New Romance? Kevin Costner Casually Dating Billionaire’s Ex-Wife Kelley Noonan

Kevin Costner, the legendary Yellowstone star, may be stepping into a new chapter of his personal life.
Nearly two years after finalizing a highly publicized divorce, Costner is reportedly “casually” dating Kelley Noonan—the ex-wife of billionaire businessman Alec Gores.
Sources say the two were introduced by mutual friends and have been spending time together, sparking rumors of a budding romance.

“They’re hanging out casually and were connected through friends,” one insider revealed.
While their relationship isn’t serious at this point, Costner and Noonan have recently spent time together in Aspen, Colorado—a favorite getaway for both.

“Kevin and Kelley both frequent Aspen and share mutual friend groups,” the source added.
“They’re getting to know each other and see each other when their schedules allow.”

Early Days: Long-Distance and Low-Key

Distance appears to be a factor in their relationship’s slow pace.
Costner resides in Carpinteria, California, while Noonan lives about 100 miles away in Manhattan Beach.
For now, things are still in the early stages, with both stars focusing on their respective lives and families.

This reported romance comes after Costner, 70, finalized his contentious divorce from Christine Baumgartner in 2023.
The split was highly publicized, with both sides eventually releasing a joint statement saying they had reached “an amicable and mutually agreed upon resolution of all issues.”
