Actor Kevin Costner recently wrapped up a nasty divorce proceeding with his former wife Christine Baumgartner. Baumgartner filed for divorce from the ‘Yellowstone‘ actor in May of 2023. The couple has three children.
After being married for 18 years, Costner and Baumgartner settled their divorce in September of 2023. During that divorce, the pair had a very public and vicious battle over spousal support.
Baumgartner Wanted $248k A Month From Costner
Christine Baumgartner requested that Costner pay an astounding $248,000 per month in child support payments after filing for divorce last May. A majority of the money was said to be for ‘maintaining the lifestyle of the couple’s three children, Cayden, 16, Hayes, 14, and Grace, 13.
That figure, largely reduced in the settlement, reportedly ended up finishing at $129,755 per month. A King’s ransom!
