Renner’s latest Instagram post comes just days after she confirmed that she and Gates were married, but got divorced after 52 days. “We got married April 6 and divorced May 28,” she explained during an interview with Real 92.3 LA this month. “But there is a 90-day waiting period in Islam to see if you’re pregnant, because then he would be responsible. And then also in those 90 days, it’s for reconciliation because Allah wants you stay married, and during those 90 days you are not to entertain anybody romantically.”
“What I will say is Islam has made my life a lot easier,” she continued. “I think even with this transition and things changing. I don’t think anybody gets married to not stay married, so my biggest thing for me is a nice 90-day reset just focusing on myself and pouring into myself.”
Renner added that she has no regrets about the brief marriage, as she “followed [her] heart.”
