The scandalous divorce from Kevin Costner added a new chapter in the last few hours that shows that the actor is not willing to give up on the financial settlement that is being settled before the courts. Now, the director also accused his ex-wife, Christine Baumgartner, of behaving in a deceptive manner regarding her income, assuring that she is not struggling financially as she alleges, “in an attempt to get more money for the child support fee.” guys”.
According to the documents obtained by the TMZ portal, the actor was summoned this Thursday together with the businesswoman to agree on the details of the maintenance and he was not receptive but combative. In addition to asserting that Baumgartner is not being clear about her finances, he accused her of receiving $20,000 from her new boyfriend. Although the identity of the man does not appear in the documents, Costner believes that his ex-wife is dating a former close friend of his, Josh Connor, with whom the handbag designer was recently seen vacationing. Meanwhile, she denies the relationship.
Likewise, Kevin Costner argued that, since Christine Baumgartner “found financial benefits in her new romance”, it is not necessary to increase the value of the alimony, which he considers will be used by his ex-wife “for cosmetic surgeries and expenses with the card that cannot be traced”.
On the other hand, she stated that the businesswoman “has no interest in looking for work or generating other income”, despite the fact that she has a collection of portfolios in which she would continue to be head of the company.
Baumgartner, meanwhile, assured that the fee must increase in value so that his children, Cayden, Hayes and Grace, “can enjoy the same lifestyle they have when they are with their father.” Her lawyers reported that the money will be used “for the maintenance of the children”, although this implies that Christine also obtains the same economic stability by living with them.
