Estranged Wife of Kevin Costner Accuses Actor of Withholding Financial Details Amid Ongoing Divorce

In the latest development of their ongoing divorce proceedings, American actor Kevin Costner’s estranged wife, Christine Baumgartner, has alleged that Costner has been withholding crucial financial records.

The 49-year-old handbag designer, who filed for divorce from the acclaimed actor on May 1 after an 18-year marriage, claims that Costner has not provided the requested documents, according to legal documents reviewed by People.

Baumgartner’s legal team has been pressing for documentation detailing Costner’s future earnings and anticipated income from projects, including his upcoming film series “Horizon.”

The divorce case has taken a contentious turn as Baumgartner’s team accuses Costner of hindering the proceedings by failing to share the requested information.

The court has already awarded Baumgartner $129,755 per month in child support, and further hearings are scheduled to address child support matters and the premarital agreement.

The dispute revolves around the financial implications of their separation. Baumgartner’s legal team asserts that understanding Costner’s potential income is crucial for determining child support and other financial matters.

The documents Baumgartner seeks are said to provide insight into Costner’s future endeavors and anticipated income, particularly related to his involvement in the upcoming “Horizon” film series.

Costner’s legal representation has pushed back, arguing that some of the requested materials are not relevant due to the prenuptial agreement both parties entered into.

The prenup stipulated specific provisions about spousal support and the classification of income earned during the marriage. This disagreement has led to a legal standoff, with Baumgartner’s team contending that Costner’s reluctance to provide the requested documents is obstructing the proceedings.

As the divorce proceedings continue to unfold, the battle over financial transparency and the withheld documents adds a layer of complexity to an already high-profile split.

The outcome of this dispute could have significant implications for the financial settlement and ongoing support arrangements.
