Kevin Costner Agreed to Have Kids in His 50s as He Was Afraid Wife Would Leave – She’s Filed for Divorce 18 Years Later
Kevin Costner, known for his roles in famous movies like “Dances with Wolves,” and his wife Christine Baumgartner have ended their 18-year marriage. Despite initial hesitations, Kevin agreed to expand their family in his 50s. He admitted, “I was afraid I couldn’t be an effective father,” but eventually embraced fatherhood again. Their union resulted in three children.
Kevin has seven children in total, including Annie, Lily, and Joe from his previous marriage. His youngest children, Cayden, Hayes, and Grace, shared interests in music and sports. However, Kevin’s past fear that Christine might leave him eventually came true. They filed for divorce citing “irreconcilable differences.” Christine didn’t seek spousal support, and both requested joint custody of their children.
The news received mixed reactions, with some expressing disappointment and others suggesting it might be beneficial for Christine. Kevin’s representative asked for privacy during this difficult time.
