Kevin Costner Upset Over Ex-Wife's Engagement

Kevin Costner is reportedly struggling with the news that his ex-wife, Christine Baumgartner, is planning to marry her new boyfriend, Josh Connor, who is also a former friend of his. Sources indicate that Costner feels betrayed, as he believed he was over Baumgartner after their tumultuous divorce, which was finalized in early 2024. The situation has been exacerbated by Costner's recent professional setbacks, particularly the failure of his film 'Horizon: An American Saga' and the end of his rumored romance with singer Jewel. Baumgartner and Connor have been openly dating since shortly after her split from Costner, raising concerns about the emotional toll on the actor who is seeking closure. Additionally, financial implications loom as Baumgartner's upcoming marriage could end Costner's substantial alimony payments to her. Amid these challenges, Costner has expressed the need to move forward while coping with his feelings of betrayal and loss.
