In 2004, Christine and Kevin Costner tied the knot. In the following years, they welcomed three children, Cayden Wyatt, 15, Hayes Logan, 14, and Grace Avery, 12.

On Monday, it was reported that Christine, 49, has filed for divorce from Kevin. She cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split. The filing states that she’s seeking joint custody of their children.

On Tuesday, Kevin filed his own papers, asking for joint custody. Even though Christine did not ask for spousal support in her filing, Kevin’s attorney revealed that she will be getting spousal support payments under the agreements outlined in their prenup.

“It is with great sadness that circumstances beyond his control have transpired which have resulted in Mr. Costner having to participate in a dissolution of marriage action,” Costner’s representative told TMZ. “We ask that his, Christine’s, and their children’s privacy be respected as they navigate this difficult time.”
