Just a little over a year after she finalized her divorce, Christine Baumgartner, the renowned socialite and former spouse of acclaimed actor Kevin Costner, is reportedly set to walk down the aisle again, this time with her boyfriend, affluent financier Josh Connor.

Baumgartner was recently spotted dining with Connor in the picturesque Montecito community over the Memorial Day weekend. The lovebirds were accompanied by Baumgartner’s children, who had recently joined their father, Costner, at the Cannes Film Festival for the premiere of his latest project, Horizon: An American Saga.

Baumgartner and Connor are eager to take their relationship to the next level and are actively planning their upcoming nuptials. The financier is believed to have already shared his marriage plans for Baumgartner with his associates, although the couple still needs to reveal a specific date for the ceremony.

Despite the duo being romantically linked even before Baumgartner’s divorce from Costner was finalized, the socialite has vehemently denied that she dated Connor in that period. Connor rented a house on Costner’s property for years.

Nonetheless, their blossoming relationship has now come to the forefront, with Connor reportedly determined to provide Baumgartner with the support and care her previous marriage lacked.

Baumgartner and Costner share three children: Cayden, 17, Hayes, 15, and Grace, 13. Connor, on the other hand, has three children from his previous relationship: Lily, 20, John, 18, and Abigail, 13. Over the Memorial Day weekend, the majority of the blended family was spotted gathering at the renowned Coral Casino Beach and Cabana Club, as the lovebirds appear to be making concerted efforts to foster a strong bond between their respective children.

While Baumgartner is entirely focused on her relationship with Connor, she has expressed genuine happiness for her ex-husband’s professional success, particularly with the premiere of his film Horizon: An American Saga. Costner, who was accompanied by five of his seven children for the event, has been deeply immersed in the commitments surrounding his Western film franchise, even as he navigated the challenges of his recent divorce proceedings.
