Kevin Costner’s wife files for divorce as Yellowstone actor admits ‘circumstances beyond his control’ led to split
YELLOWSTONE star Kevin Costner’s wife, Christine Baumgartner, has chosen to end her relationship with Kevin after 18 years.

Christine, 49, filed on Monday, TMZ reported.
The clothing designer didn’t divulge specifically why she wanted to quit the relationship.
Instead, she just declared the reason being as merely “irreconcilable differences.”
A representative from Kevin’s team told TMZ that the divorce is of great sadness to the 68-year-old.
“It is with great sadness that circumstances beyond his control have transpired which have resulted in Mr. Costner having to participate in a dissolution of marriage action,” the representative explained.
“We ask that his, Christine’s and their children’s privacy be respected as they navigate this difficult time.”
The estranged couple shares three children together: sons Cayden, 15, and Hayes, 14, and daughter Grace, 12.
At this time, Christine is only asking for joint custody of their kids, and not for spousal support.
In a response that Kevin’s lawyer Laura Wasser, 54, filed on his behalf on Tuesday, it was acknowledged that spousal support was “to be payable to petitioner” per their “Premarital Agreement.”
Also, in the response, it was explained that Kevin wanted joint custody of their kids as well.
Christine was Kevin’s second wife.
WHO IS CHRISTINE?
Kevin married Christine Baumgartner in 2004.
She was most famously known for her work with E! Live from the Red Carpet, Primetime, and Die Johannes B. Kerner Show.
Christine is also a former model and current handbag designer who got a degree in Business from California State University.
While the estranged couple have three children together, Kevin himself is the father of seven.
His previous children come from his past relationships with Cindy Silva and Bridget Rooney.
Kevin’s other children include Annie, Lily, Joe, and Liam.
It was revealed in 2012 that he and Christine almost did not get married because he wasn’t interested in having any more children.
“She said, ‘I’m going to wait for you, but not long. When you come to your senses, come back to me,’” Kevin told Parade back in 2012.
“And I did.”
Kevin and Christine chose to raise their children out of the spotlight on their 165-acre Dunbar Ranch; just outside Aspen, Colorado.
THE SHOW GOES ON
While Kevin may no longer have a wife, he still does have a thriving career.
For the past six years and the past five seasons, he has led the Yellowstone cast.
Kevin first signed on to the Western TV drama in May 2017.
Not only does he play one of the main characters, but he is also an executive producer for the show.
The Oscar winner takes on the part of Montana rancher-turned-governor John Dutton III.
His role as the Dutton family’s patriarch netted him his third Golden Globe win.
At the 2023 ceremony, Kevin took home the award for Best Actor – Television Series Drama.
Regarding the program’s development and what drew him to Yellowstone, he told Deadline: “I like to think my tastes are broad but a lot of people think I do anything with a horse in it.
“Western themes are very hard to pull off. There’s a tendency to think white hat, black hat and it’s much more complicated.

James Gunn Rules Out One Very High-Profile Actor For Superman Legacy
DC Studios boss James Gunn has shared new information on who he wants to play Superman in the upcoming Superman Legacy film that he is writing. Speaking to Variety, Gunn said the studio is already looking at “some really great choices,” but he did not share any names except to confirm that it won’t be Chris Pratt.
Superman Legacy will focus on a younger Clark Kent, so Pratt wouldn’t work. “It’s not Chris Pratt. If he was a few years younger, maybe.” Pratt recently revealed that he auditioned for numerous superhero roles over the years and got rejected for all of them until Gunn cast him as Star-Lord in the Guardians of the Galaxy series.
Gunn went on to discuss at a high level what he’s looking for in an actor. “The next Superman has to be someone who has all the humanity that Superman has but he’s also an alien,” Gunn said. “It’s gotta be somebody who has the kindness and the compassion that Superman has and be somebody who you want to give a hug.”

Beau Is Afraid Actor Has No Idea What The Movie Is About, Had Basically No Prep Time
Hereditary and Midsommar director Ari Aster’s new movie, Beau Is Afraid, arrives this month, and one of the film’s cast members doesn’t know a whole lot about it.
Richard Kind (Scrubs, Curb Your Enthusiasm) plays a lawyer, Dr. Cohen, but Kind was hired very late for the project after someone else dropped out. He had a meeting on Friday afternoon, agreed to the role the same day, and began practicing his lines right away. By the following Monday–just three days later–Kind was on set at 7 AM to film his part. Given the compressed timeline, Kind didn’t have a chance to read the script, and thus doesn’t know much about the movie beyond his part in it.
“Because I only had two days to memorize it, I didn’t have the luxury of reading the script,” Kind told Entertainment Weekly. “After I did the movie, I was so intrigued. I said, ‘I’m not reading the script, I’m going to see the movie.'”
Metal Gear Solid voice actor may have teased that much rumoured Snake Eater remake
Donna Burke, voice actor and vocalist behind a couple of Metal Gear Solid vocal tracks, appears to have teased that Snake Eater remake.
Earlier this week Burke shared a photo of herself holding a folder of a cat with an eye patch on it, but more importantly it has the text Snake Eater on it, with the caption “Recording in progress” (thanks, Eurogamer). If you don’t know who Burke is, this might not mean much, but the voice actor and singer was the lead vocalist behind tracks like Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker’s Heavens Divide, and The Phantom Pain’s Sins of theFather. So obviously everyone thinks that she’s recording for the long rumoured Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater remake.
In a later tweet, Burke shared more photos of herself in the recording studio writing, “nothing beats working with good people. Nothing. Thanks for today Mason Lieberman (director) and Yusuke Mori (engineer) and Tomomi Ura (EA).” Fans were quick to zoom in on one particular photo which clearly shows the lyrics for Snake Eater’s main theme (also called Snake Eater, one of the more popular tracks from the series due to its James Bond theme-like qualities). Which certainly makes it seem like she might be recording the track for this remake we’ve heard about on and off for what seems like forever now.
