It looks like Kevin Costner has found himself a new woman to dote on. After his 19-year-long marriage to Christine Baumgartner came to an end in 2023, the Yellowstone actor has been linked to a couple of women, but insiders are claiming that he has supposedly found something real this time.

According to a report by Radar Online, the new woman in Costner’s life is none other than Mad Men actress January Jones. Back in December 2024, Jones posted a series of photos to Instagram, one of which was with Costner. She captioned the post, “Beautiful evening once again with the incredibly warm @brunellocucinelli_brand family. And I finally got to meet @kevincostner.”

As per the sources, this is where they first sparked a connection. An insider stated, “Kevin and January have struck up a connection. They share a lot in common, and there’s a clear mutual attraction. January fits Kevin’s type perfectly, and she’s made it clear she admires his work.”

While no labels have been put down yet, those close to Costner are apparently hoping that this “turns into something serious.” There is a 23-year age gap between the two.

Before Jones came along, Costner was linked to a couple of names, one of them being Jennifer Lopez. After her split with Ben Affleck, a romantic relationship between her and Costner was widely speculated as the two were seen hanging out at Kemo Sabe in Aspen.

While neither Costner nor Lopez confirmed the rumors, it was reported that he pulled off a classic romantic gesture by having flowers and champagne delivered to her, along with a handwritten note.

A source told Closer Online UK (via She Knows),

At the moment things are still at the very beginning stages, but after they hung out in Aspen he made sure to send her a huge bouquet of her favourite flowers with a little handwritten note along with a magnum of champagne.

The source also added that since then, the two had been talking almost every day, and even planned on getting dinner together in a few days. However, if the report about Jones it looks like the Costner and Lopez chapter has ended for good.

Before Jones, Costner was also linked to folk singer Jewel, and the romantic nature of their relationship was all but confirmed when photos of her sitting in his lap made their way to the Internet. However, the actor clarified on The Howard Stern Show that they were just friends and that he didn’t want the rumors to ruin their friendship.

Now, sources close to the actor are saying that Costner “hasn’t been this enthusiastic about someone since Jewel. Although that didn’t work out, it was a positive experience.”

As for Jones, she is a single mother who has a lot on her plate, and she is apparently in no mood to rush things with Costner. The insider claims that Jones isn’t “the one chasing Kevin. She prefers to be pursued, which could be why things are moving slowly.”

While Costner is apparently texting her a lot lately, he is “building up the courage to ask her to become an item,” and may even be feeling a bit intimidated. Do you think Costner and Jones have what it takes to be Tinseltown’s next power couple, or will this fizzle out like the rest?
