Notably, two weeks ago, reports were published in which Kevin accused his estranged wife of using his credit card without permission and making payments to the tune of $95,000 to fund expenses for the divorce.

Meanwhile, Christine previously said that the $248,000 a month she is requesting is “less than the amount needed to maintain the children in their accustomed lifestyle.”

Christine has claimed that she doesn’t have any income of her own as she has been a housewife since the birth of Cayden Wyatt, their 16-year-old son.

Christine has listed April 11 as the date of separation from Kevin and filed for divorce over irreconcilable differences. The pair got married in September 2004. Their marriage lasted for over 18 years and they had three children together. They have two sons named Cayden and Hayes and a daughter Grace.

On the matter of child support, Kevin has said that he believes $51,940 a month, which is the amount he’s currently paying, is “reasonable”. Reportedly, Kevin is also paying 100% of their children’s health insurance, their extracurricular activities, their daughter’s private school tuition and Cayden’s car expenses.

Amid the ongoing bitter divorce process, “Yellowstone” star Kevin Costner has claimed that his estranged wife Christine Baumgartner wants $250,000 monthly in child support payments for her personal benefits instead of their kids. As per a report by Page Six, Kevin’s forensic accountant has alleged in court that Christine spends more than $100,000 in cosmetic surgery procedures and it’s the reason why she is asking for so much money in the guise of child support.
