AFTER spending four contentious months locked in a legal battle over their impending divorce, Kevin Costner and ex Christine Baumgartner suddenly reached a settlement in mid-September. “Kevin and Christine Costner have come to an amicable and mutually agreed upon resolution of all issues pertaining to their divorce proceedings,” a representative for the Oscar winner said in a joint statement released Sept. 19.
Those close to Kevin are hoping it’s the end of a long nightmare that began when Christine blindsided the Yellowstone star by filing for divorce on May 1 after 18 years of marriage. “This is a horrible place to be,” Kevin said following a court appearance in late August. “It feels so bad.” (The former couple share kids Cayden, 16, Hayes, 14, and Grace, 13; he has four other kids from previous relationships.) Sources tell Star the actor, 68, has been to hell and back with Christine, 49, during their legal tangling over the demise of their marriage. “He’s convinced she’s been trying to make him look bad all along,” says one source, noting that Kevin also believed she was out to bleed him dry financially. “Without a doubt, Kevin felt Christine was attempting to take him to the cleaners. This divorce,” adds the source, “is one of the hardest things he’s ever been through.”
