…Celebrities are famous for many things: their talent, their beauty, their families, their money, and… their marriages.
Many people believe that famous people who get married to each other are 50% more likely to end up in divorce, compared to ordinary people. However, we know a few celeb couples who proved to everyone that they are meant for each other, such as Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively or David and Victoria Beckham.
We’re happy that they love each other, but this is not our topic for today. We wanted to know more about some of the marriages that fall into the extreme category, due to their short lives.
There are many reasons why it seems like a lot of famous people can’t stay married for too long, such as cheating, irreconcilable differences, abuse accusations, being too much in the media eye, and so many other things.
If you’ve ever wondered how much a short marriage lasts, we have your answer. Here are the top 7 shortest celeb marriages of all time!
Kim Kardashian married then NBA basketball player in 2011, but their union wasn’t meant to last. The whole ceremony was documented for their show, “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” and even though they seemed happy back then, the truth is that everything was a little rushed.
Kim stated that she felt pressured to marry her fiancé and she realized she moved too fast when they were on their honeymoon. She filed for divorce only 72 days later, but the whole process lasted until 2013, shortly before she gave birth to her first daughter with Kanye West, North.
Pamela Anderson And Rick Salomon were married twice, which might make you think that they didn’t get along the first time, but they couldn’t live without each other, so they gave it another shot.
But this is not true. Their second marriage lasted only 60 days and during the divorce process, they made a lot of severe accusations against each other.
…What can we say, if a relationship is toxic, it is better to stay out of it!
In 1994, actress Drew Barrymore decided to get married to 31-year-old bar owner Jeremy Thomas. But their life as husband and wife didn’t last longer than 39 days. She stated that she realized she made a mistake shortly after they said yes and decided it was better for both of them to go their separate ways.
Irish singer Sinead O’Connor and psychotherapist Barry Herridge got married in a beautiful pink Cadillac, but their marriage wasn’t pink at all! The whole thing lasted for 18 days when the singer announced on her social media platform that she is no longer in a relationship with her husband. According to several fans of hers, O’Connor is known for shocking people with her performances and her turbulent personal life.
Another famous celeb who is on the list of the shortest marriages in London is a beloved comedian and actor Eddie Murphy, who was married to businesswoman Tracey Edmonds for no more than two weeks.
In conformity with several sources, they got married in Bora Bora in 2008 and technically, their marriage wasn’t legal in the US. After 14 days of living as a “husband and wife”, the actor told People magazine that they won’t have a legal ceremony, because they don’t want to continue their relationship anymore.
As you might already know, besides his impressive and successful career, Eddie Murphy is known for having multiple children with several women, so we can say that he is quite a doubtful guy when it comes to the right woman for him.
Actress Carmen Electra and former professional basketball player Dennis Rodman got married in Las Vegas at the famed Chapel of the Flowers. According to several sources, both of them had serious personal problems at the time and their marriage was nothing but a mistake.
They decided to separate after just 9 days of being married when Rodman asked for an annulment. Since then, both of them had been married several times, but they still struggle with finding their forever soulmate.
…We saved the best for last!
In 2004, Britney Spears married Jason Alexander at The Little White Chapel in Las Vegas, but they signed an annulment only 55 hours later. They didn’t make any statements at the time, but a few years after the whole incident, some sources say that Alexander and Spears were actually tricked by her family to sign the papers and break their marriage.
The same source says that they loved each other very much and they were promised a real wedding if they sign the annulment and still love each other after 6 months. However, shortly after the breakup, Britney Spears got married to Kevin Federline.
