Kevin Costner and Christine Baumgartner battled it out in court Thursday as the purse designer argues that the 'Yellowstone' star's monthly child support payment amounts be increased.
"It's a sign of respect to the court, he's actively engaged and listening and passing notes to his counsel," Melcher told Fox News Digital."And it's got to be really embarrassing for both spouses to face each other in a courtroom and seeing their lives exposed, their children's needs being talked about, all the attorney's fees that are being spent. This seems really uncomfortable for Kevin right now.
Melcher noted the court case has gotten"nasty" and that there are ways to say things in a"much more respectful way."Video In opening statements Thursday, Baumgartner's lawyer, John Rydell, noted that she is asking for $161,592 in monthly child support and that Costner is a major movie star who can afford to pay. Rydell estimated that even if Costner were to start paying the increased amount, the"Yellowstone" star would still make roughly $731,000 per month after taxes. Her legal team insisted that California law should be upheld.
"Christine's lack of intellectual integrity when it comes to defining 'reasonable needs' is breathtaking, as is her mind-boggling support demand of $168,315 per month as the children's ‘reasonable needs,’" the court docs state.
