“It just never has happened for us,” he concluded.
The pair sparked romance rumors after they were seen getting cozy at Jewel’s organization, Inspiring Children Foundation, in the British Virgin Islands on December 8, 2023.
Costner was a guest; however, as she was giving a speech, the Oscar-winning actor wrapped his hands around Jewel’s waist.
At the time, an insider shared with TMZ, “There was definitely something going on.
“You could tell they were trying to be discreet, but anybody who saw them could tell something was going on.
“They were flirty, and when they were together, it was like they were both just lit up.”
MAN OF MARRIAGE
Costner and Jewel’s dating rumors come months after his split from his ex-wife, Christine Baumgartner.
The two began dating in 1998 and tied the knot in 2004.
After nearly 20 years of marriage, Christine filed for divorce from Costner on May 1, citing “irreconcilable differences,” as per TMZ.
At the time, Costner’s representative told the outlet, “It is with great sadness that circumstances beyond his control have transpired which have resulted in Mr. Cosner having to participate in a dissolution of marriage action.”
