Jewel Opens Up About Kevin Costner Dating Rumors for 1st Time: ‘A Great Person’
Jewel is breaking her silence on her rumored romance with Yellowstone star Kevin Costner.
“He’s a great person,” she told Elle in a new profile published Thursday, April 11, adding that “the public fascination is intense for sure.”
Costner, 69, and Jewel, 49, first sparked romance rumors after they were spotted spending time together on Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands while attending a tennis fundraiser for Jewel’s Inspiring Children Foundation in December last year.
In photos published by TMZ, Costner was seen with his arms wrapped around the “You Were Meant for Me” singer’s waist as she held a microphone while seemingly addressing a crowd. The pair also posed together in a group photo, wearing matching all-white ensembles.
Shortly after the photos were published, an insider exclusively told Us Weekly that the pair had been quietly dating for some time.
“Kevin and Jewel had an extremely high opinion of each other and have always gotten along great,” the source explained. “They check a lot of boxes for each other.”
