“My advice to anyone is to not get married in Vegas. Do not get married at the drive-thru in Vegas, especially. Take your time – enjoy it! It’s important to think out marriage in general because it’s a huge commitment. Besides that, I hate to say it, but it’s a lot of paperwork and a lot of emotions. It can be difficult,” Carmen told People.
The pair reconciled but ultimately divorced in April of the following year.

“I’ve always believed it best to admit one’s mistakes as quickly as possible. I am trying to make my own decisions now after years of having them made for me. I’m bound to make wrong ones from time to time, and this was one of those times,” Cher reportedly said in a statement.
Ultimately the couple reconciled but were once again on the brink of divorce 1976. When the couple discovered they were expecting their first child, they held on but finally split for good in 1977.
5. Eddie Murphy & Tracey Edmonds – 14 days

The ceremony took place on New Year’s Day while the couple were vacationing on a private island off Bora Bora. Unfortunately, something took a turn in the following weeks and 14 days after saying “I do,” the couple split.
“After much consideration and discussion, we have jointly decided that we will forego having a legal ceremony as it is not necessary to define our relationship further. While the recent symbolic union in Bora Bora was representative of our deep love, friendship and respect that we have for one another on a spiritual level, we have decided to remain friends,” the couple told People.
