LL Cool J has denied reports that his 13 year marriage is faltering.

The rapper recently celebrated his anniversary with wife Simone Johnson and insist that there is no rift between the pair.

He told OK!: "I promise you, I'm not breaking up. Kill that rumour."

The reports of problems began when he was spotted without his wedding ring but he says that's because he is getting a new one.

He adds: "To be honest with you, I'm getting my wedding ring upgraded. I'm getting it hooked up... She's going to get hers upgraded too.”
