Kevin Costner was facing his ex-wife, who did not want to leave the house they shared as indicated in the prenuptial contract.
Kevin Costner was experiencing drama since he announced his separation from the designer Christine Baumgartner, the mother of his three children and with whom he had been in a relationship for more than twenty years.
What happened was that the woman refused to leave the home they shared as she should have after having signed a prenuptial agreement that indicated so. The renowned Hollywood actor had paid her a large sum of money and had offered to help her find a place to live, but she refused to leave.
This led Kevin Costner to go to court, where he presented all the documentation supporting that Christine Baumgartner had to leave the roof they had shared for so many years and that he built with the fruit of years of work in Hollywood.
“Kevin was married once before, and when they separated, he found himself homeless and unable to live in his own house. He did not want that to happen again, ”his lawyer would have explained the reason that led him to impose that condition.
In his defense, Kevin Costner explained in court that his ex-wife's decision to stay in their Malibu home had not led him to have to settle in his property in Aspen and delay all his work commitments, losing a large Amount of money.
Finally, on July 5, the ex-marriage faced a judge who determined that Christine Baumgartner had to leave the property no later than the 31st of the same month. However, this is not the only issue they are facing.
It seems that Kevin Costner and his ex-wife will have to face each other again in court to deal with child support. The movie star promised to pay alimony of 38,000 dollars a month, which would decrease as they grow older, but the designer did not agree and demanded 248,000 dollars a month.
The actor's defense tried to exaggerate the figure that the woman was asking for and also alleged that in the divorce she was already given half a million dollars to be able to cover any type of extra expense. In addition, he also has a million and a half dollars to buy a new property.
