Obviously, you have followed this more closely than I have.
As I understand it, Renner and the ex-wife became a couple more than 4 years ago, when he was filming Mission Impossible.
As I understand it, they broke up when she was pregnant, then reconciled, she signed a zero dollar pre-nup, and they got married.
Since he's 20 years older than she is, and since he's worked in the movie business for 20 years, I'm a little skeptical that he's the “victim” in this relationship gone bad.
But if you say so, well, OK.
Actually, mine and the author’s interest had nothing to do with the tactless behavior of the parents concerning their marriage. No doubt Renner should not have impregnated this woman, and she should not have agreed to marry anyone who demanded a prenup. The issue for me here has to do with this father’s relationship with the daughter, and his willingness to speak on the subject. I suspect, or hope anyway, that plenty of divorced guys (I am not, btw) will read this article and reevaluate their own performance as fathers. That is all.
