Nikki Reed and Paul McDonald

Twilight star Nikki Reed and American Idol alum Paul McDonald are no exceptions when it comes to Hollywood whirlwind romance. They met on the red carpet premiere of Red Riding Hood in March 2011. A month after the meeting, the two confirmed they are a couple. “We’ve been hanging out. It’s been fun so far,” the flooring musician shared on one occasion. Only three months into courtship, they became engaged. “He’s the one,” Reed gushed in an interview with E! Online.

In October 2011, the couple married at a private ranch in Malibu, California and their union was witnessed by 100 guests. Notice how so much can happen within a year? It only took them 7 months to know and marry each other! All seemed well with them until March 2014 came when they announced their separation, citing irreconcilable differences.
