How long did the shortest marriage last: just 3 minutes - and that's no joke, unfortunately
The happiest marriages are considered to be those that last a lifetime, but history knows a completely different rating.
The world's shortest marriage has been recorded, lasting only 3 minutes.
A couple from Kuwait made history by staying married for only 3 minutes. An unexpected turn of events played a fatal role, and the newlyweds decided to divorce without leaving the ceremony.
Let's see what other couples tried to create a strong family, but were too disappointed in each other to maintain the relationship for a long time.
Ranking of the shortest marriages
So, the top five most fleeting marriages include famous couples whose names are familiar to millions of fans around the world. However, their status did not prevent them from ending their relationship extremely quickly.
So, in second place in the ranking of the shortest marriages was the American actress Zsa Zsa Gabor, who married the Mexican Count Felipe de Alba in 1983. And the very next day the couple scandalously divorced due to disagreements.
Third place went to singer Britney Spears and Jason Alexander. They got engaged in the hopes of living the most colorful family life, but after 55 hours they got divorced.
Star couple Nicolas Cage and Erika Koike stayed married for 4 days after registering their marriage in 2019. The actor himself wanted to break up this union.
In fifth place were Tracey Edmonds and Eddie Murphy. Their marriage lasted 14 days. They got married, exchanged vows and rings. But after only 14 days, the couple announced their separation.
An ideal marriage may seem cloudless and easy only on the surface. In reality, it requires effort and power from both partners.
