The 13 Shortest Celebrity Marriages
I've had cups in my room for longer
I've had cups in my room for longer
Helen Hunt and Hank Azaria
Duration: 11 months
Notes: We are going from longest to shortest, so buckle in. Hunt dated Azaria—you might know him for his voice work on the Simpsons—for five years, but they separated after not even one together. Irreconcilable differences—they'll get ya every time.
Drew Barrymore and Tom Green
Duration: 5 months
Notes: When the lead-up to the marriage lasts longer than the marriage itself. After they met in 2000, Barrymore and the comedian frequently teased the media that they planned to wed. They eventually did in July 2001...then separated that December.
Sophia Bush and Chad Michael Murray
Duration: 5 months
Notes: "We were two stupid kids who had no business being in a relationship in the first place," Bush said during a 2014 appearance on Watch What Happens Live. "To all the other costars who've worked it out, more power to you." They did, however, keep it together professionally on One Tree Hill, though it's easy to see how they could've ended up on this list.
Shannen Doherty and Ashley Hamilton
Duration: 5 months
Notes: They were young (her 22 to his 19). They knew each other for two weeks. You do the math.
Pamela Anderson and Kid Rock
Duration: 4 months
Notes: They got engaged twice and had three ceremonies, which ought to have been a sign.
Jennifer Lopez and Cris Judd
Duration: 4 months
Notes: They fell in love on the set of her "Love Don't Cost a Thing" music video in 2001, after which Judd was thrown to the media sharks. While he has said the pressure of fame wasn't what eroded their relationship, he also said this about her other relationships. "I think that it's that it is work. It's whether you want to work on it or not. Everyone has baggage and problems. It's whether you want to deal with those problems." Fair enough.
Jennifer Esposito and Bradley Cooper
Duration: 4 months
Notes: In an interview with Howard Stern, Cooper said the short-lived union "was just something that happened." Damn, son.
Renee Zellweger and Kenny Chesney
Duration: 4 months
Notes: So...someone didn't bother writing a mission statement/syllabus? Celebrity divorce announcements are always pretty bizarre, but this one takes the huh cake: "The miscommunication of the objective of their marriage at the start is the only reason for this annulment."
Lisa Marie Presley and Nicolas Cage
Duration: 3 months
Notes: Or 108 days. Prior to Cage, Presley had been married to Michael Jackson for 9 months.
Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries
Duration: 72 famous days
Notes: She knew on their honeymoon that it wouldn't work out.
Drew Barrymore and Jeremy Thomas
Duration: 39 days
Notes: Before Tom Green, there was Thomas, a Welsh bar owner 14 years Barrymore's senior. They knew each other for six weeks, which is coincidentally about how long they were husband and wife before she filed for divorce.
Carmen Electra and Dennis Rodman
Duration: 6 days
Notes: He filed first, claiming he was inebriated when it happened. He then rescinded the claim. Six months later, *she* called it off. (Then, as we all know, he went to North Korea.)
Britney Spears and Jason Alexander
Duration: 2 whole days
Notes: Never forget this tale of woe, about how one of the world's most famous pop stars and her childhood friend were torn apart. (Although the official reason was that she "lacked understanding of her actions to the extent that she was incapable of agreeing to marriage.")
