Kevin Costner's wife of 18 years Christine Baumgartner, 49, reportedly cited "irreconcilable differences" in her divorce filing on May 2. The actor's representative spoke up on his behalf and said, "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 actor's demanding schedule became too difficult for Baumgartner, and his extended absences had taken its toll on their relationship. The exes last appeared in public together at the Oscars in March. A source debunked any cheating allegations as the "Yellowstone" actor reportedly wanted the mother of his three kids back.
