Exploring Premarital Agreements in a High-Profile Divorce: The Kevin Costner Case | Episode 168

Dare we say it? Kevin Costner’s divorce case with its contested premarital agreement, is one for the books – one that might rival any of his Hollywood screenplays. A prenup stating a $1.5 million payout to Christine Baumgartner upon divorce, child support complexities, parenting time issues – can this be contested considering his net worth is considerably more this many years after the agreement was drafted? 

In this episode, Ryan and Amy dissect the known details about his premarital agreement, discuss its enforceability, and delve into the attorneys’ strategies as they move forward in this divorce case.  They also discuss the general unenforceability of certain clauses in premarital agreements. They also contrast Colorado’s lack of case law on premarital agreements with other states, like California and New York.
