ET has confirmed that RENEE ZELLWEGER and country crooner KENNY CHESNEY have filed to anull their marriage of just over 4 months.

The two tied the knot in a surprise ceremony back in May on the beautiful island of St. John in the U.S. Virgin Islands, where the singer has a home. In a short, 15-minute ceremony performed by a female preacher in front of a small group of family and friends, the bride wore CAROLINA HERRERA, one of her favorite designers, while the groom was reportedly barefoot.

The two met at the Concert of Hope tsunami relief effort last January 15 and maintained a quiet friendship that quickly blossomed. Fans first learned of their romance when Renee reportedly brought a margarita up on stage to Kenny during his show in Jacksonville, FL.

This was the first marriage for both stars, although the 37-year-old Kenny reportedly broke off an engagement to another woman in 1999, three weeks before the wedding. Prior to marrying Kenny, Renee dated WHITE STRIPES singer JACK WHITE and her 'Me, Myself & Irene' co-star JIM CARREY.

Watch ET tonight for the latest on their split.

It's always sad when people call it quits, but I can't say I'm surprised...

Marrying after 4 months acquaintance is kind of risky.

Wow. That's a shocker...who could have guessed that one...

faster than i thought

sounds like they were both looking for love and marriage but they didn't really know each other and it was based more on hope than actual confidence in the union

It's ironic that renee and kenny knew each other for 4 months and their marriage lasted just as long... while Pam and Tommy knew each other like 4 days and they stayed married for years

At a speed only a bit slower than lighting...

Eh, what's so new about that... just another Hollywood marriage that bites the dust. These people fill for divorces and annulments just as quick and frequently as they change outfits.

Do share when it's ready

Don't forget, celebrity marriage durations have to be converted to dog years.

well i for one am saddened to hear this....
i admire both kenny and renee's approach to their private lives....they are both fairly conservative with what they do and don't share and have always seemed to me to be genuine, caring and humble....

i was suprised to hear of their marriage but genuinely wished them well.....i can see where their similarities lie and i thought they could have been a good influence for eachother...

i wish them both well, separately, of course.....but this seems to be a shame...
so soon....i so often wonder if hollywood stars were able to stick to their relationships the way they do their film and stage projects, what would happen.... and how much more successful those relationships would be if they were at a place where they were willing to let their career take a back seat... and truly be at peace with that...

anyway....best wishes to them both....

That really is sad, even though they got married pretty fast. I wonder what the "fraud" was.

Vans · 16-09-2005

already? I thought they would have lasted much longer. Oh well, I hope they are able to move on and find happiness with other people.
