Jim Carrey and Lauren Holly

When you are in a high-profile relationship, there’s quite a bit of pressure. When comedian and actor Jim Carrey started dating ’90s icon Lauren Holly, he had recently exited a marriage with actress Melissa Womer. As such, “[tabloids] keep calling me a homewrecker,” Holly told Rolling Stone upon her engagement to Carrey in 1995. Sadly, it seems those negative tabloid headlines were something of an omen…
While Carrey and Holly enjoyed a wonderful wedding in September 1996, their marriage did not last very long at all. One of the shortest in Hollywood, all the separation papers were signed, sealed, and delivered less than a year later, in the summer of 1997.
