Actor and producer Kevin Costner was married until less than a year ago. He and his ex-wife, Christine Baumgartner, parted ways after 18 years of marriage, with the designer filing for divorce on May 1, 2023.
The two share three kids: Cayden, Hayes, and Grace. Amid the divorce proceedings, Baumgartner was required to move out of Costner's home in the Santa Barbara, California, area. Still, she refused to do so until the actor met his various financial demands.
As per court documents, Christine Baumgartner had signed a pre-nuptial agreement that gave her 30 days to vacate this home before they got married. The house was a pre-marital asset that Costner purchased in 1988.
Baumgartner's resistance to move out stood even after Costner's multiple requests urging her to do so. The actor even offered to help her financially when relocating to a new residence. The house was only part of the conflicts surrounding the pair's divorce process, which started in May 2023. The two also engaged in a court battle on child support payments.
After a long battle in court, Baumgartner and Costner's divorce was eventually settled in September 2023, and the couple went on with their separate lives as much as they will always be connected as they share three kids.
Costner's Santa Barbara home is also not the only one he owns. The actor recently celebrated his 69th birthday and owns a 160-acre ranch, dubbed "The Dunbar," which is available for rent. It is nestled in tranquil seclusion, just moments from downtown Aspen, in the Elk Mountain Range at the base of Independence Pass.
