More details are coming to light as to why Kevin Costner and Christine Baumgartner’s marriage ended. Ultimately, Baumgartner filed the divorce paperwork and it seems as though Costner’s jam-packed schedule played a role. A source close to the situation tells People that Baumgartner felt alone. “Christine wants them to spend family time at their Santa Barbara home. During filming, Kevin is not around very much. His absence has been very hard for her,” the insider revealed. The source added that Costner had been “obsessed” while filming the movie “Horizon” and Baumgartner didn’t want him to take on another big project that would take time away from the family. In addition, the same source adds that the “Yellowstone” star knew his wife was “unhappy” but her decision to file the paperwork still came as shock.
Another insider also spoke with the outlet and claimed that due to the hit series “Yellowstone,” Costner has been a hot commodity for other projects. “All of this success and excitement over the new project probably took his attention away from his family more than he realized,” the insider snitched. “Since it didn’t look like that would change and likely could get worse, it caused tension at home.”

Ironically, the split comes amid news that Costner’s hit show, “Yellowstone” will be ending after the second half of season five, per Fox News. However, the network has time for a spin-off series after.
