At one level, Pacheco claimed that Renner threatened to kill her, caught a gun in his personal mouth, and later fired the gun into the ceiling of their dwelling.

“And that’s where sometimes cynicism comes out — you think, ‘I’m just going to have a laugh at this stuff.’”

Requested to elaborate, Renner replied:

“Being accused of things you’ve not done, right? That doesn’t feel good to anybody. It certainly doesn’t feel good when you’re a celebrity and it’s known to everybody.”

The Avengers star then explicitly confirmed that he was referring to Pacheco’s allegations and calling them unfaithful:

“No, and they happen all the time,” he said. “It’s all of the salaciousness that occurs on the market. It’s clickbait, and it hurts my emotions, and it dehumanizes folks.

“It doesn’t matter to me what people say,” Renner continued.

“They’re saying it for their own reasons and not for the right reasons or the truth. And I’m used to that, because I’m a public figure. I don’t read people’s reviews, I don’t read people’s comments. I don’t care. That’s not part of my life.”

Requested if he was ever frightened about dropping custody of his daughter, Renner replied, “That’s just lawyers talking. That’s lawyers arguing. The custody was easy.”

He added that he and Sonni have settled their variations, and she or he even sends him photographs of her youngest little one:

“Her mom and I get along very well, and we’re in each other’s lives. It’s lovely,” Renner stated.

“It’s great. She’s got a new baby and she sends me beautiful pictures.”

It feels like Jeremy and Sonni have reached a secure place of their coparenting relationship.
