Costner’s wife won’t leave home until financial demands are met.

Kevin Costner’s Estranged Wife Refuses to Leave Shared Property

Christine Baumgartner, the estranged wife of “Yellowstone” actor Kevin Costner, filed for divorce after 18 years of marriage on May 1. However, court documents now reveal that she’s refusing to leave their shared property for financial reasons.

Radar Online accessed legal documents detailing the situation between the estranged couple. Costner and Baumgartner signed a prenuptial agreement when they wed in 2004, which Costner says included the stipulation that she vacate their shared property within 30 days of any divorce filing.

Now that time period has passed, and Costner is taking legal action for a breach of contract. Costner and his lawyer Laura Wasser are now asking the court to issue an order prohibiting Christine from continuing to occupy the residence.

The document reportedly says Baumgartner refuses to move out despite “multiple requests that she do so and despite Kevin’s offers to assist her financially in relocating to a new residence.”

The “Yellowstone” star alleged that his estranged wife had “taken the position that she will not move out of Kevin’s separate property residence unless and until Kevin agrees to various financial demands.”

Costner also said he already gave Baumgartner a $1 million payment per the prenup agreement plus an additional $200,000 during earlier years of their marriage.

Child Custody and Support

The couple shares custody of their three children: Cayden, 15; Hayes, 14; and Grace, 12. The document Radar Online accessed said Costner had also arranged a “comprehensive temporary child support and fee proposal, he has agreed to and has maintained the financial status quo since the Petition was filed, continuing to pay all of the parties’ children’s expenses, and he is negotiating a summer visitation schedule for the parties’ three teenage children.”

No Spousal Support

TMZ initially reported that Baumgartner, a handbag designer, was not seeking spousal support.

“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 representative for Costner told the outlet just after news of the divorce filing broke.

“We ask that his, Christine’s, and their children’s privacy be respected as they navigate this difficult time.”
