plans to marry her agent Jerry Solomon, with whom she visited Bermuda last month.

The Boston Herald reported that Ms Kerrigan and Mr. Solomon would marry in June. The paper quoted friends of the skater for the wedding news.

But a spokesman for the ice queen denied the report yesterday, although he confirmed the two are having a relationship.

"No, it's not true,'' Dewey Blanton told Reuters.

Mr. Solomon's wife, Kathy, filed for divorce last July, citing adultery and desertion. He has a five-year old son from the marriage.

Ms Kerrigan, who skated to a silver medal in the Winter Olympics in Lillehammer after being bruised by associates of rival skater Tonya Harding, recently bought a $500,000 house in Lynnfield, Massachusetts, the paper reported.

Fuel was added to rumours of a romance between Ms Kerrigan, 25, and the older married man when the American tabloid the Enquirer reported they had checked in to a Bermuda "love nest'' in October.

The affair reportedly ended Mr. Solomon's marriage. His wife reportedly called Ms Kerrigan "a homewrecker,'' and "a witch''.

She and Mr. Solomon "spent a romantic weekend holed up'' in a guest cottage on the Island, reporter David Duffy revealed.

"Jerry rented a $350-a-night one-bedroom cottage at the Pink Beach Club on the island's ritzy South Shore, making the reservations in his name,'' Mr.

Duffy reported after a "wide-ranging investigation''.

"He and Nancy stayed inside much of the time. Instead of eating out, they enjoyed intimate dinners in their cottage. When the two went out, they were seen taking long walks -- strolling hand in hand along the shore. They clearly wanted to be alone.'' Since returning from Bermuda, the "lovebirds have gone house-hunting together'', Mr. Duffy said.
