Kevin Costner's ex-wife has outline what she is expecting in terms of child support and it's chunky.
It was revealed back in May that the Yellowstone star and his wife of 18 years, Christine Baumgartner, were splitting up.
They have three teenage children together, Cayden, 15, Hayes, 14, and 12-year-old Grace.
A representative for Costner said the divorce was due to 'circumstances beyond his control'.

But now the knives are out and the two are battling over how much financial support she's entitled to.
She knocked back a suggestion of $52,000 per month because it was reportedly 'completely inappropriate' and initially requested nearly $250,000 every month.
A new request has been made and it's a little more than $175,000 per month, according to court documents obtained by PEOPLE and Us Weekly.

That's a $46,000 jump from the $129,000 that she is currently getting.
Her legal team has come up with that figure so that the children can continue to live the same type of life with her as they would with their dad.
Baumgartner's team said in their brief: “The Court is required to set child support at a level that, when the children are with Christine, they live a lifestyle relatively comparable to the one they enjoy when they are with their father.
“The Court order must allow the children to be supported at a level commensurate with Kevin’s considerable wealth, even if that level of support also improves the standard of living of Christine.”

That means Cayden, Hayes and Grace should be allowed to live in a comparable house with Christine that is commensurate with Kevin's.
It also includes the type of travel they might enjoy with the TV star.
“Because the children fly on private aircraft to go on luxury vacations when they are with their father, the Family Code dictates that Kevin should pay sufficient child support to Christine so that the children can go on comparable vacations when they are with her," the brief states.

"This is true even if the child support payments also improve Christine’s lifestyle.
“In this case, the guideline child support requested by Christine of $175,057 per month will not be sufficient to replicate Kevin’s lifestyle, but it will be sufficient to allow her to provide a lifestyle for the children which is relatively comparable.”
The two will have a court hearing today (August 31) to hash out their divorce proceedings.
