It’s been an eventful year for 68-year-old Kevin Costner, marked by his exit from the show Yellowstone, the announcement and subsequent finalization of his divorce from handbag designer Christine Baumgartner in May and September, respectively. The challenges of divorce often necessitate a break from the public eye, and Costner seemed to have sought some space away from the spotlight in recent months.
However, any respite he may have enjoyed seems to be drawing to a close as new rumors swirl about a potential romantic involvement between Costner and country singer Jewel. The speculation arises after images emerged of them getting cozy during a Caribbean trip, sparking intense curiosity among fans and the public.
Costner’s departure from Yellowstone was partially due to his commitment to a passion project, Horizon, a series of westerns that he stars in and directs. This extensive project has kept him occupied and relatively low-profile.
The rumors gained traction when Jewel shared an innocuous image from her Caribbean vacation, where Costner also appeared in the background. Subsequently, more photos surfaced, including one from TMZ showing the duo seemingly enjoying each other’s company. In this particular image, Jewel appears seated on Costner’s lap, igniting speculation about their relationship status, especially given their body language.
While neither Jewel nor Costner has confirmed the nature of their relationship, TMZ cites various sources claiming confirmation of their romantic involvement. Witnesses from the trip noted that although they were discreet, their evident enjoyment in each other’s company was noticeable, indicating a budding relationship. However, until an official confirmation comes from either party involved, the situation remains speculative.
The public’s curiosity remains high, hoping for further clarification about the nature of their relationship. Until then, it’s important to treat these rumors with caution, recognizing that despite the cozy appearance in the Caribbean, the actual status of the relationship between Jewel and Costner remains unconfirmed speculation.
