Christina Applegate set to wed

Christina Applegate is getting married.

The 'Samantha Who' actress is set to tie the knot with musician Martyn LeNoble after he popped the question on Valentine's Day (14.02.10).

Her spokesperson confirmed in a statement: "The couple, who have been dating for two years, got engaged on February 14, 2010. There is no set date for the wedding at this time."

The 37-year-old actress - who battled breast cancer in 2008 - has admitted she wants to start a family with the 41-year-old Porno for Pyros rocker.

She said recently: "What's next? Babies, lots of babies. Not lots of babies, but a couple."

Christina - who had a double mastectomy after being diagnosed with cancer in August 2008 - has previously credited Martyn for helping her overcome the disease.

She said: "I have a small but mighty support system and Martyn has really been an incredible part of my life. Without him, I don't know if I could've gone through any of it. He came around at a time when there was a lot of loss in my life on many levels, so he's been a really incredible help."

This will not be the first trip down the aisle for either star.

Christina filed for divorce from actor Johnathon Schaech in 2005 - four years after they married - citing irreconcilable differences, with the end of their union made official in August 2007.

It will also be Martyn's second marriage.
