Months after his devastating separation from his longtime wife Christine Baumgartner, Kevin Costner has managed to find love once more. The 67-year-old Yellowstone star has been romantically linked to singer Jewel after the pair was spotted together on Richard Branson’s Necker Island.
According to TMZ, Costner and Jewel spent over a week on the Caribbean island, enjoying each other’s company. This newfound romance comes after Costner endured a painful court battle with Baumgartner, which followed her unexpected decision to file for divorce in May of this year. The couple had been married for 18 years.
In the midst of the drama, Costner’s representative released a statement, urging the public to respect the privacy of Costner, Baumgartner, and their three children: sons Cayden, 15, and Hayes, 14, and daughter Grace, 12.
While the whole experience undoubtedly took an emotional toll on Costner, there is a silver lining. Sources reveal that the actor is now involved in a relationship with Jewel. Witnesses on Necker Island observed their flirty behavior and how they seemed to light up whenever they were together.
Jewel herself made a mention of Costner on social media, showing their connection and her appreciation for his mentorship. The couple returned together from their trip, indicating a growing bond between them. Sources close to Jewel even describe her as being “picky” and assert that Costner is the kind of man she’s been searching for.
Kevin Costner’s journey has been a challenging one, filled with heartbreak and stress. Yet, with Jewel by his side, there is hope for a brighter future.
