocker will exchange vows on July 29 aboard a yacht near the French Riviera city of St Tropez, the celebrity magazine US Weekly reported.

''Yes, I'm finally getting remarried ... I'm in love. I'm happy,'' Anderson wrote on her Web site, pamelaanderson.com, in an entry yesterday.

Anderson's spokeswoman declined to comment but US quoted an Anderson representative as saying, ''They have been close for a very long time and decided that now is the right time to take the next step.'' Anderson, 39, and Rock, 35, whose recordings include 1998's ''Devil Without a Cause,'' have been romantically linked since the early 2000s but broke off their relationship in 2003.

Recently, they have been seen together vacationing along the Riviera.

The blond actress, who gained stardom in the 1990s on TV show ''Baywatch,'' was previously married to drummer Tommy Lee of rock band Motley Crue with whom she had two sons.
