The actress was thrilled when her Weeds co-star Jeffrey Dean Morgan popped the question earlier this month.

She has excitedly told friends of her plans to wed but hasn’t set a date for the forthcoming ceremony.

A source close to the couple said: “They’re thrilled as they’re really happy together. They can’t wait to exchange vows and become man and wife.”

Mary-Louise and Jeffrey – who plays Mary-Louise’s character Nancy’s dead husband in the hit US TV show – began dating in 2006 but briefly split in June 2007.

They soon rekindled their romance and, last December, Mary-Louise, 41, accompanied Jeffrey, 43, to the US premiere of his movie P.S. I Love You.

Last November, Mary-Louise adopted a baby girl from Africa. A source said: “Mary-Louise is such an incredible mom. She couldn’t be happier about this.”

The actress also has a three-year-old son, Will, from her relationship with actor Billy Crudup.
