There are no immediate plans for marriage between Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy.

People magazine reports that the pair, who started dating in 2005 and kept their relationship on the down-low, are happy just dating one another, with no immediate plans to take the relationship to the next level.

“We’re happy with the way things are. We have no plans to get married,” McCarthy tells the TV entertainment show “Extra.”

The romance between the pair went from down-low to upfront in the summer of 2006, where the couple was spotted everywhere, holding hands and cuddling with one another. The two just returned from Italy, where they were guests at TomKat’s wedding.

According to a source, Carrey is very happy in the relationship.
