Kevin Costner, 71, is ‘being cautious’ in his romance with new girlfriend, 46, after bitter Christine Baumgartner divorce

by

Kevin Costner began dating Kelly Noonan Gores in August, shortly after his divorce from Christine Baumgartner was finalized earlier in 2024.

Following his recent, very public breakup, the 71-year-old actor is taking things slowly in his new relationship, a source told Us Weekly.

Sources say 46-year-old Gores has been a stabilizing influence for the former Yellowstone actor, who was recently seen in Aspen with his daughter.

As a lifestyle expert, I’m hearing that these two are making it work despite busy schedules! Apparently, they connect whenever they can, and a lot of their time together is spent at his beautiful estate in Santa Barbara. It sounds like a really relaxed and private way to nurture their connection.

It was also shared that they ‘love dinners at home, walks on the beach and quiet nights in.’

A source close to the filmmaker said he isn’t currently seeking a committed relationship or marriage, and that the connection is relaxed and kept out of the public eye.

Jamie Gores was married to Alec Gores, a billionaire, for eight years, from 2016 until 2024. They have a six-year-old daughter named Riley Grace.

Costner and Baumgartner separated in April 2023 and filed for divorce the following month.

After tying the knot in 2004 they welcomedĀ Cayden, 18, Hayes, 16, and Grace, 15.Ā 

The actor has five children: Annie, 41, Lily, 39, and Joe, 37, with his former wife Cindy Silva, and Liam, 30, with ex-girlfriend Bridget Rooney.

After Baumgartner ended her marriage with Kevin Costner, she began dating his former friend, Josh Oā€™Connor. According to Us Weekly, Costner is still upset about it.

According to a source, he’s still a little hurt that their relationship didn’t last and it bothers him that she’s now married to someone else, but he’s trying to move on.

According to a source, Kevin is dating and doing well after going through a difficult period.

He’s been dating Kelly. They spent time together in Aspen in late July, but he’s been trying to keep the relationship quiet, hoping to avoid any unwanted attention or complications.

According to a source, she’s everything he looks for in a partner, and they share many interests, like enjoying the outdoors, playing sports, surfing, and taking long walks with their dogs.

She has young children, and he really enjoys being around kids, which he finds endearing. He also describes her as easygoing, and says that’s exactly what he’s looking for right now.

According to a source at Us Weekly, Kevin is currently exploring his options and enjoying the process of deciding what to do next with his career.

According to a source close to him, Kevin Costner believes 2026 will be a turning point in his career. While he’s always been a risk-taker, recent ventures haven’t been successful.

After his recent film, Horizon, didn’t do well, Costner has been focusing on promoting his next project, a Civil War-era spy thriller called The Gray House.

He produced the eight-part series, to be released on February 26, with Morgan Freeman.

The show centers on unsung women in Confederate territory who establish an underground spy network.Ā 

Kevin Costner’s 2024 film, Horizon: An American Saga, didn’t perform well in theaters, and plans for the originally intended four-movie series are now on hold.

He was understandably upset that ‘Horizon’ didn’t perform as well as he’d hoped, especially since he dedicated so much effort to it,” a source told Us Weekly. The source also said Costner hasnā€™t abandoned the project and is still committed to it.
