Rene famously admitted that she “forgot” about her short-lived four-month marriage to ex-husband Kenny Chesney.
“I forgot about that,” she told The Advocate in 2016. “It’s a pretty big thing to forget, isn’t it?”
"'Cute's cute,' she says. 'Handsome is handsome! Sweet is sweet. If it works... I mean... I mean! Sometimes it just doesn't really matter. It just didn't. If there's a spark, it just is, and who needs to explain it?”
