I guess the rumors were correct, Kenny and Rene have announced they will be seeking an annulment. When I heard this last night (sorry I didn't post this until this morning), I was a bit surprised but at the same time reporters have been saying they were in trouble shortly after they got married. It's too bad because they seemed like a pretty good couple. I have a feeling their careers are just too busy for them to work on a marriage or even enjoy each other. The single life is probably the better way to go for these people until their careers have chilled out some.I'm sure plenty of women out there are breathing a sigh of relief now that Kenny is back on the market. LOL!
Here are a few reports from this morning's news:

Kenny Chesney and Renee Zellweger are annulling their five-month marriage, Chesney's publicist confirmed Thursday afternoon (Sept. 15).
Another source close to Chesney said Zellweger was in New York when she initiated the annulment proceedings and that the singer received the news Wednesday (Sept. 14) in Nashville.
The couple married May 9 on the island of St. John in the U.S. Virgin Islands, where he owns a house. It was the first marriage for both.

Washington: After only four-months, Hollywood actress Renee Zellweger and country singer Kenny Chesney are having their marriage annulled.
The Oscar-winning actress reportedly filed for an annulment from her country star husband on Wednesday (14Sep05) in Los Angeles.
"The reports are true," E! Online quoted Zellweger's spokesperson Nanci Ryder as saying.
"There are no further details," she added Zellweger, 36, and Chesney, 37, wed May 9 on a beach in the Virgin Islands, which happened about five months after the couple met at a tsunami relief benefit in January 2005.
The marriage was the first for both.

Oscar-winning actress Renee Zellweger and country singer Kenny Chesney are seeking an annulment after four months of marriage.
The Bridget Jones star, 36, married Chesney, 37, on a Caribbean beach in May, having met four months earlier at a benefit for tsunami victims.
In court papers Zellweger listed "fraud" as the reason for the break-up but did not elaborate.
Chesney is one of the biggest country music stars in the US.
He was named entertainer of the year at the US Academy of Country Music awards in May, with hits including Me and You and She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy.
Zellweger won a best supporting actress Oscar for Cold Mountain in 2004, and was also nominated for her roles in Chicago and Bridget Jones's Diary.
It was the first marriage for both Zellweger and Chesney.
Marriage 'invalid': (This gives a good explaination of what an annulment is)
In US law, an annulment is a decree that a marriage was invalid from its outset.
Anyone seeking an annulment on the grounds of "fraud" must prove that their partner misrepresented some matter that was vital to the marriage.
This may include the concealment of a fact such as an existing spouse, permanent impotence or a criminal history.
If either party was under the influence of drugs or alcohol when the marriage took place, it may also be grounds for its annulment.
However, Zellweger's lawyer and her spokeswoman Nanci Ryder declined to give any details regarding the "fraud" claim in this case.
In her court submission, Zellweger also demanded that the court rule out the possibility of spousal financial support for Chesney.
The pair first met at the Concert of Hope tsunami relief benefit in January, where Chesney was singing and Zellweger was answering telephones.
