Kevin Costner has reportedly started dating someone new.
The “Yellowstone” star, 70, is said to be “casually” seeing director and author Kelly Noonan Gores, 46, following his nasty split from ex-wife Christine Baumgartner, according to Us Weekly.
“They are hanging out casually and were connected by friends,” an insider told the outlet of Costner and Noonan Gores, who recently announced her divorce from billionaire businessman Alec Gores.
“They both frequent Aspen often and have mutual friend groups,” the source added. “They have been getting to know each other and seeing each other casually when they can.”
Insiders also claimed that even though the rumored couple recently “spent time” together in Colorado, their relationship is “not serious” yet because Costner resides in Carpinteria, Calif., and Noonan Gores lives almost 100 miles away in Manhattan Beach.
The Post has reached out to Costner’s rep for comment.
Costner and Noonan Gores’ rumored relationship comes on the heels of the “Horizon” star finalizing his bitter divorce from Baumgartner, 51, in February 2024.
The exes, who married in September 2004 and welcomed children Cayden, 18, Hayes, 16, and Grace, 15, during their marriage, split in May 2023 when Baumgartner filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences.
Following an ugly legal battle over child support and their prenup agreement, the pair settled last year.
Although Baumgartner sought $250,000 in monthly child support from Costner, she only received $63,000 per the terms of their settlement.
The “Man of Steel” star was romantically linked to singer Jewel shortly after his wife filed for divorce.
Those romance rumors started in December 2023 after Costner and the “Foolish Games” songwriter, 51, were spotted together at a charity event hosted by billionaire Richard Branson on his private Caribbean island.
However, Costner later denied he was dating Jewel during an interview on “The Howard Stern Show” in June 2024.
“Jewel and I are friends — we’ve never gone out,” he told the shock jock at the time. “Ever.”
“She’s special, and I don’t want these rumors to ruin our friendship because that’s what we have,” Costner added. “She’s special. I mean, she’s beautiful enough to go out with.”
Baumgartner, meanwhile, has also moved on. She is now engaged to Josh Connor, who was her and Costner’s neighbor when they were still married.
As for Noonan Gores, she revealed she was divorcing Alec Gores, 72, in December 2024. The former couple married in October 2016 and share a daughter named Riley, 6.
“It was excruciating,” the former actress said during an episode of her “Heal with Kelly” podcast earlier this year. “Even though I initiated the conversation, neither of us wanted this, and it was extremely heartbreaking.”
“This is not for a lack of love,” she added regarding their split. “I love this man deeply and madly and tremendously and have so much respect for him. He truly was my best friend.”
