I used to think that too but have seen many, and I mean, MANY, of celebs get "annulments" when no fraud was apparent....and even after years of marriage.
Maybe it has more to do with $$ than anything else. Maybe with annulments, spousal support (or lack of) is an issue.
I don't have a clue and shouldn't speculate because I don't know that much about it.

Back in the day an annulment meant that the marriage hadn't been consummated.... Somehow I doubt that is the case here....

Went and looked up causes....aside from being too closely related, being drunk, insane or kidnapped at the time of the wedding, intending not to be faithful (wow, a lot of "Hollywood marriages" could fail that one), fraud is the biggie. Of course there are Catholic church rules as well as legal ones.

From what I read they got married in August of 2010. She was married a while. Also, she was married when she won and was featured as one of the "bachelorettes" of country in some magazine. If she made money on that, it's fraud.
