Yahoo Lifestyle Kevin Costner's Ex Is Reportedly Engaged 1 Year After Legal Battle With 'Yellowstone' Star
Christine Baumgartner is ready to say, "I do!"
The 50-year-old designer and ex-wife of Kevin Costner is reportedly engaged to financier Josh Connor.
Baumgartner and Connor have been dating for about two years, first fueling romance rumors when they were spotted on a romantic vacation in July 2023. But it wasn't until six months later that a friend of the handbag designer officially confirmed the two were a couple.
Now, People reports the duo are ready to take their relationship to the next level, with a source telling the outlet that Connor got down on one knee and proposed this past weekend.
It all allegedly went down on Sunday, Jan. 26, in Santa Barbara, California, after Connor, 49, convinced his now-fiancée that they were going out to enjoy a dinner for two, but ultimately surprised Baumgartner with an intimate walk on the beach, where he proposed.
"It was about to rain, so almost no one else was on the beach when Josh got down on one knee," the source shared with the outlet.
The milestone moment apparently wasn't a surprise for anyone but maybe Baumgartner, as the couple apparently couldn't be any happier together.
"They spent Christmas in New York together last month, where it all began. They are both over the moon and excited for their future together," the source added.
While there's no word on wedding planning just yet, the two sound like they're just enjoying the new phase of their relationship–as they should!
Baumgartner was previously married to the Yellowstone actor for 18 years before they split in May 2023. The two publicly feuded for months, right up until they settled their divorce in September 2023. The former couple shares three kids: sons Cayden Wyatt, 17, and Hayes Logan, 15, and daughter Grace Avery, 14.
