Jennifer Lopez appears ready to explore romance again following her divorce from Ben Affleck. The Boy Next Door star has reportedly been in frequent contact with Hollywood icon Kevin Costner after the two spent time together in Aspen.
According to Closer magazine, Lopez and Costner have been “talking” every day since their recent encounter. A source revealed, “At the moment things are still at the very beginning stages, but after they hung out in Aspen, he made sure to send her a huge bouquet of her favorite flowers with a little handwritten note along with a magnum of champagne.”
Costner’s thoughtful gesture has reportedly sparked a connection between the two. While their interactions remain casual, they are planning a dinner date once their busy schedules align. An insider shared insights into Lopez’s mindset, saying, “J.Lo isn’t ready to rush into anything right now, but she does seem excited about the potential.
Even if they wind up just connecting as friends, it’s still a massive ego boost to have him falling all over her like this.” The report highlighted Costner’s appeal, noting that the Yellowstone actor possesses many of the qualities Lopez values in a partner.
“He’s incredibly successful, and he’s someone that commands a huge amount of respect in the industry and among all their peers,” the source explained. For Lopez, who is navigating life after her high-profile split from Affleck, having someone like Costner in her life would make a “big statement.”
While it remains unclear whether their connection will evolve into a romance, fans are abuzz with curiosity about this potential pairing. Whether as friends or something more, Lopez and Costner’s budding connection is already making waves in Hollywood circles.
