Kat Von D and Jesse James have called off their engagement once again, and she’s definitely not moving to Texas, the former star of ‘L.A. Ink’ has announced.

‘I am not in a relationship. (And I apologize for all the ‘back and forth’ if it’s caused any confusion),’ she said in a Facebook post Friday aimed at answering some recurring questions and clearing up some of the confusion she says she’s faced since the reality show ended Sept. 15.

In the final episode, Von D suggested that she and her West Coast Choppers beau open the ‘Jesse Von Kat Tattoo and Motorcycle Emporium’ in James’ neck of the woods, to address some of the problems they were dealing with as they juggled their jobs and a long-distance relationship between L.A. and Austin.

‘It was clear to me that we were just on two different paths in life,’ Von D told People magazine on Saturday, adding, ‘I wish Jesse nothing but the best in life and in love.’ The couple, who went public last September and got engaged in January, split up right before the final season of ‘L.A. Ink’ premiered, then got back together in August. James’ split from Sandra Bullock, his third wife, was finalized in June 2010.

Other points clarified by Von D: The tattoo artist and gallery owner is not leaving High Voltage Tattoo, not retiring, and not unhappy to have done four seasons of ‘L.A. Ink.’
