Months after his painful separation from his longtime wife Christine Baumgartner, Kevin Costner seems to have found love once more. The Yellowstone star has entered a relationship with singer Jewel, as the two were spotted together on Richard Branson’s Necker Island. The couple attended a tennis fundraiser for the Inspiring Children Foundation. TMZ reports that they spent over a week together in the Caribbean. This comes after a tumultuous court battle between Costner and Baumgartner following their divorce.

In May of this year, Kevin Costner was blindsided by his wife’s decision to start divorce proceedings, citing “irreconcilable differences”. The couple had been married for 18 years. Costner’s representative released a statement expressing sadness and asking for privacy during this difficult time for both Kevin, Christine, and their children.

The couple has three children together, Cayden (15), Hayes (14), and Grace (12). The aftermath of the divorce filing involved a bitter feud that led to Christine being forced out of the family home, as stated in their prenuptial agreement. Costner also had to pay $63,209 per month in child support.

While the road has been filled with heartbreak, uncertainty, and stress for Costner, there seems to be light at the end of the tunnel. Costner has reportedly started a romance with American singer Jewel. Witnesses on their trip to the Caribbean noticed their chemistry, describing them as “flirty” and “lit up” whenever they were together. Despite their efforts to be discreet, it was clear to those who saw them that something was going on.

Jewel also mentioned Costner on social media, thanking him for his mentoring at the tennis fundraiser on Necker Island. TMZ reports that Jewel and Costner flew back together, with a source saying that Jewel is “picky” and believes that Kevin is a good man.
