Synopsis

Despite Kevin Costner's public denials, sources suggest he pursued a romance with Jewel, but she wasn't interested. Insiders reveal that Costner's attempts to woo Jewel failed because she prioritizes her music career and independence.

Kevin Costner may still have his heart set on Jewel, but she appears to have other plans. Despite his public denials of romance rumors, sources say he tried to pursue her.

His decision, however, may have backfired due to timing and ambition rather than drama.

Did Kevin Costner try to date Jewel?

Although Kevin Costner's romantic life is a frequently discussed topic in Hollywood, some insiders seem to believe that he is still attempting to court Jewel.

Kevin Costner reportedly attempted a daring romance with singer Jewel, but insiders say it failed. He is now in the friend zone.

While he claims they're "just friends," sources say he misunderstood her emphasis on career and independence. Jewel isn't prepared to be anyone's arm candy, and Kevin Costner may have to accept that.

Why didn’t Jewel go for it?

In June 2024, the actor adamantly told Howard Stern that he and the 54-year-old singer were merely "friends" and had "never gone out" before. Nevertheless, according to a Life & Style insider, Costner made an attempt to date the singer.

The source stated that Jewel is still actively pursuing "her music career and writing," adding that "Kevin's big miscalculation in his ongoing attempts to woo Jewel is his failing to understand that she isn't done yet, and she's certainly not in any frame of mind where she would want to be arm candy,” as quoted in a report by SheKnows.

Costner may not have been able to persuade her to date him because his A-list lifestyle isn't ideal for someone who is focused on their career. "He would have loved to work with her and even date her, but he has to accept being her biggest fan instead because she still has a lot of mountains she wants to climb herself."

They were seen together at a charity tennis tournament on Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands in November 2023, which sparked the first rumors about their relationship. "Kevin appeared fit, tanned, and attractive.

In December 2023, an eyewitness told In Touch Weekly, "Everyone was crazy about him." "He and Jewel clicked really well."

In an interview with Elle in April 2024, Jewel was evasive about their potential romance. She told the media outlet, "He's a great person, the public fascination is intense for sure," without providing much context. The only indication that a flirtation might have taken place was that she "blushed" when discussing Costner.
