morphine.
The health issue can be caused by chronic stress, and Closerâs source reveals that Kevin is currently âunder extreme pressure.â
According to the insider, âItâs no coincidence heâs talking about his kidney stones hell from a few years ago. Aside from that, he was a generally healthy guy, but heâs not young anymore.â
Kevinâs four-part epic Western film, produced by, directed by and starring the Oscar winner, premiered at the 77th Cannes Film Festival on May 19 (Chapter 2 will arrive in August while the third and fourth parts have yet to set release dates). However, critics mostly panned the film ahead of its wide release on June 28.
Given Horizonâs poor reception from critics, Kevin âis poised to lose millions,â the source reveals, âand worst-case scenario he could potentially lose his house.â
The Dances With Wolves actor has had a tough year. He got divorced from his wife, Christine Baumgartner, 50, fought publicly with the Yellowstone bosses and had to make the Horizon films with his own money. So when the first part of his American Saga bombed at Cannes, it was a mighty blow to his ego.
âHeâs gone through so much stuff,â says the source. âHe takes it personally, and these bad reviews sting, though he puts a brave face on. He must pick himself off the floor and reinvent himself while still shelling out money to his ex-wife, [Christine], but the truth is heâs not as tough as he seems to be.â
Kevinâs budding romance with singer Jewel, 50, also has reached a dead end, and the source says heâs âextremely vulnerableâ right now. Heâs ânot well-suited to being single,â the insider continues, âno matter what he says.â
And even though Kevin is the recipient of two Academy Awards, three Golden Globe Awards and a Primetime Emmy Award, the extreme criticism from Hollywood regarding his recent film endeavor has him down in the dumps.
âAll this stress is affecting him and could wreak havoc on him in a physical way,â Closerâs source warns. âHis friends are worried about him and fearing it could all lead to another kidney stone disaster or worse.â
Earlier this month, a separate source revealed to Closer that Kevin is in âa world of pain.â
âHeâs not sleeping well. Heâs in crisis meetings over his projects. He canât seem to get a hit movie, he canât keep a girlfriend â and his ex seems happier than ever!â the source said. âEverything is caving in on him now. Itâs only a matter of time before he crumbles!â
