The Playboy years will soon be over for Jenson Button, as the Brawn GP driver is on his way to getting married later this year. The news was revealed by none other than the soon-to-be Mrs. Button, Japanese model Jessica Michibata.

According to Button's girlfriend, the two will start their own family in November this year, no sooner than the season finale at Abu Dhabi. Why that late? Well, let's say it sounds better to marry a world champion than a contender for the Formula One title.

After several reports in the UK revealed that Button and 24-year old Michibata have decided to cool things off a little bit in order for the British driver to focus solely on winning his first championship crown, the Japanese beauty set the record straight.

"If Jenson wins the title in November we will celebrate a lot and it will be by him getting down on one knee," said Michibata in an interview with British tabloid The People.

In addition, she made it very clear that the reason why the two are no longer seen together that often is because they are very busy with their ongoing commitments. However, she said she doesn't miss a single opportunity to see her hubby in-between racing weekends.

"He flies me first class to meet him whenever we can grab time together," added the future Mrs. Button.
