Renee and Charlie were not married for very long. Their daughter, Bella, was born in September of 1988 and they were divorced by March of 1989. She moved to Riverside, California until Bella was five years old, at which time she moved to Phoenix, Arizona where she still lives today. Around 2004, she met and fell in love with a minor league baseball player named Phil Dwyer whom she later married.
