Renee Zellweger & Kenny Chesney Split
Entertainment Tonight ^

Posted on 09/15/2005 3:17:44 PM PDT by TightyRighty

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.

Just read on people.com that Kenny called off a wedding three weeks beforehand in a 1999 engagement.

about surprise wedding

EXCERPT

But Tim McGraw said he was thrown for a loop.

“I thought he was gay for the longest time!” said Tim, sporting a big grin and causing wife Faith Hill to laugh. “This surprised the hell out of me!”

You think Faith & Tim are still on Kenny's Christmas card list? ;)

First, I was not surprised of that sudden marriage. Rene has been trying to get married for yrs. I felt she was in love with the idea of marriage. Now that she's gotten the taste of marriage, she'll think twice the next time. The very worst person type to marry would be a popular rock or country singer. Those groupies at all concerts and the one night stands by the rockers is well known.

Since Rene is a regular type person, growing up in Katy, TX with non-hollyweirdo values...she'd not put up with an on the road rockers lifestyle.

In the end, Rene will marry a non type hollyweirdo man...and live happily the rest of her life. Rene has actual grass root values similar to FReepers. (Also, her success did not start on the couch as many successful women actresses.)

Tim is one of Kenny's closest friends. I think he was joshing.

That would probably explain why they never sent you a thank you note... but here's one in it's place... "thanks for the lovely silver place setting - we use it every day - it was so good seeing you at our wedding - yada yada yada"

Is it me or does Renee always look like she's suffering from a bee-stung face?

They live next door to each other and Faith decorated Kenny's house.

My spouse says Kenny fooled around with plenty of women in college, but the "fraud" charge made us both wonder.

NEW YORK Sep 16, 2005 — Renee Zellweger, who has filed for an annulment from husband Kenny Chesney after just four months of marriage, says the couple "hope to experience this transition as privately as possible."

In court papers filed Wednesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court, the Oscar-winning actress listed "fraud" as the reason for the breakup with the country music star.

The term was "simply legal language and not a refection of Kenny's character," Zellweger said in a statement Friday.
