LeAnn Rimes, who turned 27 years old last Friday, August 28, wed back-up dancer Dean Sheremet in February 2002. At that time she was still 19 years old and he was 21 years old. Their marriage was said to be on the rocks amidst allegation that she has an affair with actor Eddie Cibrian, her co-star in TV movie "Northern Lights".
