<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/kevin-costner">Kevin Costner</a>’s divorce drama is still going strong as estranged <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/celebrities">wife</a> Christine accused the actor of “withholding” financial information ahead of a court hearing on child support.
The former handbag designer, 49, and the “Yellowstone” <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/hollywood">actor</a>, 68, announced they were divorcing in May after being married for 18 years. They have three children: Cayden, 16, Hayes, 14, and Grace, 13.
Court documents filed this week show how Christine petitioned the court to compel her ex to produce documents related to his business dealings, including upcoming entertainment projects, per a report from <a href="https://people.com/kevin-costner-ex-accuses-withholding-evidence-finances-he-responds-7814351">People</a>. 
“[Kevin] has requested a multi-day evidentiary hearing on [Christine’s] request for child support, at which time the Court will receive evidence regarding [Kevin’s] gross cash flow available for support and anticipated future income. [Kevin] has also requested a trial to determine the validity of the parties&#8217; Premarital Agreement, the unconscionability of which will depend on an analysis of how the terms of that agreement compare to the parties&#8217; present financial realities,” Christine’s lawyer wrote in the document.

“The Court will need to receive evidence regarding those circumstances to make its determination. However, [Christine] will be unable to present any evidence that [Kevin] has chosen to withhold from discovery,” the attorney wrote.
Christine had requested $248,000 per month in child support in June. Despite Costner’s income being a reported $20 million, the actor disputed the request and said he could not afford that amount.  
Costner has been actively promoting his new Western series, “Horizon,” which was mentioned in the documents. 
The attorneys asked for details on the upcoming project &#8220;as such documents evidence his future endeavors and anticipated income.” They accuse the actor of “withholding” this paperwork in particular. 
The “Yellowstone” actor’s attorney responded to the request, the outlet noted, calling it “burdensome, oppressive and harassing.”
“These documents have no bearing on Christine&#8217;s request for child support and her ability to calculate Kevin&#8217;s gross cash flow available for child support,” an attorney for Costner wrote of the request.
Christine is entitled to a $1.5 million payout per the premarital agreement and was temporarily awarded $129,755 per month in child support in July.

Kevin Costner’s Estranged Wife Accuses Him Of ‘Withholding’ Financial Info Amid Divorce Battle

CONTINUE READING

Daily Wire podcast host Michael Knowles made an appearance on &#8220;Fox News @ Night&#8221; on Thursday to discuss the impact of Charlie Kirk’s assassination on our nation.
Host Trace Gallagher asked Knowles to react to a comment that Director of Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard made comparing Kirk’s assassin to the terrorists who attacked the United States on 9/11.
“There’s a common characteristic between Charlie Kirk’s assassin and the Islamist terrorist organization Al Qaeda who attacked us on 9/11 in that they both sought to silence those who they did not agree with. They both recognized that their ideologies, their views, would not stand up to being challenged,” Gabbard said.  
Gallagher asked Knowles to expand on the idea.
“Of course I think that’s why Charlie’s death is hitting so many millions of people in such a profound way,” the podcast host began. “You know, all of us were friends with the guy, but he had so many more millions of admirers … grown men who have broken down sobbing &#8212; and they texted me this. And they couldn’t figure out why. But I think it’s because Charlie was the most significant political figure of his generation. We all thought he was going to be president someday.”
He went on to explain how the radical Left saw Kirk as a threat because he was powerful without being in power.
“He didn’t hold office. And he didn’t pass laws. And he didn’t wield direct political power,” Knowles observed. “All this guy did was go into hostile territory and sit down and try to talk out the issue respectfully, generously, graciously, as always. And I think a lot of people feel a great fear and sadness that not only did this great man die, but that the idea might have died as well.”
The podcast host also noted how Kirk was consistent in his messaging.
“One of my favorite things about Charlie, and I had many favorite things, is that he applied eternal principles to constantly changing political circumstances. And he was the very best at going out and having open discourse in an open field in this case. And if the opponents would not tolerate that in the end … the Left simply would not tolerate that and murdered him for it, then I think that we need to restore order in a way that has a little bit more force to it … to prevent these tragedies from happening in the future.”

Michael Knowles Reflects On Why Charlie Kirk’s Death Feels So ‘Profound’ For People

Avowed leftist author Stephen King was forced to admit his error and apologize after being caught spreading lies about slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
As other &#8220;progressives&#8221; on social media tried to justify the brutal assassination of Kirk at a free speech event at Utah Valley University on Wednesday, King piled on by sharing a tweet that said, “He advocated stoning gays to death. Just sayin.’”
Multiple accounts swarmed the comments with evidence of Kirk being civil towards gay people while presenting socially conservative viewpoints and maintaining a biblical view of marriage in his personal life. 
Kirk’s fans and friends went after King, sharing clips of the TPUSA founder speaking with gay people and welcoming them to the conservative movement.
“Hey [Stephen King], you are more monstrous than any of the characters you ever came up with. Charlie was never anything but kind to me and my husband,” conservative commentator Dave Rubin <a href="https://x.com/RubinReport/status/1966299918202540515">replied</a> on X.
“We broke bread many times, and he never treated us with anything other than respect. He even came to our house not too long ago and plot twist, didn’t throw rocks at us. Write about that sometime, you hack,” he added.
“Why would Stephen King post something so blatantly false?” X owner Elon Musk wondered.
Others shared screenshots of Kirk’s previous tweets, including one that said, “I believe marriage is one man one woman. Also gay people should be welcome in the conservative movement. As Christians we are called to love everyone. I will always stand against people who wish to establish their own personal values as a reason to kick others out of the movement.”
The backlash and facts became so severe that King backtracked and apologized on Friday morning.
“I apologize for saying Charlie Kirk advocated stoning gays. What he actually demonstrated was how some people cherry-pick Biblical passages,” the horror author <a href="https://x.com/StephenKing/status/1966474125616013664">wrote</a>.

Stephen King Walks Back Lie About Charlie Kirk With Half-Hearted Apology

President Donald Trump stopped by “Fox &amp; Friends” Friday morning to do a studio interview and share updates on the capture of Charlie Kirk’s alleged killer. During the course of the conversation, the president related a personal anecdote about what Kirk meant to his youngest son, Barron.
“He was very hurt when he saw this. But, I mean, everybody was,” the president said.
Trump <a href="https://x.com/FreyjaTarte/status/1966494250364702787">recalled</a> that Barron, who is currently living in the White House while attending college at New York University’s DC campus, once asked his dad to make an introduction.
“Barron came to me and he said, ‘Dad, I’d like to meet somebody that you know, Charlie Kirk.’ … I thought he was gonna say he wanted to meet like King Charles or something … and I set up a lunch &#8230; and he came back and said, ‘That guy’s great, Dad. That guy’s great.’ It was cute,” Trump said during the studio interview.
He added, “Charlie had a magic over the kids and large numbers of them, and very diverse, black, white. I mean, everybody, the young women and boys, and I’ve never seen anything like it.”
“We lost an unbelievable warrior,” Trump added.
Kirk was known for his influence over young people and his willingness to engage in debate with them, empowering young conservatives to speak the truth on hostile, liberal college campuses.
“It’s kind of scary to say what you believe in, especially in this cancel culture,” Porter LaFeber, a student at Utah Valley University, <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/11/us/charlie-kirk-men.html">told</a> The New York Times. “Charlie Kirk seemed like he just went totally above that. He kind of gave a voice to the people that were maybe a little bit scared.”
“He gave me the confidence to be able to believe what I believe,” LaFeber added.
On Thursday night, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson was arrested in connection with Kirk’s assassination. Robinson was a resident of Utah but did not attend UVU.

Trump Shares Touching Story Of Barron Wanting To Meet Charlie Kirk

The women of “The View” are known for delusional takes, but when it came to discussing the assassination of Charlie Kirk, they displayed a remarkable amount of restraint and introspection, for once.
Panelist Whoopi Goldberg began by calling the shooting “beyond devastating.”
“Our hearts, of course, go out to the family of Charlie Kirk,” she added, praising “politicians from both sides of the aisle” who spoke out “against the violence” and “urged Americans to come together” in the wake of the tragedy.
“Isn’t a fundamental part of being an American is that we’re able to express our opinions to each other without fear and this kind of horror happening?” Goldberg went on. “It seems to be something we’ve been seeing more and more of. It’s not even Left or Right. It’s just people being taken out because of their beliefs or their thoughts.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Some of what The View had to say about Charlie Kirk&#8217;s assassination:
ALYSSA FARAH GRIFFIN: I hope it doesn&#8217;t have a chilling effect whether you&#8217;re left or right on your ability to speak your mind. I know the one thing we all agree about on this table, we all share our… <a href="https://t.co/i7eNIuMfx7">pic.twitter.com/i7eNIuMfx7</a>
— Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) <a href="https://twitter.com/NickFondacaro/status/1966168993850446087?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 11, 2025</a></blockquote>
“Regardless of your politics, we’ve got to get to a place in this country where we see people we disagree with not as our enemies, but as fellow Americans with different viewpoints that we need to engage,” co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin chimed in.
She said Kirk was an “incredibly influential young activist on the Right” and that his death “is going to hit young Republicans really hard because he made them feel like when they were the lone conservative voice on campus, one of the only Republicans, that it was okay to speak up and say their viewpoints.”
Sarah Haines said, &#8220;He&#8217;d talk to people openly, who disagreed. So the irony of being violently killed while saying those words of what we need more of in this country, I know all of us agree on that part. There&#8217;s never a place for political violence.&#8221;
The tone of all the panelists was somber as they discussed the assassination.
“I can’t believe that someone would kill another person because they were speaking their beliefs. This is antithetical to who we are as Americans. The First Amendment is the First Amendment for a reason. We should be able to voice whatever opinions we have,” Sunny Hostin chimed in.
Goldberg ended the segment with instructions for viewers going forward. 
“All the things we’ve seen — the attempted assassination of Donald Trump, the aggressiveness when they went after Paul Pelosi, the couple in Minnesota — this is not the way we do it,” she said. “We say this every time, but, somehow, it’s not resonating, and I hope that young Republicans never forget that they have voice. They have a voice. We all have voices. We should never ever be afraid. It’s beyond, beyond. And Charlie Kirk’s assassin is still at large.”

‘The View’ Reacts To Charlie Kirk Assassination: ‘Antithetical To Who We Are As Americans’

The transgender-identifying comic book creator who celebrated Charlie Kirk’s death on social media will no longer be producing work for DC Comics, the entertainment company has announced.
The mature readers comic series “Red Hood,” a Batman spinoff project, was written by Gretchen Felker-Martin and had artwork by Jeff Spokes. The first book launched on the same day Kirk was murdered, September 10. 
Felker-Martin’s account on Bluesky is currently suspended, but other users took screenshots to capture his vile reactions. When reports first came in that Kirk was shot, the comic book creator <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/soupytoasterson.bsky.social/post/3lyk4wfhtgk2r">wrote</a>, “Thoughts and prayers you Nazi b****.”
“Hope the bullet’s okay after touching Charlie Kirk,” a follow-up post said.
“The job market is grim, but there’s a silver lining: Gavin Newsom needs a new co-host for his podcast,” Felker-Martin wrote in a third post, referencing a time Kirk and Newsom filmed a podcast episode together.
This prompted DC to cancel the next two planned installments of “Red Hood” and offer retailers reimbursement for any unsold copies of the first issue.
In a statement to io9, DC said it places “the highest value on our creators and community and affirm the right to peaceful, individual expression of personal viewpoints. Posts or public comments that can be viewed as promoting hostility or violence are inconsistent with DC’s standards of conduct,” per <a href="https://gizmodo.com/dc-ends-red-hood-comic-after-writers-charlie-kirk-comments-2000657517">Gizmodo</a>.
This isn’t the first time the trans-identifying man celebrated violence. Referring to anti-trans activist J.K. Rowling, Felker-Martin previously <a href="https://www.them.us/story/bluesky-moderation-suspension-jk-rowling-jessie-earl">wrote</a> on Bluesky, “I hope someone splits her skull,&#8221; earning himself a temporary suspension for violation of policies.
In 2022, Felker-Martin made <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/04/22/writer-gretchen-felker-martin-under-fire-for-killing-j-k-rowling-in-novel/">headlines</a> for releasing the novel “Manhunt,” which included a storyline about burning Rowling alive. He described the book as a, “depraved psychosexual horrorshow.”
Other media personalities were also penalized for their reactions to Kirk’s assassination. Middle Tennessee State University terminated an employee following what the university president described as “inappropriate and callous” comments made on social media.
In a statement released late Wednesday night, MTSU President Sidney A. McPhee confirmed that the employee was let go.
“This employee has been fired effective immediately,” McPhee stated. “We extend our deepest sympathies to the Kirk family.”
MSNBC also severed ties with Matt Dowd for his reaction to the tragedy.
“Hateful thoughts lead to hateful words, which then lead to hateful actions,” Dowd said during an appearance on “Katy Tur Reports” just after the shooting. “You can’t stop with these sort of awful thoughts you have and then saying these awful words and then not expect awful actions to take place.”
Dowd added, “We don’t know if this was a supporter shooting their gun off in celebration. So we have no idea about this.”
MSNBC apologized for his remarks, with network president Rebecca Kutler calling the comments “inappropriate, insensitive and unacceptable” in a statement posted to social media.
“We apologize for his statements, as has he,” Kutler wrote. “There is no place for violence in America, political or otherwise.”

DC Comics Cancels Batman Spinoff Series After Creator Celebrates Charlie Kirk’s Murder

Leftists are losing their minds over social media influencer Jeffree Star having a compassionate, human response to the assassination of Charlie Kirk. 
The makeup brand founder, who has more than 13 million followers on Instagram and close to 8 million on TikTok, clapped back at those who accused him of being a Republican because of his reaction. 
“Am I Republican? No, I’m a person,” Star said during his livestream, which included footage of him reacting to the news that Kirk had been shot at a college event in Utah. “Because I’m standing up for someone that passed away, I’m now being called names in the chat.”
“He encouraged everyone to speak about their beliefs, whether he believed them or not,” the pink-haired influencer and makeup enthusiast said in the TikTok clip, which has been widely circulated on X.

“So a grown man that goes around the country, debating people, spitting facts, was just taken out. And I’m not over it… So no, I’m not a Republican. No, I’m not a Democrat. I’m Jeffree Star. Stop trying to label me.”
“Charlie Kirk fought … for the truth,” he added. “He debated everybody. And you guys cannot argue that.” Star mentioned Kirk’s young daughter and started tearing up, saying the tragedy makes him “so sick.” 
At another point, reacting to the comments being posted, Star said people who identify as transgender are in the wrong.
“This is what’s wrong with a lot of you people. You will never get far in life. You are sick in the head,” Star said as angry comments from viewers continued to come in. “Someone just said they’re unsubscribing from me … Thank God. Please! If you believe in they/thems, you are part of the problem. If you’re stupid enough to go against science, please unfollow me.”
The social media influencer said you can “be whoever you want to be,” but that doesn’t override physical reality. “The truth hurts a lot of you, I see,” he added.
“Yes, I am a grown ass man that wears makeup,” he said. “I will always be a male. My name is Jeffrey … I am a male that likes cosmetics.” 
“All these grown men going into women’s bathrooms and wearing wigs, you should all be in prison forever. You are the problem.”
“Politics aside, biology will never change,” Star said. “Why is that up for debate?”
