Christine Baumgartner, 49, has declined to contribute to the legal costs of her estranged husband Kevin Costner, 68, in the ongoing divorce. The actor had previously submitted an application to the court.

She argues that Costner could have avoided the hefty fees if he hadn’t filed a motion in July asking her to move out of his multimillion-dollar estate by August. A court hearing on attorneys’ fees is currently scheduled for August 2.
Baumgartner is currently taking a break from the War of the Roses with her children in Hawaii. A judge recently ordered Costner to pay his estranged wife $129,755 a month in child support for their three children. Baumgartner originally asked for alimony of $248,000 a month.
In May 2023, Baumgartner filed for divorce from her famous husband after 18 years of marriage. The couple have three children together, daughter Grace, 13, and sons Cayden, 16, and Hayes, 14.
