There’s no love lost between Kevin Costner and his ex-wife Christine Baumgartner, who finalized their divorce earlier this week after six bitter months when Christine challenged the prenup she signed ahead of their 2004 wedding.

Exploring Prenuptial Agreements

Harvey Levin and celeb divorce attorney Chris Melcher dive into the prenup world by role-playing as an engaged couple. Chris lays it all out, explaining the importance of having a prenup in place so both parties understand their financial expectations and know their marriage will be protected.

HL fires back, expressing entitlement to half of what he earns simply because they’re partners, highlighting their contrasting views on the matter.

Chris emphasizes the need for peace of mind in case things go south, stating that an open-ended deal would lead to calling off the wedding entirely.

The Divorce Drama

Even though Christine signed a prenup with Kevin, things quickly turned acrimonious between the pair as she asked for an eye-popping $248,000 a month after filing for divorce, listing $100,000 for cosmetic surgery as an expense declaration. She ended up getting $63,000 a month in child support.
