Actress Cybill Shepherd has become engaged, she has announced.

The 'Taxi Driver' star has agreed to marry jeweller-turned-psychologist Andrei Nikolajevic.

Until her recent engagement, Shepherd - who was formerly married to David Ford and Bruce Oppenheim - ruled out the possibility of finding a permanent life partner.

She told New York's Daily News: "I never thought I'd get married again.

The 'Moonlighting' and 'Cybill' actress admitted that the proposal was "very romantic and on one knee."

The 62-year-old screen star has three adult children from her previous marriages.

In 1978 she married auto parts dealer and nightclub entertainer David M. Ford and the following year became pregnant with daughter Clementine Ford. They divorced in 1982.

In 1987 she became pregnant by chiropractor Bruce Oppenheim and married him, giving birth to twins Cyrus Zachariah and Molly Ariel Shepherd-Oppenheim during the fourth season of 'Moonlighting'.

They were divorced in 1990.
