She has short brown hair, innocent, childish blue eyes and a round face full of laugh lines. Bella says that she is more like the mother and Renee is like the child.In the film, she is portrayed by Sarah Clarke.
Renée has very negative views of early marriage, the result of her marrying Charlie right out of high school. This is something Bella feared when she became engaged to Edward. But Renée revealed that those views of marriage only apply to her. Bella describes Renée as being her loving, erratic, hare-brained mother. Edward says that her thoughts are childish, but sees the world very clearly. At one point in the Twilight (film) Renée describes herself as someone who "repels technology."
Renée and Charlie married young and had Bella in September of 1987. They divorced in March of 1988. Renée moved to Riverside, California, where she and Bella lived until Bella was five years old. Bella and Renée then moved to Phoenix, AZ where they remained until Bella was 17. Renée fell in love with minor league baseball player Phil Dwyer. Because Bella was attending school in Phoenix, Renée couldn't spend very much time with Phil. Bella decided to live with her father, Charlie Swan, in Forks, Washington so Renée and Phil could have more time together.
During this course of the Twilight series, Bella falls in love with a vampire named Edward Cullen. Bella and Edward eventually marry and Renée, despite her wish that they wait a few more years, accepts it completely.
Renée has a granddaughter named Renesmee Cullen. It is unknown if she knows about her grandchild, since Charlie and Bella both agree that Renée should not be told of the child's existence. Renée also does not know about the existence of vampires.
