Jeremy Renner is a mama's boy and that was established when he couldn't stop talking about how she had to give up a lot to raise them. In HGTV's latest episode of 'Celebrity IOU', the actor joined forces with Drew and Jonathan Scott to gift his mother, Valerie Cearley, a new space that will help her entertain friends and family, host sleepovers and bake-offs with her grandkids. 

It took five weeks of hard work to shed the rusty, old 70s vibe off of the condo and replace it with a modern hub that boasts of an open kitchen complete with two-tone cabinets and a custom-made chimney to suit the color scheme of the house and living area that is a complete show-stopper. At the start of the episode, Jeremy said he was hoping to change Valerie's "resting murderous" face into one that would light up with joy and it did. She was visibly surprised and shocked at the same time to see what had become of the house she had left it as. "I am feeling so incredibly grateful to all the work Jeremy, Drew, and Jonathan did," she said.

And one could tell Valerie was excited and ready to move into the new space because she was already planning what she'd do in the kitchen. She has a whole lot of baking events planned and also hopes to see her grandchildren often now that she is closer to where Jeremy lives. Valerie was a "baby" herself when she had and raised Jeremy and so she said: "I made all my mistakes with him, but look how he turned out."

She even shared an embarrassing childhood story of Jeremy's that left him blushing. Valerie revealed the 'Avengers: Endgame' star was two or three-years-old when he would take off his clothes and diapers and wear only her heels all naked and walk to the neighbor's house. The mother-son duo had moist eyes by the time they were done touring the new house. For them, the day was made. Everyone was happy. The 'Property Brothers' added the perfect finishing touch by inviting over Jeremy's family. It was a home already. Catch all the new episodes of 'Celebrity IOU' on HGTV every Monday.
