Courtney Love and Edward Norton
Hollywood types are notorious for their revolving-door marriages. Often you see magazines talking about some actor who's on their third, fourth, or eighth marriage. You can't always blame them because celebrities are under an enormous amount of pressure to look and act a certain way. It seems like celebrities get married more quickly, more often, and for shorter time periods than us regular people.
Some celebrity marriages are as short as a week! But what happens when a celebrity couple announces to the world that they are engaged but then the relationship fizzles out? It is much easier to break up than to wait and get divorced later. These couples didn't even make it to the altar.... Love and Norton met on the set of The People vs. Larry Flynt and had a six year relationship. They were engaged for about six months before calling it quits in 2001.
