BUZZ: Moving trucks spotted at Kevin Costner’s mansion as estranged wife’s eviction date looms

BUZZ: Moving trucks spotted at Kevin Costner’s mansion as estranged wife’s eviction date looms

Moving vans were spotted at Kevin Costner’s mansion just three days before his estranged wife, Christine Baumgartner, is supposed to be out.

In photos obtained Friday by Page Six, several large U-Hauls and a pickup truck could be seen parked outside the former couple’s marital home in Santa Barbara, Calif.

Piles of cardboard boxes — likely filled with Baumgartner’s belongings — surrounded the vehicles.

However, the vans ended up at Costner’s beachfront compound about a half mile away, so perhaps that’s where she’ll be staying.

Page Six has reached out for comment.

Though it’s unclear whether Baumgartner was present for any packing or heavy lifting, her estranged husband is likely still vacationing in Aspen, Colo., with their three children: son Cayden, 16, son Hayes, 14, and daughter Grace, 13.

Earlier this month, a judge ordered Baumgartner to vacate the family abode by July 31.

The judge later ruled that the handbag designer needed Costner’s consent to remove any items — aside from her personal belongings — from the premises.

The “Yellowstone” star, 68, had told the court he was afraid that Baumgartner, 49, was going to rob him blind.

Costner claimed the former model had “shown a disturbing propensity in the last several months, both before and after separation, to take [his] property without his knowledge or consent, especially since this case was filed.”

He also accused her of paying her divorce attorney using “the credit card of an employee, which is traditionally used for Costner family house charges and paid by [him].”

Baumgartner, for her part, insisted that she did not “strip the house” bare and claimed she provided the actor’s lawyer with “pictures of the items” she planned to remove.

The blond beauty added that she had rented an off-site storage unit in preparation for her move and had already transported her Peloton bike, family heirlooms, clothing and keepsakes from friends.

She also took silverware, pots, pans and some swivel chairs, and is requesting a “mother/daughter horse picture” from the exes’ Aspen estate.

Baumgartner filed for divorce from the Oscar winner in May after almost 19 years of marriage, citing “irreconcilable differences.”

Since then, the two — who said “I do” in September 2004 — have been engaged in a messy legal battle over the terms of their prenup, specifically those pertaining to their marital home.

Though Costner got his wish with regard to the house, he was recently ordered to pay Baumgartner nearly $130,000 per month in child support — two and a half times his proposed amount.
