Rod Stewart will marry Penny Lancaster next year.

The singer - whose divorce to model Rachel Hunter is now finalized - has dated Penny for six years and the couple plan to marry next spring.

The blonde is delighted the wedding is finally set to go ahead and has thrown herself into organizing the lavish event.

She told Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper, "The wedding plans are all very exciting and are taking up a lot of time. It will be in the UK or Europe - and it will be an intimate day with close friends and family."

Twice-wed Rod proposed to Penny at the Eiffel Tower earlier this year.

The model-turned-photographer, who has a six-month-old son, Alastair, with her fiance, also revealed the couple want more children.

She said, "Having Alastair was the happiest day of my life and we're going to start trying for another baby in a year's time. I love being a mum. I can't imagine life without my son."

Meanwhile, Penny's latest project is shooting the PDSA Pet Pawtraits calendar - featuring celebrities and their pets.

The 35-year-old beauty will be photographing an array of famous people, including Sir Elton John and Simon Cowell.

She said, "I can't wait to have a nosy around their houses. I adore animals so I jumped at the chance."
