Kevin Costner and Ex Dispute Who Gets Silverware, Bowls and TVs as She Prepares to Move Out

Kevin Costner is taking steps to protect what he claims is his property as his estranged wife Christine prepares to move out.

According to new court documents obtained by PEOPLE, the California Superior Court judge presiding over the Costners' divorce granted the 68-year-old Yellowstone star's request for a motion that would block Christine, 49, from removing certain items from the Santa Barbara, California, home where they lived during their marriage.

"Christine shall be permitted to remove her toiletries, clothing, handbags and jewelry," according to the Friday order signed by Judge Thomas Anderle. The former handbag designer is prohibited, however, from taking "any other items of property including, but not limited to, furniture, furnishings, appliances, and artwork."

Kevin alleged that under the terms of the premarital agreement they signed before marrying in 2004 there is "no community property."

"[Christine’s] counsel has stated, in writing, that [Christine] 'plans' to remove many items which are not [her] separate property," the documents stated.

Costner's legal team said they asked Christine's side to itemize the personal items she wished to take, and received a "hopelessly vague and ambiguous" list in response.

"For instance, Petitioner lists 'Plates and bowls/ silverware' without specifying which plates, which bowls and which silverware. She lists 'Christine’s family heirlooms and/or gifts to her' but does not specify which items she believes were gifted to her (as opposed to both parties or the children)," according to the document.

"She lists 'Christine’s personal electronic' but fails to specify what that means. Is a TV a 'personal' electronic? Is she referring to household computers? Which ones?" the document stated.

Some of the things on the list of items that Christine wants to take, including outdoor furniture, gym equipment and art are Kevin's property, according to the document.

Apparently, Kevin was concerned Christine would take too many pots and pans – a complaint quite trivial given his 2022 income of about $24,000,000 and claimed net worth of about $200,000,000 (which we believe is understated)."

At a July 5 hearing related to the Costners’ divorce, Judge Anderle also ruled that Christine must vacate the Santa Barbara estate — worth an estimated $145 million — where she and Kevin raised their three children, sons Cayden, 16, and Hayes, 14, and daughter Grace, 13.
