After Months of Interest, Kevin Costner Finally Makes a Move on Demi Moore
Kevin Costner Reportedly Pursuing Demi Moore: Flirtation Turning Into Something More?
Rumors are swirling that Kevin Costner has quietly been making a move on longtime friend and co-star Demi Moore — and it might finally be gaining traction.
Sources claim that Costner, still recovering from his very public divorce, has been offering Moore comfort and support after her surprising Oscar snub earlier this year, hoping to transform their long-standing flirtation into something more meaningful.
From Friendly Flirtation to Potential Romance
Despite winning both a Golden Globe and a SAG Award, 62-year-old Demi Moore faced a tough loss at the Academy Awards. Insiders suggest Costner saw this moment as an opportunity to remind her of her beauty, talent, and strength.
“Demi losing to someone much younger definitely stung,” an insider shared. “Kevin’s been reminding her that she’s still one of the most stunning and talented women in the business — but it’s not entirely selfless. He’s always had a soft spot for her.”
Their flirtation reportedly dates back decades, with sparks first igniting during Moore’s 1983 audition for Flashdance. But it was their collaboration on the 2007 thriller Mr. Brooks that truly left an impression on Costner. “They never crossed the line, but Kevin has always spoken very highly of her. He was clearly smitten.”
Billy Bob Thornton Lends a Hand
Apparently, Costner isn’t going it alone. Billy Bob Thornton — Moore’s longtime friend and co-star in the series Landman — is said to be playing matchmaker.
“Billy Bob has been close to Demi for years,” the source said. “He’s been encouraging Kevin to go for it. Now, it’s up to Demi to decide whether she wants to take things further — and friends think she just might.”
A Little Revenge in the Mix?
The timing is certainly intriguing. Costner’s ex-wife, Christine Baumgartner, recently got engaged to one of his former friends, financier Josh Connor. Some insiders suggest that Costner’s interest in Moore may come with a side of revenge.
“Kevin’s not driven by spite, but he wouldn’t mind turning heads — especially Christine’s,” the source claimed. “Seeing him with someone like Demi would definitely get her attention. But to be fair, Kevin’s genuine about his feelings. He’s always admired Demi and thinks the world of her.”
Whether this rumored romance will turn into something real remains to be seen — but one thing’s clear: Kevin Costner isn’t hiding his admiration for Demi Moore anymore.
