Kevin Costner actually met Christine Baumgartner when he was married to his first wife, Cindy Silva Costner. They met on the set of the 1996 golf movie "Tin Cup," according to People, but didn't reconnect until years later. After Costner and his first wife divorced, he began a relationship with Bridget Rooney, who is the niece of Dan Rooney, a one-time owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers. They welcomed a child, Liam, in 1996.

In 1998, Costner ran into Baumgartner at a restaurant and they hit it off. "We exchanged numbers, and I told her that I would — did she mind if I called her in two weeks. I did not realize that was like an insult to a woman," he told People. Costner and Baumgartner almost didn't make it. He was already a father to three children — Annie, Lily, and Joe — by his first marriage, and had Liam by his previous relationship, and felt he didn't want any more kids. For Baumgartner, this was a deal-breaker. "She said, 'I'm going to wait for you, but not long. When you come to your senses, come back to me,'" Costner told Parade. He quickly came to his senses and the two married in 2004, despite their 19-year age gap.
