Actor Mark Wahlberg, and his longtime girlfriend Rhea Durham, are thinking about the birth of their third child and thinking about getting married. The couple is expecting their next child together in September, and plan to tie the knot in the summer of 2009.

According to People.com, Wahlberg talked about getting married to Rhea. "She wants to wait until after the baby. We've been very fortunate. We've waited and worked hard to really strengthen our relationship. We want it right. We're ready. I'm ready. She's been ready, but I think you know, we both come from broken homes and we want to succeed."

Wahlberg, 37, is starring in the new thriller "The Happening."

He added that they are still ironing out the wedding details, but "it's going to be a beautiful occasion. Very intimate."

The couple already has two children, Ella, 4 and Mike, 2.
