Kevin Costner is sparking romance rumors with lifestyle coach Jennifer Milburn after the pair were spotted running errands at a local grocery store.

In photos obtained by the Daily Mail on Tuesday, September 15, the pair were all smiles when they shopped at an Albertsons store in Santa Barbara, California, earlier this month.

Costner, 71, sported a white polo and matching jeans with flip-flops as he reportedly purchased cereal, grapefruit juice, steaks and vegetables.

As for Milburn, 40, she kept things casual with a white button-down, denim shorts and sandals before hopping in Costner's Mercedes-Benz and presumably heading back to his home near the central California coast.

According to the Daily Mail, Milburn - who keeps her social media pages private - hails from Aspen, Colorado, and previously worked as a flight attendant. The local model currently works remotely as director of partnerships for Simon Sinek's The Optimism Company, per her LinkedIn.

She also worked for several years at the Western retailer Kemo Sabe, which has been featured on several reality shows, including The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

Us has reached out to Costner's rep for comment.

The former Yellowstone actor has tried to keep his personal life out of the spotlight since finalizing his divorce from Christine Baumgartner in February 2024 after nearly 18 years of marriage.

In August 2025, however, Us exclusively confirmed Costner was seeing director and authorKelly Noonan Gores.

"They are hanging out casually and were connected by friends," one source revealed at the time. "They both frequent Aspen often and have mutual friend groups. They have been getting to know each other and seeing each other casually when they can."

Another insider later told Us in a January cover story that Costner was not looking for a serious relationship or marriage anytime soon. "After such a public and expensive divorce, he's being cautious," the source explained.

Through all of life's ups and downs, the actor appeared to remain a believer in love and relationships.

In June 2024, Costner gave a rare glimpse into what he was looking for in a partner after his headline-making divorce.

"A person who wants to be loved," he told Fox News, "and they … feel like they're at their very best, and that love helps that and doesn't hinder it."

One year later, he expressed his love for relationships by telling Extra, "People are supposed to be together. I'm sure that could happen for me."

Costner, who was married to Cindy Silva before Baumgartner, 52, is a father of seven children.
