Months after going through a painful separation from longtime wife Christine Baumgartner, it looks as though Kevin Costner has potentially found love again.

According to reports, the Yellowstone star has entered a relationship with singer Jewel – the two were recently snapped together on Richard Branson’s Necker Island at a tennis fundraiser for the Inspiring Children Foundation.

TMZ claim that the pair had flown to the Caribbean together and spent time in each other’s company for over a week. This, of course, comes not long after the drama Costner went through as a result of his post-relationship court battle with the aforementioned Baumgartner.

According to reports, Costner was blindsided by his wife’s decision to begin divorce proceedings back in May of this year. The whole sorry saga then continued to spiral downwards from there.

In early May, Christine filed divorce papers, citing “irreconcilable differences”. The pair had been married for 18 years.

A representative for Costner released a statement reading: “It is with great sadness that circumstances beyond his control have transpired which have resulted in Mr. Costner having to participate in a dissolution of marriage action.

“We ask that his, Christine’s and their children’s privacy be respected as they navigate this difficult time.”

Costner and Baumgartner married in 2004. The couple have three kids together: sons Cayden, 15, and Hayes, 14, and daughter Grace, 12.

What followed Baumgartner’s filing was a bitter feud between she and Costner, one that included the former being forced out of the family home – as per a prenuptial agreement – and the latter being ordered to pay $63,209 per month in child support.

As mentioned above, the pair flew to the Caribbean together, with one source stating: “There was definitely something going on. They were flirty, and when they were together, it was like they both just lit up.” 

Another source added: “You could tell they were trying to be discreet, but anybody who saw them could tell something was going on.”

Not only that, but Jewel mentioned Costner on social media. Referring to the tennis fundraiser held on Necker Island, located in the British Virgin Islands, she said: “It’s an incredible time, and one I use to relax, rest and play w my son! @kevincostnermodernwest was kind enough to mentor our kids this year.”

TMZ also say that Costner and Jewel flew back together. A source told them that Jewel is “picky,” adding: “She wants a good man, and Kevin fits the bill.”

The royal family is often in the press, but there’s no denying that some members are more prominent than others. Naturally, Queen Elizabeth II was written about frequently, as well as other senior members including her son King Charles III, his sons Prince William and Prince Harry, and their wives Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle. Tragically, Queen Elizaebeth II passed away on Sept. 8th. 2022 while at her home at Balmoral Castle.

 

The late queen’s other children, such as Princess Anne and Prince Andrew are also written about from time to time, but probably the least written about is Prince Edward, the youngest of Elizabeth’s children with the late Prince Philip. Upon birth, Edward was third in the line of succession, however, since his siblings have had children of their own and even grandchildren, he is now 14th in line.

For a long time, the 60-year-old Duke of Edinburgh has kept his life from the limelight, seeking to remain as anonymous as possible. Because of this, less is known about Edward’s life, but we do know that he used to work as a TV and theater producer before he stepped up to become a senior working member of the royal family.

Edward’s personal life is also incredibly low-key. Married to Sophie Rhys-Jones, now known as Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, Edward has been married for over 20 years and is actually the only child of the queen and Prince Philip that hasn’t gotten divorced. Together, the couple has two children, Lady Louise Windsor and James, Viscount Severn.

The family often attends royal family events but has a knack for staying under the radar. Let’s take a closer look at Prince Edward and his family’s lives.

Donald Sutherland, the acclaimed and prolific actor who starred in countless beloved films across his five-decade career, has died at 88.

 

Sutherland’s career ranged from early breakout roles in The Dirty Dozen and MASH to Oscar winners like Klute and Ordinary People, to his villainous role in the Hunger Games franchise.

The Emmy Award winner died at his home in Miami today following a long illness, his agency CAA confirmed to Deadline.

Sutherland was born July 17, 1935 in New Brunswick, Canada, later moving to Bridgewater, Nova Scotia. Throughout his childhood he battled a number of serious illnesses including polio, rheumatic fever and spinal meningitis.

He left Canada to pursue an interest in acting at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, and soon found work in TV and low-budget films.

He got a Hollywood breakthrough in the classic war film The Dirty Dozen, whose ensemble cast includes Lee Marvin, Charles Bronson, Ernest Borgnine and Jim Brown. It was the fifth highest grossing film of 1967.

After leaving London for Hollywood, Sutherland landed one of his most iconic roles in the 1970 anti-war comedy-drama MASH, originating the role of “Hawkeye” Pierce. MASH was one of the most successful films of the decade and is regarded as a classic.

Throughout the ’70s, Sutherland was a Hollywood leading man: his films include in the Oscar-winning Klute opposite Jane Fonda, the psychological horror Don’t Look Now, and the remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. He also appeared in the hit comedy Animal House.

In 1980, he starred in Robert Redford’s Ordinary People, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture. Other major films include Backdraft, JFK, Six Degrees of Separation, The Italian Job and Pride and Prejudice.

Sutherland also had success on TV, winning an Emmy Award for the 1995 film Citizen X, and a Golden Globe for the television film Path to War.

A younger generation of moviegoers was introduced to Sutherland through The Hunger Games, the hit dystopian blockbuster series: Sutherland starred as the villainous President Coriolanus Snow.

Though he surprisingly never received an Oscar nomination, he received an Academy Honorary Award in 2017, “for a lifetime of indelible characters, rendered with unwavering truthfulness.” He also received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2011, and on the Canadian Walk of Fame in 2000.

Sutherland was married three times; he was married to actress Francine Racette for 52 years until his death. He was previously married to Lois May Hardwick and Shirley Douglas, and also had an affair with his Klute co-star Jane Fonda.

He had five children — including most famously his son Kiefer Sutherland, the actor best known for playing Jack Bauer in 24.

”I was too young to go watch my father’s films in the cinema,” Kiefer Sutherland told The Hollywood Reporter in 2017. “By the time I hit 20, VHS was available and a friend of my fathers had a lot of his films. In three days I watched Don’t Look Know, Klute, M*A*S*H, Kelly’s Heroes, 1900 and Fellini’s Casanova.”

“It was such a wide spectrum of characters, and I remember calling him up and I felt really badly that I grew up not knowing what a profoundly special actor he was, I felt horribly guilty of that. As a young actor, I had never known or seen another actor who’ve done characters so diverse either.”

 

Prince William recently opened up about a heartwarming childhood moment he shared with his mother, Princess Diana. To help ease the back-to-school worries, Princess Diana would play lively 80s music in the car. This created a comforting and joyful atmosphere for William and his brother, Harry, as they embarked on their school day.

One song in particular, Tina Turner’s “The Best,” holds a special place in William’s heart. He fondly remembers sitting in the backseat, singing along with his mother at the top of her voice. Even the police officer who occasionally accompanied them would join in the singing. The music would continue all the way to the school gates, creating a wonderful family moment.

Listening to “The Best” now instantly transports Prince William back to those car rides and brings back cherished memories of his mother. It’s a reminder of the love and warmth they shared during those precious moments together.

Prince William also shared a glimpse into his own family’s morning routine, which involves music as well. Every morning, his children, Charlotte and George, playfully compete over choosing the morning song. To make things fair, William takes turns allowing each of them to pick the song. It’s a lively and joyful way to start the day as they dance, sing, and enjoy each other’s company.

Actress Jennifer Garner is a national treasure. When she is not acting, the actress lives a calm life filled with thoughtful little moments. Recently, the actress opened up about her plans for her birthday.

On April 17, the actress will turn 51 years old. And she already has plans on what she will be doing on that day. Keep reading to learn more about what Garner plans on doing for her big birthday!

As always, Jennifer Garner has won thousands of people over with her simplicity. The actress is aboout to turn 51 years old in a few days and finally revealed what she will be doing to commemorate the big day!

She shared that she is ’’going to plant trees’’ with some of her close friends on the day. The actress does not wan to make a big deal about the big day. She said of her birthday, ’’I mean 51 is a lot less exciting than 50.’’

It should not come as a surprise that the actress wants to spend her birthday outdoors in nature considering her penchant for gardening and farming. Her green thumb led her to save her family’s farm which further led to her venture for organic baby food named Farmer Jen & the Giant Squash.

Her mother grew up on the farm, and over the years as everyone grew up and moved away, the farm did not have one set of owners. It kept switching ownership from one family member to another as it was bought and sold repeatedly. Then finally, in 2017, Jennifer Garner decided to purchase the farm herself.

And she did not just purchase the farm for the sake of memory but she had the vision to turn it into a profitable business once again. To do so, she hired her uncle Robert and aunt Janet, who had previously owned the farm to help her with it.

It had been 40 years since the farm had been planted and tended to. In the past, her mother and her siblings had been avid farmers and sold pecans as well as grew lettuce, radishes, and potatoes.

And Jennifer wanted to bring that back. She established “Once Upon a Farm” with co-founders Ari Raz, John Foraker, and Cassandra Curtis. The idea was to grow organic fruits and vegetables that could be made into nutritious food for children.

She said she had been dreaming about the project for a while, “once upon a time… we dreamed of bringing baby food back to the roots with organic fruits and veggies harvested from local farmers, blended with love and served fresh from the fridge. We dreamed of feeling less stressed about mealtimes because we could feed our little ones foods that give them all the nutrients they need – and then some!”

The project is incredibly close to her heart. The actress said about it, ’’Of anything I’ve ever done, this means the most to my mom — that her farm is being brought back to life, and it’s growing things for babies.”

While she is choosing to forgo a big celebration for her 51st birthday, the 13 Going on 30 actress threw a big bash for her 50th birthday last year. She said about her 50th birthday party, ’I basically had a wedding for myself’’ she added that she was ‘shocked’ at herself for doing so.

While her guests had a wonderful time at the birthday where they danced and had a lot of fun, she also put them to work. She wanted everyone to help her with a charity by filling 5,000 backpacks, each with enough food to feed a family of 4.

This is why so many people love Jennifer Garner, while she celebrates herself and her loved ones, she is never unaware of those who struggle and need some help. While she makes the most of her life, she also makes sure those who are less fortunate than her get some help too.

Jennifer Garner is embracing every precious year of life.

In  this week’s issue of PEOPLE, the 51-year-old actress and longtime Neutrogena brand ambassadoradmits that even though she has her “moments” where she reflects on her younger years, “Honestly, mostly, I am grateful just to be alive.”

“And I’m grateful for the wisdom that I’ve gleaned out of these years and really grateful to be able to watch other women go through this process of life so gracefully,” Garner adds.

She also says she tries “to follow in their footsteps and tell other young women, ‘Take care of yourself, but don’t be scared. Aging is a gift.’ “

As for what her own personal self-care routine looks like, the 13 Going on 30 actress tells PEOPLE she works out “every day,” as “it’s super important for my mental health.”

“I eat really well. I just finished a big bowl of kale,” she continues. “And I have a really strong family and strong relationships in my life.”

The mother of three — who shares Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12, with ex-husband Ben Affleck — says she also allows herself to “have down days.”

 

“I don’t try to be Pollyanna all the time,” Garner says. “And I’m gentle with myself.”

Though she prioritizes her own health, for her upcoming birthday next month, Garner is prioritizing “look(ing) outside of” herself.

“Every year I do something that I love to include people in that feeds me,” says the Once Upon a Farm co-founder. “Last year I went to a park in L.A. and planted trees with my kids. One year we loaded backpacks up to give kids food to take home with them after school.”

“I know what I’m going to do this year, and it’s coming together,” adds the Family Switch actress. “To me that day is about: How am I going to look outside of myself? How am I giving back to the world that gives me so much?”

A lot happened in 1972. Don McLean’s hit song “American Pie” was No. 1, Richard Nixon was president, his administration was trying to cover up its involvement in the Watergate Scandal, NASA’s Space Shuttle program was officially launched, and Bob Barker, the host of a new game show called the Price is Right, was giving away brand new cars that were then valued at less than $4000.

Synonymous with The Price is Right, Bob Barker is an entertainment icon, a cross-generational household name, who hosted the popular game show for 35 years.

Growing up on an Indian reservation in South Dakota, Barker–a member of the Sioux Tribe–met his future wife, Dorothy Jo Gideon at an Ella Fitzgerald concert. He married Gideon, his high school sweetheart in 1945, when he was on leave from the United States Navy Reserve, where during World War II, he trained as a fighter pilot. He never served on active duty but did return to university and graduated with an economics degree.

Barker, now 99, was hosting a radio show in Los Angeles when he captured the attention of Ralph Edwards, a game show producer who was looking for a new host of Truth or Consequences, the first game show to be broadcast on TV. Hosting the hugely popular show from 1956 to 1975, Barker’s popularity was rising, and in 1967, he started hosting Miss Universe and Miss USA pageants.

And then it happened. In 1972, he appeared on the stage of The Price is Right, which launched him and the show, into superstardom.

The Price is Right became the longest running game show in history, a title it still holds, and Barker, serving as executive producer in 1988, won 14 Daytime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Game Show Host and four Emmys for his role as executive producer.

Bob Barker wife and girlfriend

Speaking with the Television Academy Foundation in 2008, Barker credits his late wife for his successful career, saying “She gave me the confidence to even try to do what I set out to do. She didn’t just urge me on, she worked right at my side.”

In 1981, Gideon, 57, died of lung cancer, leaving her husband of 36 years behind.

“I never had any inclination to remarry. She was my wife.” Barker said.

He did however find another partner, Nancy Burnet, who has been with Barker now 40 years. According to Nancy, one of the key factors contributing to Barker’s good health is his limited use of medication over the years.

Right before his 99th birthday in December, Burnet, now 79, spoke with Fox News Digital and made a surprising statement, “He’s going to be 99, and he takes one prescription medication and that’s for his thyroid. And his health care or anyone who comes in to see him, they’ll say, ‘Well, we’d like a list of his medications.’ I’ll say, you know, let me just show you the bottle. That’s it. So, he does not take anything for blood pressure, cholesterol, the umpteen other things that most people take as they grow older,” said Burnet, joking about his one prescription:

“He’s in very good health for his age and his humor is still in good shape. He’s had a very charmed life.”

But it wasn’t always that way.

In 1999, after experiencing what he described as clumsiness in his hand, Barker had surgery to correct a partially blocked artery and to reduce the risk of stroke. In 2002, he had a stroke and months later had prostate surgery. A sun lover, he’s also had several cases of mild skin cancer, a series of falls requiring more hospital visits, and major back problems.

Burnet explains her intervention, helping Barker, a long-time vegetarian, gain strength with supplements. “It was not to replace meals but to enhance everything. To take that in addition to his meals because he was not doing well. He was looking tired and kind of frail, not just not looking healthy. And, you know, if you’re going to be a vegetarian and vegan, you better know what you’re doing.”

After retiring his position on the Price is Right, now hosted by comedian Drew Carey, he’s had a few guest appearances, including in 2013 on his 90th birthday.

Burnet said of his time on the show, “He never grew tired of it. I’m not sure I could do the same show every day. But he never grew bored with it. So maybe that’s why it was so successful because he was always ready to do it and happy to do it.”

A sentiment Barker also expressed on Good Morning America in 2007.

“I am really not ready to say goodbye to it. So, I think it’s a good time to say goodbye because I want to leave them wanting more.”

He left with some great memories, from Vanna White competing on Price is Right before she reached Wheel of Fortune fame, to women contestants losing their tops after jumping up and down in excitement.

But the greatest thing was that the show gave Barker a platform to bring awareness to the wellbeing of animals.

Barker is also known as an advocate for animal rights and his show-ending catch phrase, “This is Bob Barker reminding you to help control the pet population. Have your pets spayed or neutered.”

He credits his late wife, Gideon, as the inspiration behind his animal activism.

“She was ahead of her time,” Barker told Good Morning America. “She stopped wearing fur coats before anyone was stopping. She became a vegetarian before people were becoming vegetarian. And I gradually did the same thing with her.”

In fact, through his DJ&T Foundation (named after Gideon and his mom, Matilda or “Tilly,” both animal lovers) he’s donated millions, successfully establishing animal-rights curricula at law schools, including Harvard, Columbia and Northwestern.

“If young people are introduced to the terrible exploitation and mistreatment of animals in society, it will help influence them in anything they do,” Barker told the Associated Press in 2015. “When your education and encouragement fail, you have to have legislation.”

Burnet, whom he met at an animal adoption event he hosted in 1983, champions animal advocacy with Barker, also campaigning against animal entertainment.
