Kevin Costner's estranged wife has moved into "staff quarters" on the actor's estate.
Christine Baumgartner was ordered to move out of the ocean-front home she shared with the 'Yellowstone' star, and after moving trucks were seen leaving the $145 million compound on Friday (28.07.23), it has now emerged she has found a "temporary solution" to ensure she was out of the abode in accordance with the 31 July deadline set by the court and is still house-hunting.
A source told People magazine: “Christine is following the legal advice per the pre-nup and is vacating the family house. She will stay at a smaller house on the property that’s been used as a staff quarter.
"This is a temporary solution. She is still looking for another house. She is staying in the area to not disrupt the kids’ lives. They will be back at school in the fall with their friends. "Christine is trying to keep everything as normal as possible. Her sole focus is the kids."
Christine was ordered to vacate the California mansion by the end of the month after a judge reinforced the premarital agreement they both signed in 2004.
Documents obtained by Page Six show the 'Dances With Wolves' actor claimed his ex bought personal items and took out cash with credit cards from the staff that runs the family house, and that he believed she devised this plan before she filed for divorce in May.
The documents, filed on 13 July also alleged Christine paid a Los Angeles lawyer $25,000 from her husband’s property funds without his knowledge.
They added she paid her divorce lawyer Susan Wiesner on the “credit card of an employee which is traditionally used for Costner family house charges and paid by (Costner)."
