Actress Elizabeth Hurley and businessman Arun Nayar were divorced today after four years of marriage, in a hearing in London that the Mirror notes was 92 seconds long. Neither Hurley nor Nayar was in court to hear their names read out along with those of 27 other divorcing couples. The grounds given for the divorce was Nayar's "unreasonable behavior." Court papers explain that the judge "held that the respondent (Mr Nayar) has behaved in such a way that the petitioner (Hurley) cannot be reasonably expected to live with the respondent."

Hurley announced last December that the couple had separated. She has since been romantically linked to Australian cricket star Shane Warne, but even that hasn't been without hiccups. Hurley, 46, dated actor Hugh Grant for more than a decade and has a nine-year-old son, Damian, from a relationship with film producer Steve Bing.
