While Kevin Costner is seemingly checking out the dating pool, his ex-wife Christine Baumgartner may already be walking down the aisle again soon with her beau Josh Connor.
Sources recently told Radar Online exclusively that Costner isn’t too thrilled about his ex-wife potentially marrying his pal soon.
“Now he’s hearing Christine is firming up plans to marry Josh, who used to be his friend, and it hurts,” the source said. “Kevin thought he was over Christine, who apparently blindsided him with divorce papers. But the combination of things including his rotten luck with Horizon…. has got him fixating on where everything went wrong.”
The insider added, “They are together all the time and the talk among their mutual friends is that they’re moving toward an official engagement and wedding. It makes Kevin sick. He feels like he’s been stabbed in the back and never got an apology from Josh.”
For those who don’t know, Costner and Baumgartner divorced last year amid a lengthy battle. Soon after, Baumgartner started dating Connor (However, Costner alleged there was an overlap between their relationship and her new one.)
Baumgartner and Connor allegedly met through their daughters, both 13 at the time, who are close friends, but Connor and Costner were pals beforehand. Since then, they’ve been seen on vacations, and Baumgartner has allegedly moved closer to Connor. Now, there are already musings of wedding bells.
Now, this isn’t entirely shocking when you remember that Connor’s friends told DailyMail that Connor has been telling everyone that he’s serious about Baumgartner.
“Josh knows he can give her what Kevin didn’t, even though he is a high-powered executive with his own demanding career,” the source said. “He also know how important her children are to her – as his are to him. Trying to blend two families isn’t easy but she’s worth it.”
