Kevin Costner divorce

[Anonymous]

Yeah, I’m shocked this is a 95 page thread. Costner probably is a nobody to anyone younger than GenX. I was never a fan but not invested enough to argue with strangers online. That’s weird. Maybe there’s a crazy stalker fan who made their way to DCUM. This story is not as interesting as the anonymous internet fan fighting subplot.

It was a high profile messy divorce so grabbed attention for a bit during the initial press releases. I really don’t think people care about Kevin Costner and if they had parted amicably, it would’ve been a nothing burger, but there were interesting things the press picked up on like how they were fighting over a set of knives and things.

So I get the initial interest, but not sure why it’s ongoing. Outside of this thread I have not seen a lot of media reporting other than a few short pieces on Christine’s wedding. But unlike the Baldoni and lively case which I’ve seen headlines for weekly and there’s tons of Reddit threads and ongoing activity, I’m not seeing that with this. I follow a lot of pop culture and celeb podcasts and no one is reporting on this anymore. So to act as if there is a big conspiracy to smear either one just feels off base. If it is, it’s not effective because truly no one cares.

It wasn't just trying to crack a random prenuptial agreement, this was something extremely high profile that would establish legal precedent and go into law textbooks. You don't think Cali law firms are deploying sophisticated PR and online narrative campaigns? You're very naive.

Right, and we are in agreement that that was the case two years ago. But all of this was settled in 2023. Christine just got remarried and has moved on. They settled everything in court and she is no longer fighting the prenup and hasn’t been in the last two years. There’s no conspiracy.

The bulk of this thread is from 2 years ago. It occasionally gets bumped when something new about them hits the press - eg people claiming he is dating Jewel, her engagement and now marriage.

The original post you’re still arguing about said that “The mud slinging in this thread over the years is very strange and seemingly very inorganic.” They weren’t speaking to the posts from the last 2 days.

And every time you bump this thread trying to make your point, you bring it up to the top of Recent Topics which puts it back on the radar of people to comment. Just like any ghost thread that is bumped here, people don’t pay attention to the age of the thread they just jump in and start commenting as if it’s a brand new thread.

This thread was near the top of Google results when you searched for the divorce drama. Any hypothetical PR and smear bots would have found it quickly.

That depends on your algorithm though. I am just newly coming to this thread and havent engaged much and when I did that search, Kevin didn’t come up at all. It was a lot of Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, a lot of Britney Spears since her ex had got his book coming out, and a bunch of other random celebs some who have I never even heard of.

This is really old news.

You searched Kevin Costner divorce in google and Nicole Kidman and Brittney Spears came up?

The ex-wife marrying her alleged paramour is not old news, it just happened last weekend and was the front page of all the tabloids. And it's at the top of Google search because this thread has over 70,000 views. Find me another thread on the internet about this divorce with anywhere close to as much engagement.

I doubt any middle aged mums in the DC region care about Costner to such a degree, let alone with such spirited disdain. Was the gold digging ex-wife and/or her reps deploying online smear tactics like we've seen detailed in those Blake Lively lawsuits? Sure seems like it.

Are you new here? This is the entertainment forum. The whole point is for people to post opinions and discuss gossip about celebs.

The conspiracy theories are a bit much . Kevin Costner is in the twilight of his career. Do you really think he’s paying people to go to a random mommy website in the DC area to post maybe a couple of dozen posts that he’s not old and not a cheater? To what end? Or conversely that his ex-wife is trying to salvage her reputation in the DC area? She’s not even an entertainer and she just married a wealthy financier plus she did fine in the divorce financially. I doubt she cares what anyone thinks.

It makes no sense.

Online smearing is not about DC moms, it's about using bots and employees and juke search engines and AI. The baseless smearing was nearly all ANTI-Costner.

I know how it all works, but it cost money and people who do it, like Blake lively, and Justin Baldoni, do it because there’s a lot of stake for them. I believe both of them engaged in this kind of behavior. Blake was trying to launch a brand new business and re-launch her movie career after years of having kids. Justin is in the early stages of launching a production company. The stakes are big for both of them and so I understand why they engage in this kind of behavior.

No one has explained why Christine, at least a year after her divorce, would still be paying bots and others to engage online about her ex-husband. She is not trying to launch a brand or do any kind of business, she is a private citizen and happy to stay that way. As evidenced in this thread, she spends her days going to lunch, doing beauty treatments, and shopping. She’s already remarried and moved on.

No one cares about Kevin Costner. This thread illustrates that perfectly. It’s filled with out of touch boomers who still think KC is handsome.

I completely believe maybe in the weeks after their divorce to look better Christine engaged in this kind of behavior, but to act as if she’s still paying people to do this kind of engagement is just out of touch.

Clearly you do not think Kevin Costner is handsome but the fact you are commenting on this thread means you do care about him, albeit in a negative way. And that's ok because this is a discussion forum.
