Cold detachment towards ex-spouse at graduate celebration event - Spatial Distance Between Ex-Spouse and Abifeier
Here's the lowdown: Kevin Costner (70) and his ex-wife Christine Baumgartner (51) continued to keep their distance, even at their son Cayden's graduation in Santa Barbara. The pair seemed distant, with neither showing signs of reconciliation, as they stayed at opposite ends of the school grounds. Cayden got individual pictures with both proud parents, but without any interaction between them.
According to the scandal-slinging US website "TMZ", both Costner and his ex-wife were present at their 18-year-old son's graduation. The oft-divorced couple's tense body language showed no signs of reconciliation, and despite being present together, they didn't mix.
The financial implications of their rocky relationship aren't great either. As per "TMZ", Costner was obligated to give his ex-wife a one-time payment of $1 million due to their divorce settlement. Moreover, the "Yellowstone" star shells out $63,000 per month in child support for their Three amigos.
In May 2023, Baumgartner, who had been hitched to Costner since 2004, filed for divorce citing "irreconcilable differences." Costner later described their divorce, the split from the mother of three of his children, as a "devastating moment," adding, "It's huge, it hurts."
Costner Unwavering in His Passion for Acting
In a recent chat with "People", Costner declared that retirement hasn't crossed his mind yet. This octogenarian beauty revealed, "I’m not thinking about retiring because I just go to the next project that excites me," The actor continued, stating that his passion, not any higher-up, is what dictates what he does.
Costner also has an enviable list of experiences he still wants to indulge in, even if he doesn't term it as a "bucket list." Costner stated, "I don’t have one of those. I have this list, but I don’t call it that. But certainly, my eyes and my enthusiasm are wide open and very big."
In the realm of movies-and-tv and entertainment, Kevin Costner, despite his tumultuous divorce with Christine Baumgartner, maintains his passion for acting. When asked about retirement, he expressed, "I’m not thinking about retiring because I just go to the next project that excites me," indicating his unwavering dedication to his craft. This statement underscores his commitment to his profession, hinting at his involvement in many more celebrated projects featuring celebrities.
