The 'Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street' director - who has a yet to be named one-month-old daughter and four-year-old son Billy with the British actress - is set to marry Helena six years after he first proposed.
He told the Radio Times magazine: "Helena and I have been engaged for more than six years and we feel married already so we never got around to it, but I'm thinking about it now.
"I'm a late bloomer."
Tim and Helena first met when she starred in his remake of 'Planet of the Apes' in 2001.
She has since featured in his movies 'Big Fish', 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory', 'Corpse Bride' and 'Sweeney Todd...'.
Helena recently said of her part in musical 'Sweeney Todd...': "I would safely say it made it much harder for me to get the part because the director was my boyfriend.
"He told me you look right for it, and potentially you are perfect for the role, but we have no idea if you can sing. I said I will go away and try to learn, but I had to be righter than right. For my sake, I didn't want to feel like I got the part just because I slept with the director."
