<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/kevin-costner">Kevin Costner</a>’s estranged wife Christine Baumgartner is seeking $248,000 in monthly child support payments, according to recently filed court documents.
The former handbag designer alleges the figure &#8220;is less than the amount needed to maintain the children in their accustomed lifestyle,” per a report from <a href="https://people.com/kevin-costner-estranged-wife-christine-requests-248k-child-support-7550920">People</a>. Baumgartner also requests that Costner continue paying 100% of private-school tuition, extracurricular activities and sports, plus health-care expenses for their three children. The couple was married for 18 years before filing for <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/marriage">divorce</a> on May 2. 
They share two sons, Cayden, 16, and Hayes, 14, and daughter Grace, 13.
The documents state that Costner’s 2022 income was $19,517,0641, per the report from People. There was also a breakdown of the family’s expenses totaling $6,645,285, which included travel, entertaining, catering, and upkeep on multiple properties.
This brought their income after expenses and taxes to $7,595,520. 
Baumgartner was refusing to leave the former couple’s residence despite a clause in their prenuptial agreement mandating that she do so within 30 days of a divorce filing, The Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kevin-costners-estranged-wife-refuses-to-vacate-home-until-financial-demands-are-met-report">reported</a>.
The documents laid out terms for the “Yellowstone” actor to pay $38,000 a month in child support plus provide “100% of certain child related costs, including private school tuition, books, fees and uniforms and school trips, children’s sports, camps and other agreed upon extracurricular activities.”
Costner would also pay $30,000 monthly toward a rental home for Christine and $10,000 toward moving costs. His total estimated net worth is $145 million.
The 68-year-old actor recently made headlines for his decision to leave the hit television series “Yellowstone” and pursue his own Western-themed project, “Horizon.” 
In mid-May, Costner <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kevin-costner-hints-at-new-western-movie-amid-yellowstone-exit">shared an image</a> to social media of a director’s chair in front of a desert landscape that said, “We’re deep into the production of #HorizonFilm, and, I have to tell you, I haven’t felt this way about a movie since we were making ‘Dances With Wolves.’ Can’t wait to share it with all of you.”
