'Bridget Jones' star Renee Zellweger has announced that she is having her four-month-old marriage to country star Kenny Chesney annulled. Although spokespeople for both sides refused to elaborate, the reason cited for the annulment was listed as 'fraud.'
The couple got married in May in the U.S. Virgin Islands after a whirlwind romance. The couple had just met in January of this year during a fund raiser for tsunami relief. It was the first marriage for both the 36-year-old Zellweger and the 37-year-old Chesney.
Zellweger is best known as the star of 'Bridget Jones Diary' for which she was nominated for an Academy Award. She was also nominated for her work in 'Chicago' and won an Oscar for best supporting actress for her role in 'Cold Mountain.'
Chesney was named Country Music Association entertainer of the year in November, while his 'When the Sun Goes Down' was named album of the year. His hits include 'Me and You' and 'She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy.'
