She was very young and pretty and in love with him. At that stage of the relationship, she probably didn't realize how controlling and determined he is. There doesn't appear to have been an affair with someone else on her part; and they were married for 20 years with 3 kids, so I can't imagine why he's treating her this way.
Her rental home isn't inexpensive, but there's nothing exceptional about it by DCUM standards or for the ex-wife of a guy worth $400 million.


She was almost 30. Not “very young.”


PP here. It's "very young" to me, plus there was an 18 year difference between them. Regardless of what she should have or didn't do, Kevin Costner's true ungenerous self is being observed by the world.

Christine isn’t exactly doing herself any favors.


Neither is Mr. Kevin Costner. Worth 400 million dollars and giving his wife of 20 years 1.5 million towards a new home?! Yep, we get it.

She was familiar with the prenup she signed when she chose to exit the marriage. Why is this news to her?


I have no idea why she couldn't figure out that he was miserly and cheap -- from the first small engagement ring that Joan Rivers mocked and thought was a joke -- to his offer of 1.5 million for a home.



I think most people's objection to the prenup is that this sum was decent 20 years ago but needs to be updated for today's market.



Yeah, seems her biggest gripe is housing and rightly so.

Yikes. I assume you are raising basement dwellers then? I can’t imagine not doing my child the essential favor of seeing a 30-year-old (!!) as a fully-formed adult capable of making her own decisions. That’s horrifying.


Oh, Please. PP here. Will just "young" work for you? Of course she was a fully formed adult. In the grand scheme of life, however, 30 is young. Have a great day!


Look, you either believe her capable of making a decision—with legal counsel—at age 30 or not. If you don’t, what else do you think 30-year-olds aren’t capable of? Having kids? Holding jobs? Public office?

It’s embarrassing for you that you think someone in their 30s isn’t a fully capable adult.


Get back to us when you turn 60+.


I’m not far off. And I think what you are saying is insulting to 30-year-olds.

You didn’t answer the question, either. Since you think 30-year-olds with legal counsel don’t have the capacity to make their own decisions, what else do you think they are incapable of deciding?


Clearly, she didn't make a good decision.


Fine, but like most adults who don’t make a good decision, she will have to learn to live with the consequences.

Not everyone is that tacky.


At least they can take care of themselves. I find borrowing money from your husband’s friend tacky, but she borrowed $20k from Costner’s friend.


There's more than one way to be tacky.

They’ve been together 20 years! That’s crazy. She should have insisted her name be on the deed to their shared home.


He had the house before they got married and he told her that is his house. He also told her the other properties are for his children. She was focused on spending money on superficial things instead of finding a way to build her personal wealth.
