Published: Apr 23 2025

Actor Kevin Costner, 70, made a public appearance on Monday in Los Angeles, possibly on a lunch date with an enigmatic woman whose identity remained a mystery. According to Page Six, the lunch encounter occurred yesterday afternoon, shortly after Costner's divorce from former model and television personality Christine Baumgartner was officially finalized in September 2023.

Costner, dressed casually in a beige sweater and gray jeans, was spotted enjoying lunch with the unidentified woman, who wore blue jeans, a black top, and stylish shoes. However, it remained uncertain whether this gathering was a romantic rendezvous or just a friendly lunch between two acquaintances.

Adding a layer of intrigue to the lunch outing was Costner's previous sighting with singer-actress Jennifer Lopez in Aspen, Colorado, in December. The star of "Yellowstone" and the American Music Award-winning performer were seen together at Kemo Sabe, a high-end Western wear store in the snowy locale. At that time, there was also no clear indication whether Lopez, who had recently finalized her divorce from actor Ben Affleck, and Costner were romantically involved or just spending some quality time together while shopping.

Costner's ex-wife Baumgartner had filed for divorce from the "Field of Dreams" actor in May 2023 after 18 years of marriage and three children. The divorce proceedings took a tumultuous turn before both parties finally reached a settlement in September 2023. "Kevin and Christine Costner have come to an amicable and mutually agreed upon resolution of all issues pertaining to their divorce proceedings," they stated jointly at that time.

The divorce was officially finalized in February 2024. Although Costner has not been definitively linked to another partner since his divorce, Baumgartner has moved on with her life. She is now engaged to financier Josh Connor, who had been with her since she filed for divorce from Costner. According to PEOPLE, Connor popped the question back in January in Santa Barbara, California, marking a new beginning for Baumgartner.
