It feels like just yesterday that Kevin Costner and Christine Baumgartner had a seemingly strong marriage. However, following a bitter divorce battle and public drama, both have moved on. Last month, we reported on the possibility of Costner finding love again. And now, it seems Christine Baumgartner is also not one to be left behind when it comes to new romances.
Last year, Baumgartner blindsided Costner by filing for divorce in May, citing irreconcilable differences. The couple had been married for 18 years. In the midst of the divorce proceedings, there was a bitter feud between the two, with Baumgartner being forced out of the family home as per a prenuptial agreement. Costner was also ordered to pay a substantial amount in child support for their three shared children.
Despite the challenges of their divorce, both Kevin and Christine are eager to put behind the year 2023. And while their marriage may have ended, love was not entirely lost. According to TMZ, Costner embarked on a romance with US singer Jewel late last year. They were seen together, allegedly sharing a romantic trip to the Caribbean.
Similarly, rumors now surround Christine Baumgartner and her love life. The Daily Mail strongly suggests that she may have a new flame in her life – well-known financier Josh Connor. The pair have been spotted together, including one occasion where Baumgartner appeared to drop Connor off at his home in Santa Barbara.
Interestingly, this is not the first time Baumgartner and Connor have been linked. They were previously spotted during a vacation to Hawaii. When questioned during Baumgartner’s divorce proceedings, she denied that Connor was her boyfriend. However, subsequent trips and financial support suggest otherwise.
Josh Connor, a divorced father of three, has reportedly lent Baumgartner $20,000 during the distressing time of her divorce from Costner.
