Those naysayers who said it wouldn't last have been proven correct. After a whirlwind romance and a marriage ceremony held on the Caribbean island of St John, it looks like Academy Award-winning actress Renee Zellweger's four month marriage to country star Kenny Chesney has come to an end.

Zellweger filed papers for an annulment on September 14, 2005 in Los Angeles. The two had met in January 2005 while working on the Concert of Hope benefit for tsunami victims and wed shortly thereafter on May 9, 2005. The marriage was the first for both performers.
