Talk about a huge amount of money! Christine Baumgartner, Kevin Costner’s estranged wife, claims the actor’s net worth doubled to $400 million during their marriage.
According to a source, the handbag designer claims in legal documents that when they signed their prenup in 2004, the “Bodyguard” actor stated that he had $102,716,000 in assets.

Now, as the couple is going through a divorce Baumgartner claims Coster is worth close to $400 million — with roughly $24 million in cash.
TSZ Newz acquired a court file in which the mother of three accused the Oscar winner of “withholding” evidence of his finances.
Baumgartner’s counsel has requested that Costner produce documents about his business ventures.
The “Yellowstone” actor, according to the lawyer, has been “stonewalling” by withholding facts ahead of their scheduled child support hearing next week.
Furthermore, in new court documents, Costner stated that he did not have an affair but “does not know for a fact” whether his separated wife did.
He responded after Baumgartner’s legal counsel requested financial proof, including “expenses paid by you, or any person at your request or on your behalf, relating to any extramarital romantic relationships.”
The legal team for the father of seven opposed the requests, stating that they are “propounded only for purposes of harassment, is overbroad as to period and subject matter, burdensome, oppressive, and impermissibly compound.”
In court documents obtained by TSZ Newz, the lawyers argued that Costner “does not know for a fact if [Christine] engaged in any ‘extramarital romantic relationships’ before separation and, if so, whether she spent any of his money or charged any expenses in furtherance of her affair(s) on credit cards he paid.”
“[Kevin] has no responsive documents for ‘extramarital romantic relationships’ in which he has engaged because he has engaged in none.”
After 18 years of marriage, Baumgartner, 49, filed for divorce from Costner, 68, in May. The separated spouses have been embroiled in a heated divorce battle since then.
A judge ordered in July that the “Hidden Figures” star must pay his separated wife $129,755 per month in child support for their three children, despite her request for $248,000 per month.

In addition, he was assigned to pay $200,000 in attorney’s fees and $100,000 in forensic charges.
The judge also decided that the ex-couple had to follow through on their prenup, which obliged Baumgartner to vacate their shared family home by July 31.
