Maybe the second time is the charm. Tuesday morning, a representative for Pamela Anderson confirmed to MTV.com that she is engaged to rocker Kid Rock, again. Earlier, former Playboy playmate and Baywatch star, Pamela Anderson had posted the following on her web site, "Yes, I'm finally getting remarried. It's been a whirlwind ... spontaneous, but well thought through. Feels like I've been stuck in a time warp. I've raised my kids alone in hope of a miracle. Well, my miracle came and went. And came back and came back, because he knew that I'd wake up one day and realize that I was waiting for nothing. I'm moving on ... I feel like I'm finally free ... I'm in love."

 

This isn't the first time that Kid Rock and Pamela Anderson have announced their happy engagement. In 2002, after a year of dating, Robert Ritchie aka Kid Rock asked for Pamela Anderson's hand in marriage. A year later, the couple split up and have been dating on and off since then. There will be no time for cold feet during this engagement as MTV reports that Kid Rock and Pamela Anderson plan to we aboard a yacht in Saint Tropez as early as next weekend, Saturday, July 29th. The couple is vacationing there now.

 

This is far from Pamela Anderson's first flirtation with wedding bells, although it is Kid Rock's first marriage. Pamela Anderson married Tommy Lee on February 19, 1995 after knowing him for only four days. They had two sons and were divorced three years later, in 1998, although were rumored to be on again, off again for years after that. Between Tommy Lee and Kid Rock, Pamela Anderson was engaged to model Marcus Schenkenberg, but that couple never took the wedding plunge. Pamela Anderson wrote in her online diary about how her sons with Tommy Lee, Brandon and Dylan, are taking the whole thing, "I've raised my kids alone in hope of a miracle. Well my miracle came and went. And came back and came back because he knew that I'd wake up one day and realize that I was waiting for nothing. They know the truth and they are strong, smart kids. They love their dad. They love their new Step Dad who they've known for years. Wounds will heal. Some people may never grow up. Actions speak louder than words ... watch!"

 

Pamela Anderson's representative confirmed the engagement to Us Weekly and the story will be featured in the new issue, hitting stands Wednesday. Us Weekly reports the representative for Pamela Anderson as saying "They've been close for a very long time and decided that now is the right time to take the next step. They couldn't be happier about their future together."

 

No word on if Pamela Anderson will now be known as Pamela Rock.
