Kevin Costner's estranged wife agrees to move out of his compound, but only if he OKs her six figure monthly support request: court docs

• Kevin Costner and his ex are in the midst of an increasingly bitter divorce.
• Costner has demanded his wife of nearly two decades move out of his compound.

The estranged spouse of veteran actor Kevin Costner said she is willing to move out of their palatial California marital compound — but on one condition.

Christine Baumgartner, 49, filed court papers June 28 in their increasingly acrimonious divorce to OK the "Dances With Wolves" star's demand that she move out of the Santa Barbara compound by the end of the summer, but only if he agrees to pay her $248,000 a month in child support, according to court papers obtained by Insider.

"Kevin's statement…that I have 'refused' to move out is simply not true," Baumgartner said in her most recent divorce declaration. "Since the initiation of this divorce, I have repeatedly told Kevin (both directly and through counsel) that I would move out once a child support order or agreement was in place. And I have taken steps to demonstrate my commitment to doing so by investigating available housing options."

The filing comes just a week before the pair — parents to Cayden, 16, Hayes, 14 and Grace 13 — are set to meet face to face in front of a judge over whether Baumgartner has the legal right to remain in the home, which Costner disputes.

Costner said he has offered Baumgartner $30,000 in monthly child support payments, but Baumgartner said she needs $248,000 a month to maintain the lifestyle the children grew up in, their court papers state. Baumgartner, a handbag designer, said she is unemployed and has no assets besides the $50,000 in her checking account.

Costner, meanwhile, made $19 million in 2022 and paid all of their family's $6.6 million in expenses, according to Baumgartner's court filings.

A judge has yet to rule in the case.

Baumgartner filed for divorce last month, citing "irreconcilable differences." Costner then filed a motion to evict his wife from their marital home, arguing that she agreed in their prenuptial agreement to vacate the property within 30 days if they split.

Costner said that in addition to his $30,000 monthly support offer, he has proposed paying Baumgartner $1 million towards a new house, and paying the mortgage, insurance and taxes on the place for a year, according to his court papers.

Baumgartner responded with legal documents accusing the "Yellowstone" actor of trying to illegally turf both her and their three teenagers out of the home they grew up in — an allegation that Costner denied.

"Kevin wants me to rent a place without a financial plan in place," Baumgartner said in the June 28 declaration. "However, I have our three children to think about. It is contrary to their best interests to commit to a rental that I may not be able to afford, particularly as that would ultimately lead to multiple relocations."

Lawyers for Baumgartner and Costner did not respond to Insider's request for comment.
