The 11 Shortest Celebrity Marriages You Forgot About
From 55 hours to 72 days, these are some of the shortest celebrity marriages in the history of Hollywood.
Celebrity marriages are one of the hottest and most talked about moments in entertainment. From the moment the couple meets to their special wedding day, fans love to hear about it all: wedding venues, who designed their wedding dress, honeymoon destinations, and if they plan to start a family. There was a time when Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were the power couple in Hollywood. Today, that crown is worn by none other than Jay-Z and Beyoncé. But nuptials don’t always last, even in the lives of these megastars. Britney Spears, Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez, and more, are some of the biggest names in the industry who've also been part of some of the shortest marriages in Hollywood history. For them, it just didn’t. Work. Out.
