Kevin Costner and his wife, who are separated, are communicating only with the help of lawyers. Christine Baumgartner, who is 49 years old, asked for a divorce from Kevin Costner, the actor from “Yellowstone” in May. They were married for 18 years. Kevin, who is 68 years old, is tired of the problem between them, so he is letting his lawyer handle everything.
Someone told Us Weekly that Kevin and Christine Baumgartner are now only talking through middle people. Kevin prefers not to talk to Christine Baumgartner himself and is using silence instead of dealing with her directly. Some other sources said that Kevin and his lawyer are trying to make things calmer and prevent more negative attention. He does not want the divorce process to take a long time.

People were surprised to hear that Kevin did not see it coming when Christine, his wife, the mother of his kids Cayden and Hayes, and Grace asked for a divorce. However, it is thought that Christine was unhappy because Kevin was spending a lot of time away from home while he was working on the show “Yellowstone” in Montana.
The insider said that Kevin feels hurt by Christine’s actions, but he wants to handle things maturely. Their marriage seemed strong and like it would last a long time, but being apart so much affected it. Christine just could not handle it. Also, the insiders said that Kevin is ready to leave behind all the problems and move forward.
Christine Baumgartner’s wants support funds from Kevin Costner
Christine Baumgartner, who is no longer with Kevin, is said to be requesting an additional $46,000 every month. She believes that Kevin has enough money to provide the support she is asking for, as well as cover the costs for both their lawyers.
Christine, who is 49 years old, currently receives $129,000 every month. But now, she is asking for $175,057 per month in child support. Kevin and Christine have been fighting intensely since Christine filed for divorce in May 2023.
New legal papers claim that after looking at financial details, it has been found that Kevin’s average available money for support during 2021 and 2022 was $19,248,467 each year (which is $1,604,039 each month). Based on this and the fact that they share parenting time equally, the recommended child support amount, according to California law, is $175,057 every month.
Kevin and Christine got married in 2004 and became parents to three kids, Cayden, Hayes, and Grace. The divorce process that is currently happening has also involved Kevin, who is 68 years old, saying that he did not have any affairs outside the marriage. Christine’s lawyers had earlier asked for any documents that show any money spent on relationships outside the marriage, either by Kevin or someone he asked to do so.
Christine, who is a handbag designer, asked for a divorce at the beginning of May after being married for 18 years. However, they have been having frequent disagreements about the condition of the prenuptial agreement they made in 2004, as well as the money needed to support their children.
