Renee Zellweger is officially single after her brief marriage to country singer Kenny Chesney was annulled. The annulment - granted by Los Angeles Superior Court - means in the eyes of the law the couple never actually wed. Documents obtained this week by television show 'Extra' read: "The judgment of nullity is entered. The parties are declared to be single persons."

Zellweger, 36, and Chesney, 37, met in January, married in May, and split in September when the Oscar-winning actress filed for the annulment from her country superstar spouse. Zellweger cited "fraud" as her reason but later issued a statement saying the term was "simply legal language and not a reflection of Kenny's character."

The pair wed in a small ceremony on the Caribbean island of St. John in the
U.S. Virgin Island. It was the first marriage for both.
