She put the gun to the Western legend’s chest and her finger on the trigger…
Hollywood-Held Kevin Costner (68) is considered the modern epitome of the American hero. A “Marlboro cowboy” without a cigarette. Blue eyes, 1.87 tall. He still rides and shoots in front of the camera at almost 70, works 15 hours a day, 250 days a year. Costner gets $1.5 million for an episode of his hit series „Yellowstone“ aktuell.
He can’t buy happiness with it. His second wife Christine (49, three children together) has now filed for divorce after almost 19 years.
As the family boss of the “Yellowstone” ranch in the series of the same name, he has been a crowd favorite for five seasons: Kevin Costner plays the rancher John Dutton
THAT is what is rumored in Hollywood about Kevin Costner’s love-off
Was he too WILD and not enough with her in the WEST, the family home in California? Is that why Kevin will soon be home alone again?
Stated reason for divorce: “Irreparable differences”. In Hollywood it’s rumored that SHE could have a new one because HE was in the saddle too often for his filming.
There he is now: Kevin Costner is said to have neglected his family life because he got too involved in his film and series projects (here “Yellowstone”)
Costner seems to have hit his estranged wife’s split announcement like a sudden tornado on a flat prairie. His spokesman shares: “It is with great sadness that circumstances have arisen that are beyond his control.”
Is a bitter divorce war looming?
There was said to have been trouble again and again because Costner was in action in Montana for “Yellowstone”. He is said to have promised improvement and was even said to have been willing to leave the series. But now he is planning, among other things, an eight-hour epic about the American Civil War (1861 to 1865).
Too much for Christine?
The man who prefers to have EVERYTHING under control, who is considered Hollywood’s stand-up man – suddenly abandoned. Costner once said to BILD: “Failure is an often underestimated experience.”

His first divorce (1994) cost him $80 million. Costner always came back, earning around 50 million in 2011 with an oil filter invention.
Kevin the dreamer…
After shooting ended, there was country music and beer with cowboys instead of time for two
On his film sets, an employee reported to BILD, “Kevin is a haven of peace. He consistently pursues his ideas. He films and lives his dreams, often still sitting with cowboys after shooting is over. There’s country music and beer.”
BUT: Costner is also a perfectionist and then forgets everything around him. At first he was the only one who believed in his mammoth success “Dances With Wolves” (7 Oscars in 1991), invested his entire savings in the masterpiece and won EVERYTHING (including 7 Oscars).
Can he turn his luck back again? After almost 19 years of marriage, Kevin Costner’s wife Christine (here the couple in 2003) has filed for divorce. Maybe it was one last (warning) shot he needed
Now the private loss threatens to file for divorce. Can the star dodge this warning shot?
A war of roses over the 60 million ranch near Aspen (Colorado, 70 hectares), the property in Santa Barbara and an estimated private fortune of around a quarter of a billion euros could become an episode in his life. A role that the mega-star certainly never wanted to play …
Costner’s Audience Hits
Kevin Costner’s TV family on the Paramount+ hit ‘Yellowstone’: Was work on set and his TV family more important to him than his own?
He put everything on one card, put his savings into the production, which almost nobody believed in and which became a mega success: “Dances With Wolves” won seven Oscars in 1991 and is considered one of the best westerns of all time
First watchdog, then great love: Costner in the audience hit “Bodyguard” alongside Whitney Houston († 48)
Almost his downfall: The apocalyptic drama “Waterworld” (about 200 million dollars) earned a lot of ridicule, but still brought in the high costs
