‘I Became The Kid’: Jeremy Renner Shares How His Daughter Got More Independent After Taking Care Of Him Post Snowplow Accident

As a dedicated fan, I have always admired Jeremy Renner for his resilience and dedication to his craft. But after reading about his harrowing experience with the snowplow accident and the profound impact it has had on his life and relationship with his daughter Ava, my respect for him has reached unprecedented heights.


1. Jeremy Renner narrowly escaped death when he was hit by a massive snowplow weighing approximately 14,300 pounds, causing him critical injuries including multiple fractured bones and lacerations. However, during this challenging period, the actor had no cause for concern since his 11-year-old daughter Ava stayed with him constantly. In an interview with Parents magazine, Renner discussed the unexpected shift in roles between himself and Ava while he was on the road to recovery.

“For the initial six months, I found myself in the care-giving role, with my daughter taking charge. It was truly touching to witness this role reversal,” he shared, expressing his feelings. He elaborated on how this experience served as a valuable lesson for resilience in his recovery process and contributed significantly to his daughter’s maturity. “She had to develop and mature in many aspects,” he concluded.

During a 2023 family trip, an unfortunate accident happened involving an Avengers actor. He was assisting a relative in freeing a car trapped in snow when he was accidentally run over by a large snowplow. Subsequently, the actor sustained 38 broken bones, a collapsed lung, and severe chest injuries as a result of this incident.

In the interview, the actor disclosed that his affection for Ava, whom he co-parents with ex Sonni Pacheco, has grown even stronger since his recovery. While he will always offer guidance as a father, he plans to educate her on how to love, stay strong, and conquer challenges. As a result of their shared experience, their discussions have evolved into more mature conversations.

“He expressed that his affection runs deeper, while his discussions with his daughter have grown more mature. He’s finding it challenging to tap into the playful, silly dad persona he had when she was younger, like at age 4 or 8. After enduring significant physical hardships and transformations, Renner finds it tough to summon the ‘jungle gym’ enthusiasm. However, his daughter is now old enough to comprehend that he doesn’t have to put on that act anymore.”

As she’s grown up, there’s been a significant increase in our communication. I strive to help her understand the importance of accountability and responsibility. Consequently, I encourage her to engage in more mature activities, he mentioned. Renner explained that throughout her life, he had always spoiled her, but now he’s guiding her on new cooking recipes, teaching her about empathy towards others, and showing her self-care skills.
