Celebrity divorces and custody battles are almost always extremely messy.
The custody battle between Avengers star Jeremy Renner and his ex wife Sonni is no different.
According to TMZ, Sonni accused Jeremy of being drunk and on coke when he enthusiastically talked about killing her while at a club. Apparently telling someone he
“could not deal with her anymore, and he just wanted her gone.”
Jeremy allegedly ended the night by putting a gun in his mouth and threatening to kill himself then shot the gun into the ceiling while their daughter was sleeping.
Sonni wants a judge to change their custody agreement from joint to sole custody for the reason above and because Jeremy allegedly left coke on a reachable bathroom counter while their daughter was in the house. Sonni also says that the nanny overheard Jeremy saying he was going to Sonni’s house to kill her then himself because it was better for their daughter to have no patents than having Sonni as a mother.
Jeremy responded with claims of his own. He says Sonni is the one with the drug problem and says she’s just mad their relationship didn’t work out and wants money.
He says he’s submitted to random drug tests for the last three months and they’ve all come back clean and hired a mental health specialist to monitor his visits with his daughter.
The court docs that were laid out a timeline of Sonni’s claims and they lineup with Jeremy’s movie releases suggesting she does it to bring bad press.
Jeremy says Sonni used to brag to friends that she bagged an Avenger and wants a judge to limit her time with their daughter until she gets help with her psychological issues.
What a mess.
