Kevin Costner's Betrayal: Friends Allegedly Plot Against Ex-Wife's New Love Amid 'Yellowstone' Filming Fallout

Kevin Costner and Christine Baumgartner’s teenage children appear to be the only link remaining between the former couple two years following their separation. They share three kids: Cayden, 18, Hayes, 16, and Grace, 15. After an 18-year marriage, they concluded their divorce in February 2024. Baumgartner, 51, soon found romance with family friend and ex-neighbor, Josh Conor. She initiated divorce proceedings in April 2023, citing irreconcilable differences. Rumors of her relationship with Conor emerged during her divorce from the 70-year-old actor. Baumgartner’s engagement to Conor was announced in January 2025, and plans for a lavish yet intimate wedding in Hawaii are underway. However, reports suggest that Costner’s friends are upset, believing loyalty to him prevails. Costner agreed to pay $63,000 monthly in child support, significantly less than her original request of $175,000. Despite the settlement, insiders assert that she wasn’t as victorious as anticipated.
