Rumors of Kevin Costner impregnating 'Yellowstone' PA DEBUNKED amid public divorce
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Kevin Costner has become the subject of wild rumors since his wife Christine Baumgartner filed for divorce on Monday, May 1. One such rumor was that the actor fooled around with a woman working on the set of 'Yellowstone' and left her pregnant. This development is supposedly what led to the breakdown of his marriage.
Costner, 68, and Baumgartner, 49, share three children—Cayden, 15, Logan, 14, and Grace, 12. The actor had to cough up a whopping $80 million as a settlement during the divorce from his first wife, Cindy Silva. However, given that the 'Yellowstone' actor has a prenuptial agreement in place this time, Baumgartner may not get much.

It is unclear how the rumor began or even who Costner allegedly got pregnant. However, the baseless claim has been making the rounds on social media since his wife filed for divorce on Monday. "Streets saying that Kevin Costner, who's almost 70 mind you, got a Yellowstone PA pregnant and that's also why his wife is divorcing him???" one person tweeted. "I wonder now, if the drama surrounding Kevin Costner and Yellowstone 'scheduling,' was due to the rumor of him potentially getting someone on set pregnant?" another speculated. "So it wasn’t Bentley who got a girl pregnant on the Yellowstone set ... it was Costner," someone else proposed.

I wonder now, if the drama surrounding Kevin Costner and Yellowstone “scheduling,” was due to the rumor of him potentially getting someone on set pregnant? Was he trying to avoid or is there more to it? Or just a rumor?

Sources close to Costner, however, told TMZ that there is no truth to these claims. They said the latest bit of gossip surrounding the star is "total BS" and that it has been circulating online baselessly. It was TMZ that broke the story of Costner's divorce as a rep for the actor told the outlet, "It is with great sadness that circumstances beyond his control have transpired which have resulted in Mr. Costner having to participate in a dissolution of marriage action," adding, "We ask that his, Christine’s and their children’s privacy be respected as they navigate this difficult time."
That said, insiders also told the tabloid that Costner had no prior warning Baumgartner was filing to end their 18-year marriage and that he's still in the dark about it. Divorce documents listed the date of separation as last month, but sources told TMZ that Costner had no idea the marriage was ending. The actor filed a response to the divorce petition in which the prenup agreement was referenced, requiring Baumgartner to vacate her husband's three homes.
Costner and Baumgartner first began dating in 1998 after having crossed paths in 1996 when the actor was filming his movie 'Tin Cup.' He confessed at the time that he wasn't ready to fall in love again when he first met her. Both Costner and Baumgartner graduated from California State University, with the latter earning a degree in business. The lovers eventually married in 2004 in the Aspen estate and went on to have three children together, namely Cayden, 15, Hayes, 14, and Grace, 12. Now, Baumgartner is seeking joint custody of them after deciding to part ways with her husband of 18 years.
