LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Singer Jewel describes Kevin Costner as a "great person."

Reports of their affair surfaced in November, nearly six months following the split between the 'Yellowstone' actor and his wife, Christine Baumgartner.

In a conversation with Elle Magazine, Jewel remarked, "He's a great person," as she blushed. She added, "[But] the public fascination is intense for sure."

When did Jewel and Costner meet?

Last year during Thanksgiving, the two were seen together on a private island in the Caribbean.

TMZ reported, as told by an onlooker, "There was definitely something going on. They were flirty, and when they were together, it was like they both just lit up."

According to a source, ex-wife Christine was relieved that he didn’t pursue a "fame-seeking bimbo."

"She said she's happy for him, but it still isn't a great feeling seeing your ex with someone new," the close friend added.

The former partners continue to co-parent three children, Cayden (16), Hayes (14), and Grace (13). Christine receives $63,209 a month in child support from Costner.

Internet reacts as Jewel opens up for the first time about her rumored boyfriend

One person commented online, "Love Jewel. Hope these 2 have a wonderful future together."

Another user opined, "Well, it’s nice to know that he is with a successful and independent woman who will not go after his money like the last one."

An individual remarked, "She comes from humble beginnings like Costner did so clearly has a different attitude when it comes to money than his ex did."

One user suggested, "Maybe just maybe he should try dating someone in his age range."

"I love them both, but I can't wrap my head around them as a couple," wrote a user.

"I honestly haven’t ever heard anything bad about him. Seems like a classy individual kind of like Clooney," one person commented.

A Costner admirer said, "There's no better man on the planet than Kevin Costner. My love is real."
