The news that Kevin Costner’s wife Christine Baumgartner had filed for divorce reportedly came as a “unpleasant surprise,” despite the fact that Costner “wasn’t shocked.”
The couple, who have been married for almost 20 years, announced their divorce earlier this month. The actor is 68 years old, and his wife is 49. The pair, who have been married since 2004, has three children. Cayden, 16, Hayes, 14, and Grace, 12, are the children of Kevin and Christine.
After the story broke, many people began to wonder if Kevin had cheated on his wife. A representative for him reportedly refuted this, saying, “Absolutely not true.”
Inside Kevin Costner’s Wife’s Divorce Announcement
Christine Baumgartner, the longtime wife of actor Kevin Costner, shocked everyone when she announced she was seeking for divorce. We can now better understand Baumgartner’s motivations for making this choice.
A source told People that Costner’s hectic work schedule was a major contributing factor. “Christine wants them to spend family time at their Santa Barbara home,” the source said. “During filming, Kevin is not around very much. His absence has been very hard for her.”

They went on to say, “Christine doesn’t want him to throw himself into another project. He has been obsessed with filming Horizon since last year. She wasn’t happy about it.”
According to the same source, Costner “knew” his wife was “unhappy,” yet his choice to file for divorce was nonetheless a “unpleasant surprise.”
Costner’s career has taken off in recent years because to the success of the television show Yellowstone, and his next project, Horizon, is similarly ambitious. You can see the official tweet by YabaLeftOnline below in which actor Kevin Costner’s wife of 18 years is filing for divorce.

According to the same source, “Kevin hasn’t been home very much for quite some time due to filming, the popularity of Yellowstone, and the time necessary for his other projects. He has been in demand.”
The insider stated, “All of this success and excitement over the new project probably took his attention away from his family more than he realized. Since it didn’t look like that would change and likely could get worse, it caused tension at home.”
Costner’s representative issued a statement after the divorce file was made public, saying, “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.”
It was also announced at the same time that Costner will not be returning to his hit series Yellowstone after the conclusion of season five, but the two concerns are not said to be related.
