It’s a trying time for "Yellowstone" fans, as the hugely popular Paramount Network neo-western was confirmed to be coming to its conclusion far sooner than originally anticipated, allegedly due to Kevin Costner’s scheduling conflicts and other rumored behind-the-scenes issues. It’s obviously a far tougher time for the star himself, as he was reportedly blindsided by wife Christine Baumgartner filing for divorce, all while he’s in the midst of early production on the second feature in his planned quartet of "Horizon" westerns. As facts continue to be sussed out, a report has resurfaced from late in 2022 alleging that Baumgartner gave the Emmy-winning actor the choice to either say goodbye to John Dutton or say goodbye to their relationship.br br Considering Christine Baumgartner hasn’t gone public with a list of reasons why she filed for divorce from her hubby of nearly two decades, it’s still technically not 100 clear how likely those rumors were to be authentic, though the way things played out over the past couple of months potentially rules out that rumor being pure coincidence. There obviously have been reports about Costner and co-creator Taylor Sheridan butting heads over scheduling, with the actor allegedly arguing for shorter filming windows, those reports have largely been tethered to his Horizon films, and not his family or home life.
