The One Big Requirement Kevin Costner Has for His New Partner

In 2024 and 2025, all attention is on Kevin Costner and his love life. Rumors have swirled about him possibly dating Jennifer Lopez or eyeing other A-list friends. But insiders reveal that Kevin has one clear rule when it comes to his new girlfriend: she can’t be a Hollywood star.

“Kevin doesn’t like dating actresses or people from the Hollywood scene,” a source shared. “He prefers someone more down-to-earth, a regular person.” They also noted, “Kevin appreciates the admiration but isn’t rushing into anything serious right now. For 2025, his focus is on his projects and balancing his personal life. He’s hoping to get out more and maybe find the right person. He’s feeling optimistic.”

So while Costner might be open to a new romance, it probably won’t be with a fellow actor. This isn’t all that surprising. Over the years, although he’s been linked to many actresses, he’s also had meaningful relationships with people outside of the spotlight.

For example, his ex-wife Christine Baumgartner ran a handbag business, and they met by chance. He also briefly dated Bridget Rooney, niece of the former Pittsburgh Steelers owner Dan Rooney. Even with his first wife, Cindy Silva, who is an actress, their relationship began before either of them was famous.
