First wife Cindy Silva

In November 1994, Costner's then-wife, Cindy Silva, filed for divorce after 16 years of marriage.

“We have amicably resolved all issues relating to our children and financial matters and a full marital settlement has been reached. We ask for the dignity to endure this more painful part of our lives privately,” the couple said in a statement in 1994.

Costner and Silva met when they were both students at California State University – Fullerton.

They would have three children together.

The couple split after multiple reports that Costner had had an affair with a celebrated hula dancer named Michele Amaral while he was filming his multimillion-dollar flop Waterworld in Hawaii.

Ultimately, Silva was awarded approximately $80 million in the divorce settlement.

In a 1995 interview, The Bodyguard star took responsibility for his role in the demise of his marriage, but did not go into details.

'A series of events threatened to happen at the same time. I know it hurt some people that I had failed in my marriage. And the marriage was my own failure,” he said.

Costner said in a 1995 interview with Parade Magazine that he never even spoke to Amaral on the phone.

He also mentioned the other women he was allegedly linked to, including Playboy model Angie Everheart and the daughter of casino magnate Steve Wynn.

'It was difficult for Cindy and our children. It didn't help anything. All it did was hurt. The collapse of my marriage was the hardest thing of all for me,” the Dances With Wolves star said.

Costner then expressed his love for his first wife: “You can put this on the record. Despite all the pain, Cindy is the woman I always thought was a real lady. I still have love for Cindy.”

Silva supported Costner when he was a struggling actor and took on odd jobs, including appearing as Snow White at Disneyland.

Short-lived affair Bridget Rooney

Shortly after his divorce from Silva, Costner had a son, Liam, with Pittsburgh Steelers heiress Bridget Rooney.

Less than two years after his divorce from Silva, Costner had a son, Liam, with Bridget Rooney.

She is an heiress to the Pittsburgh Steelers and the aunt of actresses Rooney and Kate Mara.

In 1996, Rooney insisted she was “110% sure who the father” of her child was.

But Rooney “still insisted on a paternity test” to prove paternity, according to a 2002 article by PEOPLE.

Rumor has it that that months-long affair cost the actor $7 million.

Liam is now 27 years old.

'Mistress' Michele Amaral

In 1994, it was widely reported that Kevin Costner had had an affair with hula dancer Michele Amaral during the filming of Waterworld.

Costner is said to have had an affair with a celebrated hula dancer named Michele Amaral while he was filming his multimillion-dollar flop Waterworld in Hawaii.

Amaral was also married and the mother of two children when she met Costner.

A report at the time in the New York Daily News said the couple met at the Mauna Lani hotel and shortly after, Amaral was “spotted sneaking out of his $4,500-a-day villa.”

According to an article in Departures magazine, Amaral has taught hula all over the world and is known as the island's leading soloist.

According to the Daily News report, Silva was informed of the affair by someone working on Waterworld and was fired.

In the same article, Costner was accused of multiple infidelities during his marriage.

Costner strongly denied the allegations at the time, saying he was only interviewing Amaral for a job.

During an interview bringing up Amaral, Costner became irate.

“This woman did nothing wrong and yet she had to share the harsh light of celebrity with me. I'm ashamed, and I don't think there's anything I can do to make her life better.”

“This woman has a name and to make something of her is the worst thing of all. It's wrong for her and her husband,” Costner said.

Second wife Christine Baumgartner

Costner and second wife Baumgartner first started dating in 1998, after meeting around 1996 while Costner was filming his movie Tin Cup. They married in 2004; seen in 2022

Costner and second wife Baumgartner first started dating in 1998, after meeting around 1996 while Costner was filming his movie Tin Cup.

The Bodyguard star said that when he first met her, he wasn't ready to fall in love again.

Both graduated from California State University – Fullerton. Baumgartner graduated with a degree in business administration.

They married in 2004 in Aspen, Colorado, where Costner has long maintained a 160-acre ranch known as The Dunbar. Rooms can be rented on site for as much as $36,000 per night.

The reason for the long courtship was that Costner wasn't sure if he wanted more children. The uncertainty even led to their separation a period before their engagement.

'Fear kept me from marrying Christine. [She] wanted to have a child, but I was afraid I wouldn't be an effective father.'

“I woke up and thought, am I going to lose a beautiful woman who is willing to be with me until my very last breath because I'm afraid to say yes to a child?” That's all it took. Sometimes you learn that the thing you fear most will save your life,” he told Closer Weekly in 2018.

Costner told the Daily Telegraph in 2011 that the reason for his four-year hiatus from filmmaking was due to his new family.

Recently in 2020, Costner spoke glowingly about how the couple's relationship grew stronger during the Covid-19 pandemic. He told People: “Our partnership has really become clear about what we do for each other and how we interact with our family.”

In 2022, Radar Online reported that Costner was given an ultimatum by his wife. The report stated that she demanded he quit his hit show Yellowstone due to being away from home so much.

'The show is such a mega hit, producers want it to go on forever! [Baumgartner] wants a permanent commitment, this is his last season – or maybe he should!,” a source told the website.

And on Tuesday, May 2, it was announced that Baumgartner had filed for divorce after 18 years of marriage.

A representative for the Yellowstone star asked for privacy while saying that “circumstances beyond his control occurred which resulted in Mr. Costner having to participate in a dissolution of marriage” with Baumgartner.

The couple have three children, 12, 14 and 15, and both have filed for joint custody.

The family's main residence was in Ventura, California, 30 miles south of Santa Barbara, where they also own an oceanfront mansion.

The couple settled with a prenuptial agreement that was enforced in September 2023.
