Some Hollywood marriages last for ages and become the ultimate relationship goals, like Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick or Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson. Others, on the other hand, can't even make it a full year or even a full week. Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries got divorced after 72 days, for example, while Lisa Marie Presley and Nic Cage did only a little better and made it three months before calling it quits.

It will forever be a mystery to us why some of these romances came to a sudden halt. But others, for reasons like age, incompatibility, or rushing to the altar, we all saw coming. Here, we've gathered the shortest marriages in Hollywood history. Read on — we're guessing some of them were so short you might have missed them.
