Kevin Costner is likely hoping for a calmer 2024 after the turbulence of 2023. At 68, the Hollywood star is no stranger to media attention, but last year was particularly eventful.
His departure from *Yellowstone* made headlines, but it was soon eclipsed by his unexpected split from Christine Baumgartner, his wife of 18 years. Costner was reportedly blindsided when she filed for divorce in May, leading to a tense legal battle.
Toward the end of the year, rumors circulated that Costner was dating singer Jewel, after the two were seen together at a charity event on Richard Branson’s Necker Island. It seems the actor is moving on from his previous relationship and starting a new chapter.
Despite the personal turmoil, Costner stayed in the public eye, making a standout appearance at the Golden Globes. Presenting an award with America Ferrera, their lighthearted exchange, including Costner’s mention of Ferrera’s *Barbie* monologue, was a hit with viewers.
Their fun back-and-forth quickly gained attention online, with fans praising Costner’s wit and humor as he tried to keep a straight face. As 2024 begins, it seems Costner is embracing the changes in both his personal life and career with a positive attitude.
