Oddly enough, 2023 has been the year of many things, such as Taylor Swift-mania, everyone donning silver for Beyoncé, and, strangely enough, everyone is kind of obsessed with Kevin Costner’s love life. Earlier this year, he and his now ex-wife Christine Baumgartner had a very contentious divorce, that ended rather quickly, and now he has his eyes set on 1990 singer Jewel. Everyone wants to know what the star is up to, and wants to know all the details about how he and Jewel ended up together. But while digging, some eagle-eyed fans noticed a peculiar pattern of Costner’s, and are putting it under the spotlight.
Eve Crosbie, the Weekend Entertainment Reporter at Insider, wrote on Dec 12, a piece called “Dances with divorce,” where she detailed a peculiar pattern many have seen with Costner’s divorces: right after he and his wife divorce, something detrimental happens to his career.
Crosbie ran down what happened earlier this year with Costner and Baumgartner, specifically that Baumgartner filed for divorce in May, and “days later, Paramount announced that Yellowstone would end with its fifth season.”
Then she dropped another example of pattern: the events after his divorce from his first wife Cindy Silva. She divorced him in 1994, and a year later, the movie he invested in and starred in, Waterworld, famously tanked.
But despite both of these instances, he’s found love again, and usually finds another project for a comeback.
For those who won’t know, Costner was married to Silva from 1978 to 1994, and then was married to Baumgartner from 2004 to 2023. Now, in Dec 2023, he’s currently seeing Jewel.
