Kevin Costner divorce

This wasn’t some short term marriage, this was a long-term family that is breaking up. Not saying she should get 50%, but there are a lot of reasons he should be more generous. Just imagine the difference for the kids, who are able to read about these details in the press. Kevin has the ability to choose to hold her to this very lopsided prenup and be legally in the right but a spiteful jerk in the eyes of his kids. Or….. he can offer to give her more than what he is legally obligated to give her and come off as the bigger person who cared more about not screwing over the mother of his kids for the sake of spite.

And with this level of income disparity it IS spite. $1 million is NOTHING when it comes to real estate there. She would most likely have to move the kids to different school districts to find an affordable home….. and who is that punishing? All of them. It isn’t like Kevin will stop acting and be the full time parent in their normal neighborhood.

No idea what is really fair here, but if I were him I’d at least offer to buy her a house , even if he keeps it in his name and just let’s her and the kids live there until the youngest is 18. That would be a decent thing to do with very little cost to himself.

No the kids will not suffer visiting mom in a $2M + home … they will all be off to college in 1-4 years.

Mom is a designer. She is getting an insane amount of money and she can easily add to that by working.

She wants to extort him for an annual $3,000,000 salary (“child support”) to sit on her butt until the kids turn 19? She’s probably never cleared $30,000 in any job she’s ever had.

The million bucks cash and a reasonable sum for child support is plenty. He takes care of all expenses.

She’s just showing her true devious color here. She signed the pre-nup when she was a grown a** 30 years old. She eagerly signed it, too, because no other high status guys as rich as this were banging her door down.

The prenup seems quite unusual in terms of duration.

Who cares if she cheated, embezzled money, and wants to break a pre-nup she signed! Kevin should just write her a check for $30 million cash! I’m sure he won’t miss it!

lol

Well stated, except he should just give her enough money to buy her own home, not stay in control of her housing and kick the can down the road a few years.

Some bitter, bitter women posting on here. Comparing a surrogate to a woman that’s been a SAHM? Give me a break. I can’t even imagine the kind of mother a woman is that thinks those two roles are even comparable.

SAHM? Haha! How many nannies, house cleaners, and various help and servants were on staff? This is a layabout gold digger who popped out 3 kids. Big whoop.

What a misogynistic thing to say. You're still parenting even if you have lots of domestic help. No need to be so bitter and jealous.

Yeah he must have taken advantage of her. I mean she was only *checks notes* 30 years old when she signed it.

Nine figure net worth Hollywood A-lister help is not the same as a pair of feds with an undocumented housecleaner and a landscaping crew — or even an au pair.

The point was this same forum thinks it’s perfectly okay to exploit underclass women to be surrogates for a pittance, thus placing a very small market value on pregnancy and childbirth. But for some reason that market value balloons to tens of millions of dollars if a SAHM layabout sits on her butt making plastic surgery appointments and flirting with the pool boy for 15 years while a roster of servants does everything? Give me a break.

It doesn’t matter where she lives - the kids most likely go to private school. There is no school district she has to live in. Lol.

Mom is long-term unemployed. Did she even graduate from Cal State Fullerton? If not, unemployed, lazy, and dim.

$400m and she gets a $1m property settlement (.25%) is spite. It’s a terrible offer to a woman you’ve been with for 25 years and had 3 children with. Much of his estate was built over the course of their married life. A reasonable, non evil person would’ve quietly given her a minimum of $10m (still less than 5%) and avoided all the negative publicity.

It's reasonable, isn't it? Especially it's not YOUR money. I would give her $200 mil (50%) to be generous.

So sad that you have no value in a SAHM.

Also it is the SAHM who watch his movies. I just do not think I can watch him anymore. He should settle with an appropriate amount of money for a long term marriage FYI if they were just married five years and no kids the. yes the prenup makes sense but that prenup and the philosophy around it has long since expired. He is ruthless and maybe this is why she is divorcing him.

Exactly! The more he reveals himself the sorrier I’m feeling for his kids. And listen, I’m no fan of hers - she sounds plastic pre-surgery and the disgusting conspicuous consumption lifestyle they both admit to is stomach turning.

What has me angry is his obvious disregard for his kids’ feelings; demanding to tell them about the divorce via Zoom video call 10 minutes duration rather than wait to do it in person with their mom present also, he’s controlling and vindictive and at 68 years of age has still not learned to put his children first.

I bet Cindy is watching all this and just grateful she got out when she did. I bet his adult kids are watching all this and having ALL kinds of feelings.

Kevin Costner is revealing himself to be a narcissist and a bad father, period. He is also apparently so malignantly narcissistic that he isn’t comprehending the damage he is doing to his brand. Horizon is going to fail, mark my words - you heard it here first.
