2023 was a tough year for beloved actor Kevin Costner. After 18 years, he and his wife Christine Baumgartner divorced.
It has been reported that it was Baumgartner who filed for a divorce, which left the Yellowstone star rather shocked by his now ex-wife’s sudden decision.
People close to the couple, however, claim that Baumgartner hated the fact that Costner was working long hours and was away from home for longer periods of time. “During filming, Kevin is not around very much. His absence has been very hard for her,” a source reportedly said.
“Christine doesn’t want him to throw himself into another project. He has been obsessed with filming Horizon since last year. She wasn’t happy about it,” a source reported.
“At times, his career has taken precedence over his home life,” another source added.
“All of this success and excitement over the new project probably took his attention away from his family more than he realized. Since it didn’t look like that would change and likely could get worse, it caused tension at home,” the source added.
After the initial shock and the ugly child support battle, Costner was seen with another woman, singer Jewel.
The two were recently seen together at a tennis event on Richard Branson’s Necker Island for the Inspiring Children Foundation.
As per TMZ, the two took a plane to the Caribbean and spent nearly a week together.
An insider told the magazine, “There was definitely something going on,” confirming that the pair indeed vacationed in the Caribbean together.
Well, no matter how hard he tries to stay away from the spotlight, that’s not an easy thing to do, especially if you are as famous as Costner is.
During the weekend, after presenting an award at the Golden Globes, Costner became a discussion topic. He, alongside America Ferrera, presented the award for Best Female Actor in a Television Series: Musical or Comedy (The Bear’s Ayo Edebiri won).
At one moment, Costner quoted Ferrera’s monologue from the hit movie Barbie, and that triggered loud applause.
“You know, you have a scene that I really love,” Costner stated on stage. “I think a lot of people enjoy that scene. ‘It’s simply difficult to be a woman.’ You’re aware that ‘You’re so attractive.’ You’re so brilliant, and it hurts me that you don’t believe you’re good enough. “That was pretty good.”
Ferrera’s reply was: “Did you, Kevin Costner, memorize my monologue about womanhood from Barbie?”
He confessed that he didn’t really memorize the entire thing but went on to say, “But it’s an important message, and it always serves to remind me what’s possible in cinema. It simply reminds me that when we take our time, get it right, and cinema is at its best, it can be about moments you’ll never forget.”
The duo’s back-and-forth was praised and appreciated by the audience.
“I was laughing so hard with Kevin Costner trying to be serious…and aging well!” “Yay America!” one individual wrote.
“He worked as much on that segment as he did on his english accent in Robin Hood,” another person said.
“Lmao he’s trying so hard to stay serious ,” a third said.

Fiesty Toddler Doesn’t Like Her Father Talking Back – Her Response Is Hilarious
We meet four-year-old Emma in a charming suburban neighborhood. Emma is a lively and intelligent youngster who loves her father, David. Emma, on the other hand, has a strong sense of self and enjoys speaking her mind, particularly when things don’t go her way.
In a lighthearted game of hide-and-seek one bright afternoon, Emma is being teased by David. Emma takes offense at his jest about her hiding place and resolves to flip the joke back on him. She gives her dad a playful smile and invites him to play a new game called “talking back.”
Every time David makes fun of her or answers in a humorous way in this new game, Emma swiftly responds with her own take on “talking back.” David finds it cutesy and funny at first, but when Emma starts to respond with more sass and intelligence, he starts to think he might have found his match.
Emma’s “talking back” intensifies over the day into a string of surprising and humorous comebacks that make David fight to keep his cool. Emma enjoys outwitting her father, whether it be by making up her own hilarious sentences or by mimicking his tone.
David develops a greater appreciation for Emma’s fierce personality as the game progresses, as well as a better knowledge of her developing independence and inventiveness. David welcomes the happiness of this special bonding experience even though it can be difficult to keep up with his quick-witted kid.
Emma’s boisterous activities have reinforced the bond between father and daughter, who are both weary from laughing by the end of the day. Knowing that there’s never a dull moment when Emma is around, David is amazed by his feisty toddler’s amazing personality as they get ready for bed.
