Christine Baumgartner Marries Josh Connor in Santa Barbara After Costner Divorce

Christine Baumgartner married financier Josh Connor on October 18, 2025, at an intimate outdoor ceremony held at the Santa Ynez Ranch in Santa Barbara, California, attended by just over 100 family and friends including their children. The wedding followed Baumgartner's divorce from actor Kevin Costner, finalized in 2024 after nearly 18 years of marriage, with whom she shares three teenage children. Baumgartner wore a custom Mira Zwillinger gown with hand-embroidered flowers and changed into a white satin Lihi Hod dress for the reception, while Connor donned a classic black tuxedo. Baumgartner and Connor's relationship, which began as a friendship and turned romantic in early 2024, was publicly confirmed after a beachside engagement in January 2025. The couple emphasized a family-focused, authentic celebration and are excited to build a joy-filled life together. Throughout the divorce proceedings, Costner questioned Baumgartner's fidelity, though the parties ultimately reached an amicable resolution regarding child custody and support, maintaining a cooperative co-parenting relationship.
