Who Saw This Coming? Kevin Costner Is Reportedly Dating Jewel

Kevin Costner has been in the news a lot this past year, thanks in large part to his messy divorce from Christine Baumgartner, who he had been married to since 2004.

The former couple, who share three kids together, finally settled their divorce in September, but Costner had to pay his ex-wife a lot of money. He’s giving her over a million per year.

But he’s not letting it get him down. Instead, the 68-year-old ‘Yellowstone‘ actor is flying to private islands and sparking a romance with 49-year-old singer/songwriter, Jewel.

The two stars were in the British Virgin Islands for over a week, spending some time at Richard Branson’s Necker Island. Sources say they were spotted being very flirty with each other. TMZ even got this photo of Costner wrapping his arms around Jewel’s waist.

A source told TMZ the following:

There was definitely something going on. They were flirty. And when they were together, it was like they both just lit up. You could tell they were trying to be discreet, but anybody who saw them could tell something was going on.

Insiders say they flew back to the states on the same plane, so there was more bonding going on there.

Jewel has been trying to find love again after divorcing pro cowboy Ty Murray back in 2014.

We’ll see if this new romance is just a fling, or perhaps the real thing?
