Christine Baumgartner and her new boyfriend Josh Connor were spotted out together after lunch and some shopping in Calabasas.

The 50-year-old ex-wife of Kevin Costner was all smiles as she donned a trendy look for the outing with a white t-shirt and dark 90s style jeans.

She added a touched of luxury with a gold jewelry and a purse which she carried over her shoulder.

Her blonde locks looked stunning as they cascaded over her shoulders and bounced in the wind while she wore light makeup.

Connor, 49, cut a casual figure as he wore a black t-shirt and joggers paired with some trendy sneakers and sunglasses.

Earlier this year, DailyMail.com exclusively revealed Baumgartner had moved on with Costner's banker buddy Connor - just four months after her bitter divorce from the star, 68.

Since getting together, the couple moved fast. 

They traveled together at Christmastime - her new banker beau flew her to Hawaii on a private jet, sources told DailyMail.com.

Connor, himself a divorced father of three, became legally single on January 3, 2023 – just five months before Baumgartner blindsided Costner by filing for divorce.

The financier is a managing director and co-portfolio manager of Oaktree Capital's Infrastructure Investing strategy, specializing in the transportation sector.

He has worked for the asset management company since 2017 - after serving as a strategic advisor to the firm's Infrastructure Investing team since September 2015.

The father-of-three has worked as an investor, key strategic advisor, lender, and an investment banker to transportation companies around the world.

Before joining Oaktree, he founded Connor Capital SB, an investment firm that focuses on equity investments in transportation companies.

He joined Barclays in 2011 from Morgan Stanley, where he spent 15 years and was the global co-head of the Morgan Stanley Transportation & Infrastructure Group, a member of the Morgan Stanley Investment Banking Management Committee, and on the Board of Trustees for the Morgan Stanley Foundation.

Connor currently serves on the boards of directors of Frontier Airlines and Copa Holdings (NYSE: CPA).

Earlier this year, both Christine and ex Kevin Costner settled their divorce after she filed last year in May following 18 years of marriage. 

While the specific settlement details are undisclosed, TMZ reported that the couple's prenup was upheld by the judge.

Both ex-spouses pursued joint custody, and Christine is granted $63,209 monthly in child support. The settlement was signed by Costner, Baumgartner, and their lawyers Laura Wasser and Marisa Beuoy.

They decided to forgo co-parenting classes, typically mandatory in such cases. The former couple share children: Cayden, 16, Hayes, 14, and Grace, 13. 

However, it has since been reported that Costner had suspected that 'something was going on between Christine and Josh,' a source informed Us Weekly. 

The insider also added that the new couple's 'close [bond] was a real elephant in the room.'

The source also told the publication that since the Oscar winner has also moved on, 'Christine doesn't think Kevin has anything to complain about.'

'Josh has been Christine's rock throughout the divorce ordeal. If Kevin has a problem with that, that's on him,' and also noted that the couple's close friendship had turned romantic 'relatively recently.'

In the midst of their divorce proceedings back in August 2023, Kevin claimed that he 'does not know for a fact' if Baumgartner had 'extramarital' affairs but stated that he had been faithful during their marriage.

In a legal request for order obtained by People at the time, the mother-of-three had asked for further documentation to prove Costner's finances.

Some of the requests included, 'expenses paid by you, or any person at your request or on your behalf, relating to any extramarital romantic relationships.'

In December, Costner was romantically linked to singer Jewel, with a source telling People, 'The relationship between Kevin and Jewel is fresh but not brand new. There is very big attraction on both sides.'

'Jewel likes Kevin's type and Kevin likes to be in a relationship, so this is cool,' the insider continued. 'He is having fun after his contentious divorce. He is glad that is over.'

That same month, the pair seemingly crossed paths and sparked up the rumored romance during a trip to the Caribbean for a charity event.

A separate source also told DailyMail.com exclusively that the two are, 'not serious right now,' but are enjoying their time together.

'Jewel likes herself a man's man and she is all about Kevin's country western vibe. They are having fun.'

Earlier this month, the songstress opened up the Yellowstone actor and gushed to Elle that he is a 'great person.' 

'He's a great person. [But] the public fascination is intense for sure,' she admitted to the outlet.
