Me, too. I'm not surprised about a quick divorce, but I am surprised about it lasting less than 2.5 months? 6 months to a year, I would have thought!NewEnglandLady|1320082913|3051099 said:I don't think anybody could really be surprised, but I honestly thought they'd try to force it to work for a little while longer after having such an elaborate wedding.

But seriously, why do celebrities rush into marriage like this? It was practically doomed from the start - being that they were only dating about 6 months when they got engaged, and from then on it was wedding frenzy. I think that they started to realize they had different values during the wedding planning (when Kris balked at the paparazzi, and was upset about Kim not wanting to change her name/move to Minnesota)...he's obviously a traditional guy and Kim is obviously not ready to give up her socialite celebrity lifestyle, which is understandable - that's how she makes her money. But If they had spent a bit more time to get to know each other and discuss their expectations, life goals, values - they wouldn't have to be getting divorced now.
I think she panicked at the thought of being 30 and single and rushed into this. I think Kris is still young and immature too. Just a disaster fromt he start all around.
10 million dollars spent for nothing!!! What a waste. I hope the guests didn't spend too much money on their gifts.
There are rules about annulment and I think they don't qualify.Pandora|1320101617|3051292 said:I think fast marriages can work (my parents were engaged within 2 weeks of first setting eyes on each other, married within 6 months, have just celebrated their Ruby Wedding and are still crazy about each other) but I think it is a big, big mistake and almost certainly doomed to failure when you mix it with a non-conventional lifestyle.
Does 72 days actually count as a marriage? Couldn't they just get an annulment. How very embarrassing for everyone - let's hope they learn some lessons and thank goodness there were no kids involved.
