Costner spent the last year focused on his passion project, “Horizon,” and raising his children. The “Field of Dreams” star shares three children with ex-wife Christine Baumgartner. Costner also shares three adult children with ex-wife Cindy Silva and a son with Bridget Rooney. The actor’s children are the “anchor” of his life.

“They know that I have this chosen work, but, honestly, I’m really clear about where my responsibility absolutely lies at the end of the day,” he told People magazine.

“They’re like shooting stars,” Costner added. “My life is driving up and down the freeway just trying to get the children where they think they need to be … but that’s part of the job.”

“I was chasing the cowboy life just about as soon as I could walk, and here I am doing it still.”

Baumgartner filed for divorce in May 2023. The two went through a bitter court battle over custody of their children, with Costner coming out on top. Baumgartner and the actor finalized their divorce in February 2024.

Before the former couple signed a settlement agreement, Costner told Fox News Digital there are no winners in their divorce battle.

“You know, when you have a life that long with somebody, there is no winner … and it’s this big, crazy thing called life and how it unravels so quickly,” he said. “One minute you feel like you’re on top of the world, and then you realize how … vulnerable you are.”
