“We got married so quickly”, “On the honeymoon I knew it wasn’t going to work out”, “I don’t know what I was thinking”. Not all marriages are “forever” and much less so in Hollywood. The truth is that famous people live such amazing lives that even their loves and breakups go through a sudden fleeting period. In fact, sometimes marriages last so short that the couple ends up filing for an annulment, without actually getting divorced. That is, in the eyes of the law, it is as if this union was never valid or never occurred. From Renée Zellweger to Nicolas Cage, seven celebrities have gotten married and divorced in record time.
They met in January 2005 at an NBC event to benefit tsunami victims. while Kenny Chesney He was in charge of setting the music that day, Renée Zellweger I answered the groups’ phones. The admiration was so great that in May of the same year, the couple exchanged vows in a secret ceremony on the island of St. John, in the Virgin Islands. but, The poet finished after four months (In the same time it took to cross the altar after the meeting) The actress asked for an annulment of the marriage, citing “fraud” as the reason for the separation. Immediately, speculation began about the country music singer’s sexuality, but Zellweger herself came out to deny it. “The term ‘fraud’, as it appears in the documents, is merely legal language and is not a reflection of Kenny’s qualities. Personally, I would be very grateful if you would refrain from drawing insulting, hurtful, sensationalist and false conclusions, and simply understand that we hope to proceed with this process in the most private way possible,” the protagonist explained. Bridget Jones’s Diary It bothers.
“The only fraud that was committed was to think that I really understood what marriage was, and in fact I didn’t.”The musician explained his part two years later.
They say what happens in Las Vegas stays in Las Vegas! This is what marriage was like Britney Spears With his childhood friend Jason Alexander in January 2004. And it seemed like they were enjoying a typical wild night when they accidentally exchanged rings in the “Wedding Capital of the World.”
“After a few drinks, I ended up in bed with one of my best friends (…) We had a great idea to go The little white church At 3:30 am. When we arrived, there was another couple getting married, so we had to wait. Yes, we are lined up for marriage.”The singer, who was 22 years old at the time, revealed in her memoirs. After only 55 hours, the judge annulled the marriage. She, who married Kevin Federline, the father of her two children, in October of the same year, added: “I was stupid and rebellious and didn’t really take responsibility for what I was doing.”
One of Mario Lopez and Ali Landry It could also be on the podium for the shortest marriages in history, as it only lasted about two weeks. Although the couple loved each other (they had been dating for six years), in this case he was just like that Betrayal on his part at the bachelor party Which led to the breakup. Lopez admitted in his autobiography: “It was a non-stop party for five days. I was drunk and very friendly with a young woman at a college party. I don’t know what I was thinking.” Just between us. Although the former Miss USA found out about the infidelity before she even said yes (she found a photo), the truth is that she went ahead with the wedding because all of her friends and family were already traveling to Mexico for the ceremony. Two weeks later, the model decided to break up.
Others who got married in Las Vegas were as well Carmen Electra and Dennis RodmanHowever, unlike Britney Spears, they were a couple and had been dating for a few months. The year was 1998 and she was at the peak of her career as a female protagonist baywatch While he was the star of the Chicago Bulls. “Carmen and I were drinking in Newport Beach, and we decided to fly to Las Vegas. So we decided on that Since we’re going to Las Vegas, we should get married too. “It made perfect sense for two drunk people.”Athlete revealed.
However, this first attempt failed. Rodman’s lawyers, who had prepared a prenuptial agreement to protect his wealth, prevented him from doing so. Naturally, this increased the couple’s desire to marry, and months later (more precisely on November 14, 1998), they sealed their love in the “Little Flower Chapel”; A place Dennis knew because it was next to his favorite strip club. News spread around the world, and nine days later, Rodman’s agents issued a statement, without his permission, stating that the ceremony was invalid because the bride and groom were “extremely intoxicated.” While she became angry after being deemed a “gold digger,” he was trapped between the woman he loved and his work team, who he hated and saw as a threat. “I know it sounds schizophrenic, but I wanted to get an annulment as quickly as possible so Carmen and I could start over,” he revealed. The second chance came, but it failed again a few months later. She did not demand a single dollar of his wealth.. Dennis later admitted: “If there’s ever a couple in love, it’s us. I’ll go to the grave believing that.”
This is one of the most recent annulled marriages. In April 2018, Nicolas Cage He appeared with a mysterious woman in Puerto Rico while filming his new movie. Months later I learned that it was Erika Koikea professional makeup artist and new actor opening. After a year of dating, the couple married in a ceremony in Las Vegas, but, like everything that happens in that city, the marriage did not last long. Four days later, the protagonist 60 seconds He asked for an annulment of the marriage, arguing that at the time of the “I do” he was extremely drunk, in addition to “irreconcilable differences.”
However, those who saw them arguing outside Clark’s court offered another version of events: Cage accused his wife of having an affair with her ex-boyfriend, calling her a “gold digger.” A witness revealed to the Daily Mail: “Nicholas was out of place and probably drunk. He shouted: ‘You’re going to take all my money.’ “There was a breakup recently. I felt very upset about that and how things happened.”Cage confirmed to the New York Times without elaborating.
They also got married in Las Vegas, annulled their marriage, and remarried some time later. We’re talking about Pamela Anderson and Rick Solomon who exchanged vows in the middle of a magic show in October 2007. And about two months later, the first baywatch I applied for cancellation claiming “fraud”. In court documents. However, seven years later, they married again. “Yes, we did it again and we are very happy,” she said at a charity event in 2014. “Our families are also very happy and that is what really matters.” This second marriage also went through some turmoil. Although six months had passed since the new “I do”, Pamela filed for divorce, accusing the poker player of doing so. “‘Abusive behaviour’ While living together, the couple reconciled. It seems that the third time is not the charm for them, as in 2015 they made their split official for good.
Before marrying Pamela Anderson, Rick Solomon It was a husband Shannen Doherty. That was in 2002, and after two days of meeting, the couple decided to exchange rings. However, nine months later (and shortly before the poker player’s sex tape with Paris Hilton was published), their union was annulled at the request of the actress. “I was madly in love. It was a very difficult marriage. “When it was over, it was heartbreaking,” she told Details magazine.
Over time, the exes encouraged a confrontation via podcast Doherty Smoothing rough edges. “We got married very quickly.”“You always made me laugh,” she admitted, remembering the best part of their relationship.
