Why do most celebritiy couples get a divorce after only 1 or 2 years of marriage?

I don't know if "most" is accurate, but my answer would be because of their lifestyles. Especially for actors and singers. They spend so much time on the road, or filming or recording that they don't put the effort into building a relationship, especially at the beginning of a marriage.

Also, a lot of actors "fall in love" with their counterparts. Spend several months together every day and it's an easy thing to do. The problem is, they date and get married, but then while filming another movie later on, the same thing happens with another person. Instead of caring that they are already married, they build a relationship with the new person, resulting in broken marriages.

They get in competition over their stardom

Because they are not really in love.

Because most celebrities never outgrow the narcissistic stage in their development. Because of all the "worship" from the public, they feel that they are more important--more worthy--more intelligent---more beautiful--more EVERYTHING than they actually are. In a marriage, two narcissists don't have a chance.

In a nutshell, they can't truly love another person because they are too much in love with themselves.

They make their living pretending to be someone they are not. Then they get home and don't know who they are.

why do half of all marriages end up in divorce within a year of marriage? and half of that end-up in divorce within 10 years? cuz it takes both people to work at it and its not a big game or for the man to take care of the woman or for the woman to be some kind of house keeper and cook. its a 50/50 right down the middle for both parties. but thats just my opinion

its hard to find true love with that kinda life style

jules

Because they usually meet on a movie set, and confuse physical attraction with the kind of love that is needed to make a lasting marriage. So next time they are away from home, in some romantic location, they do it all over again.
Sadly it is not only celebrities who fall into this trap of false love.

Because of their lifestyles/careers... they're so obsessed with themselves that it's hard to compromise with others.

lilly

everyone is in their business and then rumors start. so much pressure, they think its better to just divorce.

Dulos

Hollywood is more fairy tale thinking than reality... marriage takes work and unselfishness...not cute buns and good bone structure....

spanishchihuahua

normally because the opposite cant stand the other being drooled over by other men/women

- hooroo !

Most celebs are narcissistic and it's almost impossible for two narcissists to fulfill each other's needs.

When U have wealth and opportunity of meeting new people, When you a Actor and have to look romantically in someones else eyes, when u see ur partner as a trophy and not life long companion, then you have a marriage based on "season" and not substance!

its hard to find love living the life as a celeb
it also kind of depends on what list they are on
like the A B C D E list
As & Bs listers most of the time dont last long

kuro

'cus there's just sooo many pretty(and handsome) people in show business so you just can't stick to one for too long

Discovery

not only celebrity couples. the first 1 or 2 yrs is important, you find out if you can stand each other a not.

Michael2832

I think when they are together, they can never really be alone!

The*Hazard*

Because for one a marrage is an easy way to get back in the public eye, and so is a divorce. Also, tabloids with so many rumors can be a real stresser on relationships. Also, they both would have A personalities, used to getting what they want, not being on the same level with someone else, and finally people throw themselves at celeberies, so cheating is common

I think what everyone said plays a part to all the divorces oh and home wreckers like angelina jolie

princessangelgale

They are shallow, self centered people wrapped up in their own life.

goofy

High_Sun

to collect money,their home,anything they have.Things never can be perfect.

just hanging around

rushed into

Maybe because there are so many good pickings in Hollywood. I've never heard of a moralistic actor/actress. In these days you don't become a famous actor unless your willing to show some skin and sometimes more to the world. What was that Madonna said? Oh yeah, she said, I f***** my way to the top. ;-)

Is there really room for two large egos in one small relationship?

Then there is the considerable time spent apart when one or the other is off filming/recording/touring.

Then there is the constant gossip-column trash designed specifically to tear the relationship apart.

lifestyle, money, stress of the media

Gabby_Gabby_Purrsalot

Publicity mainly. That stardom lifestyle tends to lead to loose morals.

I think they truly don't have time for a relationship. Either they are trying to make a movie, video or whatever and it makes it hard for couples to stay committed. I think when they are together in the beginning, they like the attraction and fun but later, their careers get in the way and unfortunately, they pick their careers over their relationships.
