Hollywood actor Jeremy Renner has openly spoken about the severe allegations made by his ex-wife Sonni Pacheco during their divorce and custody battle in 2019, calling it “painful and dehumanising”. In an interview with a leading publication, the Hawkeye actor robustly dismissed Sonni’s allegations, including the claims that he threatened to kill her and him.
Jeremy was briefly married to Canadian model Sonni, their marriage lasting only ten months until she filed for divorce in December 2014. Their protracted custody fight over their now 12-year-old daughter, Ava, involved Sonni accusing Jeremy of placing a gun in his mouth and firing into the ceiling with Ava around. She also accused him of leaving drugs within reach of their child. Jeremy denied these charges repeatedly.
The actor denounced media reports of the experience as “exploitative and damaging”. He said, “It’s all the salaciousness that happens out there. It’s clickbait, and it hurts my feelings and it dehumanises people.”
Notwithstanding Sonni’s initial quest for sole custody, the exes now have joint custody. Jeremy minimised the custody fight itself, referring to it as “just lawyers talking.” He disclosed that their co-parenting relationship has been quite better, saying, “Her mum and I get along very well and we’re in each other’s lives. It’s lovely.” He now prefers to keep their dynamic under wraps, claiming, “It's no one's business.”
On the work front, Jeremy last appeared in Mayor of Kingstown and will appear in Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, scheduled to release on Netflix on December 12, 2025.
