Kevin Costner was spotted enjoying a stroll in snowy Aspen on Thursday, amid his new romance with singer Jewel.
The Yellowstone star, 68, stayed warm in a black coat, black scarf and a pair of light grey jeans for the outing.
The Academy Award winner — whose divorce from Christine Baumgartner, 49, was finalized in September — completed the look with a pair of light brown cowboy boots.
The Dances with Wolves actor shielded his eyes with a pair of black sunglasses and held a cellphone in his hand as he walked.
At one point the Hollywood leading man was pictured chatting to a few male friends.
There was no sign of singer Jewel, who Costner has been reportedly dating in recent weeks after finalizing a messy divorce.
Earlier this week Costner was seen leaving Santa Barbara for a pre-Christmas getaway.
He was pictured driving into a private airport in Santa Barbara in a dark Ford pickup truck with two large surfboards fastened on the roof.
Rocking shades, a black shirt, blue jeans and camel-colored cowboy boots, he arrived early Saturday morning at the tarmac where his sleek private jet had been waiting.
He hopped out of the vehicle carrying two pieces of luggage and unloaded the surfboards before sauntering up to the plane along with two male friends who drove in separately.
They then flew off for what sources say was a two-day, pre-Christmas getaway.
‘He just looked like such a movie star getting out of this big black truck and stepping onto his private plane,’ one woman who was at the scene on Saturday told DailyMail.com, fawning over one of her screen idols. ‘Everybody was like, ‘Oh, look!’
‘The man looks really good for his age, like a real cowboy in that monster truck and boots,’ she gushed.
‘He just looked happy and in good spirits, being able to go off with his friends for a couple days.’
The local woman said the truck appeared to be brand new, and appeared to be a larger version of one she said his 16-year-old son Cayden has been driving around Santa Barbara lately.
‘They are their new Christmas toys,’ she said.
It was revealed earlier this month that Costner and Jewel, 49, are dating after a photo emerged showing the pair getting very close on Richard Branson’s Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands.
Costner and Baumgartner, his wife of 19 years, had been embroiled in a months-long legal war which only ended in September.
Kevin was blindsided when Christine filed for divorce in May.
Now that Costner has moved on, Christine said she ‘never could have imagined he and Jewel dating, but in retrospect it makes sense,’ friends told DailyMail.com earlier this month.
‘They’re both into music, into that cowboy thing. What’s not to like about her. At least Jewel is a down to earth person and has her own thing going on,’ our source said.
‘Christine said the last thing she wanted was for some fame seeker to come along and play mom to their three children. But Jewel has a son of her own, she has her own life and isn’t a gold digger. So that’s a relief.’
Christine and Kevin share three children, Cayden, 16, Hayes, 14, and Grace, 13.
Jewel’s son Kase, 12, who she shares with her professional cowboy ex-husband Ty Murray, seemed to be on the trip to Branson’s luxurious island as well.
TMZ shared images showing Kevin’s arms around Jewel’s waist as she spoke into a microphone.
They appeared very flirty and smiled from ear to ear while on the island for a tennis fundraiser for Jewel’s Inspiring Children Foundation.
A source told TMZ, ‘There was definitely something going on. They were flirty, and when they were together, it was like they both just lit up.
‘You could tell they were trying to be discreet, but anybody who saw them could tell something was going on.’
It was also reported that Jewel has been ‘picky about who to date’ but feels Kevin ‘fits the bill’ after her split with Murray in 2014.
Costner’s ex-wife says it’s ‘bittersweet’ to see her Yellowstone actor ex dating just three months after their contentious divorce was finalized.
But Baumgartner thinks it could have been worse, telling a friend the last thing she would want is some fame-seeking bimbo to come along and play mom to their children.
‘Christine said she’s not surprised that Kevin has moved on so quickly, but he didn’t need to make it so obvious by wrapping his arms around her,’.
The source added that Christine is relieved that Costner isn’t dating a ‘fame seeker’ and that Jewel seems like a ‘down to earth person.’
‘She said she’s happy for him, but it still isn’t a great feeling seeing your ex with someone new,’ the friend said.
The divorce was finalized in September, with Costner ordered to pay $63,209 a month in child support payments.
Costner was tentatively ordered to pay $129,755 a month in an initial hearing, though Baumgartner then asked for $175,057 a month during a Santa Barbara hearing in August.
A joint statement from Costner and Baumgartner provided to DailyMail.com read: ‘Kevin and Christine Costner have come to an amicable and mutually agreed upon resolution of all issues pertaining to their divorce proceedings.’
