Celebrity romances are often as unpredictable as the characters they play on the big screen. The short-lived marriage of Hollywood heartthrob Jeremy Renner and his ex-wife Sonni Pacheco is no exception. Jeremy Renner and Pacheco's daughter, Ava was born on the 28th of March 2013, almost a year before the duo got married in January 2014. The union was brief, with the couple calling it quits just ten months later.
Their separation was far from amicable as the couple engaged in a bitter custody battle that lasted for years following their divorce in 2015. The drama between the former couple played out in the public eye, with fans and critics alike wondering what went wrong in their whirlwind romance. Despite the turmoil, Renner has remained resolute in his love for his daughter Ava, whom he shares with Pacheco.
Why Did Jeremy Renner And Sonni Pacheco Get Divorced?
In December 2015, Jeremy Renner and Sonni Pacheco an actress and model reached a divorce agreement. Pacheco requested that their prenuptial agreement be nullified because she claimed it was founded on "fraud" and cited irreconcilable differences as the cause of their breakup. She also requested spousal support and full physical custody of their daughter Ava.
When Pacheco filed for divorce, there was a fight right away she requested Renner return her passport, which she claimed was stolen, as well as her birth certificate and social security card in court documents that were submitted.
But the Avengers star in response filed a separate court document in February 2015 asking for shared custody of their daughter whose custody was ultimately split between the two, with Renner providing $13,000 in child support each month.
Pacheco had also accused Renner of threatening to harm her and himself, and of subjecting her to verbal, emotional, and substance abuse. The accusations were made in a 2019 court document as part of their custody dispute.

The Marvel actor revealed that he flew nearly every weekend for 18 months from London to Los Angeles to spend time with Ava. However, he eventually decided to tell studios to work with his schedule, no matter the consequences.
"It taught me how to have the nuts to say, 'Everyone, f--k off. It's my time with my daughter," Renner said, adding that he'd been warned that the studios could fire him. "I said, Fine, recast me. I'm going to be here with my daughter. It was pretty gnarly."
