Identity of ‘Mystery Woman’ Seen With Kevin Costner Finally Revealed
Identity of Kevin Costner’s Lunch Companion Revealed
The identity of the woman recently seen having lunch with Kevin Costner in Los Angeles has been confirmed — and it’s far less scandalous than some speculated.
Costner, 70, was spotted on Monday dining with an unidentified woman, prompting some buzz due to ongoing rumors linking him to Jennifer Lopez. However, sources confirm the woman is none other than his longtime assistant, who has worked with the Yellowstoneactor for the past two years. The two were seen leaving the LA restaurant together, with the woman carrying a backpack — suggesting nothing more than a casual, professional outing.
Costner has been at the center of dating rumors since his high-profile split from ex-wife Christine Baumgartner. The couple, who share three children, finalized their divorce in February 2024 after 18 years of marriage. While Baumgartner is now engaged to a new partner, Costner has yet to be publicly linked to anyone new.
Speculation ramped up late last year when Costner and Jennifer Lopez were both seen shopping at Kemo Sabe, a luxury Western wear store in Aspen, Colorado. While that encounter sparked headlines, it remains unclear if the two even interacted during their visit, and no further reports have emerged.
As one of Hollywood’s most eligible bachelors, Costner is bound to draw attention whenever he’s seen with a woman. For now, though, there’s nothing romantic to report — just business as usual.
Most recently, the Dances With Wolves star shared an Earth Day message on Instagram, quoting his iconic character Lieutenant John Dunbar: “There can be no place like this Earth.” Costner added, “My awe of this beautiful place we get to call home is certainly a thread I’ve woven through my career. I hope you’ll take a moment to celebrate all that Earth has to offer us on this Earth Day
