Kevin Costner and Christine Baumgartner have officially finalized their divorce. The couple reached a settlement after months of legal disputes.
The couple had already settled their divorce in September and agreed to joint custody of their three children. The recent court filing requested an exemption from completing a mandated co-parenting course.
A representative for Kevin Costner confirmed in September that he and Christine Baumgartner had reached an “amicable and mutually agreed upon resolution” regarding their divorce.
Christine Baumgartner filed for divorce on May 1, 2023, after 18 years of marriage, citing April 11 as the date of separation. They have three children together: sons Cayden (16) and Hayes (15), and daughter Grace (13).
“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,” a rep for Kevin said at the time Christine filed for divorce.
“We ask that his, Christine’s, and their children’s privacy be respected as they navigate this difficult time.”
Before settling their divorce in September, Kevin Costner and Christine Baumgartner appeared in court multiple times to address various issues.
These included finalizing the timeline for Christine’s move out of their Santa Barbara family compound and determining child support payments.
Kevin Costner and Christine Baumgartner first met briefly at a golf course while he was rehearsing for the 1996 film Tin Cup.
They reconnected at a restaurant in 1998, began dating, and married in 2004 at Costner’s 160-acre ranch, The Dunbar, in Aspen, Colorado.
The wedding was notable for Costner arriving in a horse-drawn carriage and Baumgartner arriving in a green vintage truck.
