Jeremy Renner’s ex-wife Sonni Pacheco has shared a new photo of her pregnancy as the 51-year-old actor continues to recover from a snow plow accident in hospital.

The mother of his daughter, Ava Berlin, shared a New Year’s Day snap of her growing baby bump – one in black and white, and another in color.

Pacheco, 34, accused Renner of threatening to kill her back in 2019, allegations that the Marvel star has denied.

The former couple were married for just 10 months and split in December 2014.

She has since moved on with 38-year-old Nathan Thompson, a former National Hockey League player who played for the Philadelphia Flyers, and they shared the exciting baby news in October.

In the new photos of her baby bump shared on Instagram, Pacheco purses her lips and flashes the peace sign into a camera at a low angle.

‘Peace Out 2022. Hello 2023,’ the caption read.

In November, she also shared a nude pregnancy photo of herself with an arm covering her nipples, with the caption: ’22 weeks. Studio City, CA. 11.27.22.’

The couple first shared the news by posting a series of photos, including Pacheco and Thompson posing with his hands on her growing belly and the baby girl’s sonogram on October 3 last year.

The next photos showed an image of a positive pregnancy test, another sonogram and two children by the pool with Thompson in an apparent gender reveal.

Pacheco is now an LA-based sculptor after appearing in a couple of movies: 2012’s The Wingman and 2009’s American Pie Presents: The Book Of Love.

The artist works out of her LA home where she lives with Ava, according to her website, and explores ‘new techniques, materials, and applications.’

‘Her work reflects her hardships and her hope, her past and her present, carrying a message of strength for all who encounter it,’ the website says.

Meanwhile Pacheco's partner Thompson, born in Anchorage, Alaska, currently plays for the Ontario Reign in the American Hockey League.

From 2001 to 2002, he started his major junior hockey career in Seattle as part of the Western Hockey League before being drafted by NHL team Boston Bruins. 

Thompson was a sixth-round pick by the Bruins in 2003.

However he remained with Seattle for two more seasons before signing an entry-level contract with the Bruins in 2005.

'Thompson spent the next three seasons with the Bruins organization before he was claimed off waivers by the New York Islanders on Oct. 8, 2008,' according to Thompson's NHL profile.

'He scored his first NHL goal against the New York Rangers on Nov. 4, 2008 and spent two seasons with the Islanders before being claimed by the Tampa Bay Lightning on Jan. 21, 2010. He signed a four-year contract with Tampa Bay on March 23, 2013.

'The following season, Thompson had 16 points (nine goals, seven assists) in 81 games but was traded to the Anaheim Ducks on June 29, 2014.

'After three seasons in Anaheim, Thompson signed a two-year contract with the Ottawa Senators on July 1, 2017 and was reunited with coach Guy Boucher, who had coached him with the Lightning. He appeared in 43 games before being traded to the Los Angeles Kings.'

After his stint with LA, Thompson played for the Montreal Canadiens for two seasons and was then traded to the Philadelphia Flyers in 2020.

It's unclear when Pacheco and Thompson started seeing each other, but she appears in a Christmas photo he posted to Instagram in December 2021.

He also shared another post of them together, celebrating Valentine's Day last year, and they were also together for Halloween. 

Renner and Pacheco's divorce was finalized in 2014, and it was agreed the next year the actor would pay $13,000 a month in child support for their then two-year-old daughter, Ava, according to TMZ.

But the legal battles in relation to their child have continued through the years.

Years later, in 2019, Pacheco accused the Hawkeye star of threatening to kill her and then himself.

She alleged Renner was at a club while high on coke and drunk when he told someone he ‘could not deal with her (Pacheco) anymore, and he just wanted her gone.’

The legal documents obtained by TMZ also claimed Renner put a gun in his mouth and threatened to kill himself before firing it into the ceiling as his daughter slept in her bedroom.

Renner denied these allegations in more court filings and through his representative who told TMZ in 2019: ‘The well-being of his daughter Ava has always been and continues to be the primary focus for Jeremy. This is a matter for the court to decide.

‘It's important to note the dramatizations made in Sonni's declaration are a one-sided account made with a specific goal in mind.’

When asked about Pacheco’s claims during a 2021 interview with Men’s Health, Renner said: ‘I don’t respond publicly or privately to nonsense.

‘It only empowers it. . . . If you respond to it, you give it gas. I don’t fuel s*** fires. I just don’t do it. I refuse to.’
