Kat Von D's 'L.A. Ink' TV show has been axed.

The series - which follows the goings on at High Voltage Tattoo, the Los Angeles shop owned by the tattoo artist - is set to finish at the end of the current fourth season, which has seen the 29-year-old star showcasing her wedding plans with motorcycle entrepreneur Jesse James before they were cancelled.

TLC told RadarOnline.com: "TLC has decided that the current season of 'L.A. Ink' will be its last.

"The network is proud of what the series has accomplished in its four seasons, following Kat Von D's journey as an artist from Miami to Los Angeles."

Gil Lopez - executive producer for 'L.A. Ink', which premiered in August 2007 - recently explained how the TV cameras had "full access" to the couple's "fairly tale love story".

He said: "She's bumming. They were both in love. There was the unfortunate distance that tears things apart but she really tried and gave it all. She really committed to it. Like anybody, if you're going to go on an eight or nine month journey and fully commit to someone, when it ends, it's tough. She's got a great attitude.

"We were really able to document what to all of us involved in the story is a fairy tale love story. We really got full access from the moment they got engaged [in January 2011] and how Jesse asked her father and how he proposed, to all the way through her looking for wedding dresses, talks to designers about wedding dresses. She was in love, madly in love."
