Kevin Costner is reportedly holding onto resentment and anger toward his ex-wife, Christine Baumgartner, following their tumultuous divorce after 20 years of marriage. According to Radar online, the Yellowstone star has no intention of forgiving Christine or reconciling anytime soon.
“Kevin can’t stand the thought of spending time and breaking bread with Christine after everything she put him through,” a source claimed. The insider added that Costner continues to harbor negative feelings toward his former spouse, explaining, “It is still so bitter between them.”
Since their split, Baumgartner has moved on, reportedly dating Josh O’Connor, a close friend of Costner’s. Meanwhile, Costner has struggled with his own romantic life. Following his divorce, the actor briefly connected with singer Jewel, but their relationship ultimately turned out to be nothing more than a fling that eventually faded.
“Kevin still harbors resentment and anger toward Christine,” the source revealed, adding, “She’s far from his biggest fan, too.” The tension between them is clearly ongoing, with Costner still unable to let go of the bitterness from their marriage and breakup.
As for his former best friend, Josh O’Connor, the source stated, “[O’Connor] is the last person Kevin wants to lay eyes on,” signaling the strained dynamics within Costner’s social circle since the divorce.
With emotions still running high, it seems that Kevin Costner and Christine Baumgartner are far from achieving any kind of reconciliation, leaving their relationship filled with lingering animosity.
