They married when Bella was seventeen.
Shortly after they were married, Phil went on the road with his minor-league baseball team. It was difficult for Renée to stay behind, for multiple reasons. She missed Phil a lot, and he was off having the kinds of adventures she still craved. Renée never considered leaving Bella, however. But when Bella suddenly announced her intention to live with Charlie for her last year and a half of high school, Renée did not fight her decision as much as she would have before Phil.
