Christine Baumgartner Marries Family Friend Joshua Connor in Intimate Santa Barbara Ceremony

SANTA BARBARA, CA – Christine Baumgartner, who recently finalized her divorce from actor Kevin Costner, has tied the knot with family friend Joshua Connor. The couple exchanged vows on Saturday at the picturesque Santa Ynez Ranch, a private vineyard located in Santa Barbara, California.

The outdoor ceremony, attended by approximately 100 close family members and friends, including their children, was described by guests as “magical” and “authentic.” Baumgartner shares three children with Costner, while Connor also has three children from a previous marriage.

“It was magical – truly,” a guest shared with People magazine. “The setting was gorgeous, but what made it special was the intimacy of it all.

This wasn’t a big production. It was authentic, heartfelt, and so very them.

Everyone there felt like they were witnessing something really precious.”

Another attendee noted the joyous atmosphere, stating, “The joy and laughter were infectious, from the welcome celebration Friday night to the last dance Saturday evening. Christine and Josh were glowing. And there wasn’t a dry eye in the crowd during the ceremony.”

Romance rumors between Baumgartner and Connor first surfaced in July 2023 when they were photographed together on vacation in Hawaii. Their relationship was later confirmed in Santa Barbara after Baumgartner’s divorce from Costner was finalized in February 2024.

Baumgartner filed for divorce from Costner on May 1, 2023, citing irreconcilable differences. The former couple, who were married for almost 19 years, eventually reached an agreement on joint legal and physical custody of their children.
