Remember Jesse James, the husband who stepped out on Oscar-winner Sandra Bullock with a possibly Nazi-sympathizing tattooed model? Yeah, well, he's engaged. The lucky lady is none other than TLC tattoo queen Kat Von D.
In a statement to People, James said:
"You know sometimes the public and press gets it wrong. This is one of those times. 2010 was actually the best year of my life because I fell in love with my best friend. An amazing woman who stood behind me when the world turned their backs. I have never met anyone so kind and loving and committed to making the world a better place every day. My love for her is beyond description. So honored that she said 'yes.' Growing old with her is going to be a fuckin' blast!"
In March, James publicly apologized to Bullock for his "poor judgment" after it surfaced that he'd had a months-long affair with model Michelle "Bombshell" McGee. The scandal broke only weeks after Bullock won a best actress Academy Award for her role in "The Blind Side." In April, Bullock revealed that she was the new mom of a son, Louis Bardo, and that James had started the adoption process while the couple was still together.
Von D was most recently attached to Motley Crue's Nikki Sixx.
