Kevin Costner’s New Look Sparks Post-Divorce Buzz pen_spark

Following his very public divorce in 2023, Kevin Costner has generated a wave of interest with a recent change in appearance. The 69-year-old actor sported bleached blond hair and a noticeably thicker hairline at the Cannes Film Festival this month.

This has fueled speculation about whether it’s a deliberate post-divorce makeover or simply a stylistic choice for an upcoming role.

While the specifics of their split remain private, Costner and Christine Baumgartner finalized their divorce last year after 19 years of marriage. Reports suggest Baumgartner initiated the proceedings, and the settlement included a monthly child support payment of $63,209 from Costner.

Unsurprisingly, Costner’s newfound single status has also sparked rumors about his romantic life. Several reports linked him to singer Jewel, with some speculating about a vacation trip they supposedly took together. In an April interview, Jewel acknowledged knowing Costner, describing him as “a great person,” but remained coy about any romantic connection, highlighting the public’s intense fascination with the situation.

While fans may have to wait for an official announcement to know for sure if Costner has found new love, a source for Radar Online claims the “Yellowstone” star has undergone a transformation since his split.

“He’s become very meticulous about his hair, even getting extensions,” the source reportedly told The Globe. “He’s also exploring other beauty treatments like Botox and spray tans, seemingly aiming for a more youthful appearance.”

The source added, “He used to be low-maintenance, but now spends hours getting ready and is really fixated on his hair. His friends joke about his bleached hair looking a bit like scarecrow fuzz, but he apparently loves it.”

Costner’s appearance at Cannes this month, introducing the first film in his new Western saga “Horizon: An American Serial,” certainly showcased his new look with the bleached blond hair and a fuller hairline.
