Kevin Costner got real about his super messy divorce from Christine Baumgartner … describing the ordeal with some pretty heart-wrenching words.
When Gayle King asked Kevin on “CBS Mornings” Thursday how he was holding up head-wise and heart-wise post-divorce, he didn’t mince words: “That’s a crushing moment. It’s powerful, it hurt.”

Kevin added he had no choice but to move forward and couldn’t wilt like a daisy — especially ’cause he had to keep a special eye on his kids who were looking up to him.
You’ll recall … Christine and Kevin finalized their divorce in Feb, wrapping up one of Hollywood’s messiest splits. While the settlement details stayed under wraps, we do know a judge upheld their contentious prenup.

The exes asked for joint custody of their 3 kids — and, a court ruled Baumgartner should receive a hefty $63k in child support from the former “Yellowstone” actor.
