Kevin Costner, the 68-year-old star of Yellowstone, was caught in a classic dad moment at the Eras Tour concert. He was seen getting into the music, particularly one of Taylor Swift's well-known breakup songs. Costner attended the concert with his 13-year-old daughter, Grace, and both of them looked stylish for the occasion. Costner sported a white collared shirt and slacks, while Grace wore a fashionable white mini dress with a ruffled skirt.
The couple, who enjoyed the show from a private suite at SoFi Stadium, were spotted dancing, smiling, and singing along to some of Swift's popular songs. Among them was her hit single "We Are Never, Ever, Getting Back Together" from the 2012 album Red.

Amid Costner’s turbulent split from his estranged wife Christine Baumgartner, he recently had a daddy-daughter night out. In May, Baumgartner, who is 49 years old, filed for divorce from Costner after being married for 19 years, citing irreconcilable differences as the reason for their separation.
Following their separation, Costner and Baumgartner have been involved in a messy legal dispute over financial matters and child support. In addition to their daughter Grace, who was present during their recent outing, they also have two other children named Cayden, aged 16, and Hayes, aged 14. It is worth noting that Costner has children from previous relationships as well, including daughters Annie, aged 39, and Lily, aged 36, and son Joe, aged 35, with ex-wife Cindy Silva, and son Liam, aged 26, with Bridget Rooney.

In June, Baumgartner accused Costner of trying to evict her from their family home, stating that she lacked the financial means to relocate with their children. Additionally, she requested $248,000 per month in child support from her estranged spouse to maintain the children's current standard of living.
Costner, on the other hand, contended that he could not afford the specified amount due to anticipated decreased earnings in 2023 after the conclusion of Yellowstone. He further claimed that a significant portion of Baumgartner's expenses were for her personal benefit rather than the children's.
“According to obtained documents, Christine assigns 60 percent of expenses, such as personal trainer fees, unspecified credit card expenses, and her own plastic surgery costs, to the minor children without providing any explanation or justification.” Following their separation, the couple also disputed over the division of household items, including pots and pans, dining chairs, silverware, bedding, and the kitchen table, that Baumgartner would take when she moved out.
After a prolonged period of negotiations, a judge ultimately ruled that Costner is required to pay Baumgartner a monthly child support amount of $129,755 and that Baumgartner must vacate Costner’s residence by the end of July. Just a few days later, a U-Haul truck was spotted outside the former couple's residence in Santa Barbara County.
