Christine Baumgartner, who finalized her divorce from ex-husband Kevin Costner in February 2024, has married family friend Joshua Connor.
The couple, who got engaged in January, tied the knot on Saturday at the Santa Ynez Ranch, a private vineyard in Santa Barbara, Calif., according to People magazine.
The outdoor ceremony was attended by 100 of their closest family and friends, including their children. Baumgartner shares three children with Costner, while Connor shares three children with his ex-wife.
“It was magical – truly,” a guest told People. “The setting was gorgeous, but what made it special was the intimacy of it all. This wasn’t a big production. It was authentic, heartfelt, and so very them. Everyone there felt like they were witnessing something really precious.”

“The joy and laughter were infectious, from the welcome celebration Friday night to the last dance Saturday evening,” another guest said. “Christine and Josh were glowing. And there wasn’t a dry eye in the crowd during the ceremony.”
Romance rumors between Baumgartner and Connor sparked in July 2023 when the couple was spotted on vacation in Hawaii.
Nearly one year later, the pair confirmed their relationship while walking hand-in-hand together in Santa Barbara, Calif., shortly after she finalized her divorce with Costner.
