Renée Zellweger Ex-Husband: Who is Kenny Chesney?

Renée Zellweger is an actress from the United States. In May 2005, Zellweger married singer Kenny Chesney.

After just four months, however, the couple broke up, with the actress filing for an annulment. She cited “fraud” as the reason at the time, leading to much speculation from fans.

However, speaking to Oprah in 2010, Mr Chesney said the relationship fell apart because he panicked.

After filing for the annulment in September 2005, Zellweger issued a statement clarifying that the term “fraud” was “simply legal language and not a reflection of Kenny’s character.”

“I’d said all I needed to say on that subject,” she told The Advocate when asked if she felt she needed to defend Chesney at the time.

“I’m an old-fashioned gal who doesn’t feel it’s appropriate to hang out your laundry on the lawn. I feel you devalue yourself as a human being when you share very personal things with a bajillion strangers who are making fun of you. I just don’t see that there’s any dignity in that.”

Kenny Chesney has released over 20 albums and had over 40 Top 10 singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs and Country Airplay charts in the United States, 32 of which reached number one.

Kenny Chesney has received twelve Country Music Association Awards, eleven Academy of Country Music Awards (including four consecutive Entertainer of the Year honours from 2005 to 2008), and six Grammy Award nominations.
