This will be the Golden Globe nominee's third time down the aisle following failed marriages to General Hospital star Tyler Christopher and Spurs point guard Tony Parker.

Speaking to US Weekly, she said: 'What makes my relationship with Pepe so much sweeter is that I don't put pressure on myself or the idea of marriage as much as I did when I was younger.'

'I wanted to walk down the aisle, I wanted a dress, I wanted the church. Once you realize a wedding isn’t a marriage, then you can learn to appreciate it more, and it lessens the expectations when you’ve gone through it.'
