Way back in September 2009, rap producer The-Dream (a.k.a. Terius Nash) married singer Christina Milian (who I once saw open for ‘N Sync – and I can’t believe I just admitted that to the internet) were married in a quickie wedding. Then, in December, they renewed their vows in a dream wedding in Rome. Apparently though, the couple was separated before the year closed.
The-Dream filed for divorce in Georgia on February 17, 2010 – a mere five and a half months after they tied the knot in Las Vegas. His no-fault grounds for divorce were that the marriage is “irretrievably broken.” (See his divorce petition here.)
Nine days after the divorce was filed, Milian gave birth to their only child, a daughter named Violet, on February 26. Despite the fact that the petition indicates that no children were born of the marriage (which was true at the time of filing), the court will still have jurisdiction to determine custody and support for the baby.
The divorce was not mentioned when Milian spoke with the press in the months leading up to and the days following Violet’s birth. It only became known recently after The-Dream was photographed on vacation with his female personal assistant in less-than-professional circumstances.
He denies that another woman was involved in the demise of the marriage. Milian has intimated to the contrary on her Twitter account.
These two don’t even come close to having the shortest celebrity marriage on the books – but they can surely claim a spot on a list of the shortest.
