English has largely discarded diacritic marks in spelling, and the modern style will either prefer or allow spellings such as nee, fiance, fiancee, cooperation, facade, bete noire, and resume (meaning CV), all of which formerly required a diacritic mark. I still see the acute accents occasionally in résumé, a spelling that I take to be an effort to avoid confusion with the English word "resume"; and about half the time, I see the circumflex in bête noire, because it is so clearly a complete borrowing from French.
