Kevin Costner and his wife Christine Baumgartner are getting divorced

Kevin Costner and his wife of over 18 years, Christine Baumgartner have announced that they are going their separate ways.

In a statement shared with the CNN on Tuesday (2), Costner’s representative, Arnold Robinson , said that “circumstances beyond its control occurred and resulted in Mr. Costner in a suit for dissolution of marriage.”

Robinson continued with a request that the privacy of Costner, Baumgartner, “and their children be respected as they navigate this difficult time.”

the star of “Dance with wolves” married Baumgartner, a handbag designer and former model, in Colorado in 2004.

The two initially met on a golf course and, years later, met again at a restaurant opening.

The now-ex-couple share three children, and Costner also has four other children from previous relationships, including with his first wife. Cindy Silva to whom he was married from 1978 to 1994.

In February, a month after Costner won a Golden Globe for his performance in “Yellowstone” he referenced his wife on social media, who helped celebrate his achievement when they were unable to attend the awards event due to flooding near their home.

“We watched it from home and it just wasn’t the same,” Costner said in a video as he recounted what it was like to watch the show remotely.

Costner added that Baumgartner “realized my heart was a little low,” so she brought “about 30” balloons home for him “because it would just be us and our family in the room watching the Golden Globes, something we envisioned ourselves.” being there [para]something I dreamed of.
