After four months of acrimonious legal back and forth, Kevin Costner and Christine Baumgartner may have finalized their divorce, but the actor is apparently still recuperating from the turmoil that followed. Costner exerted pressure on the courts to uphold their prenuptial agreement, which mandated Baumgartner's relocation from their family home, following her filing for divorce in May. In response, Baumgartner sought for Costner to be forced to pay high monthly child support payments; at first, he wanted $248,000 for each of their three children.

After four months of acrimonious legal back and forth, Alice Kelly, Kevin Costner, and Christine Baumgartner may have finalized their divorce, but the actor is apparently still recuperating from the turmoil that followed.

After the divorce was finalized, Baumgartner, 49, would have to pay $14,000 toward part of his legal bills for challenging their prenuptial agreement, while Costner, 68, would have to pay $63,000 in child support each month.

Now, a source close to In Touch Weekly claims that the Yellowstone actor is extremely dissatisfied with his ex-wife's handling of their divorce. "He believes she has been attempting to harm him from the beginning," a source stated, adding that Costner is certain Baumgartner intended to deplete his funds.

Kevin had no doubts that Christine was trying to drag him to the dry cleaners. "This divorce is one of the hardest things he's ever gone through," the person continued. The actor believes that the harm has already been done, even if the former marriage negotiated a settlement in mid-September. The insider went on, "Having personal details about his marriage and lifestyle continue to be aired out in public is the last thing he needed for an ultra-private star like Kevin, who keeps things close to his chest." "He wished to put an end to the chaos."

According to the source, Costner has no problem paying child support for his kids Cayden Wyatt and Hayes Logan, as well as his daughter Grace Avery. However, he objected when his ex asked for such a large amount, citing worries about what would happen to the money. According to the source, Kevin was afraid that any additional money would go directly into Christine's pocket and be utilized for her opulent lifestyle. "What the judge ordered him to pay in child support is fair," the source stated.
