Robert Downey Jr set to wed Susan Levin

Aug 15, 2005, 14:42 GMT

Robert Downey Jr is set to wed fiancée Susan Levin at the end of the month.

Insiders say the Hollywood actor and the film producer will walk down the aisle "somewhere on America's East Coast" on August 28.

Robert proposed to Susan in 2003 after meeting her on the set of his movie 'Gothika'.

He said shortly afterwards: "I got her a ring for her birthday. It's an engagement ring. It's not sized right, so right now it's on her middle finger."

The once-troubled actor recently said he believes he'll stay away from drugs after well-publicised years of substance abuse.

Robert added that Susan was one of the reasons he is staying clean, after she gave him an ultimatum.

He explained recently: "Susan said, 'Don't do any more or I'm splitting.'"

Robert, who has been jailed several times because of his  drug problems, has been married once before to actress Deborah Falconer, with whom he has a son, Indio.

They married in 1992, after knowing each other for only 42 days, but separated in 1996, when Robert's escalating drug addictions began getting him into legal trouble.

Their divorce was finalised in April 2004, leaving Robert free to wed Susan.Deborah once limited Robert's contact with Indio, but the star's recent efforts to stay clean and sober have led to an improved relationship with his son.
