Happy Birthday to Kevin Costner
Kevin Costner is exactly where he needs to be as he celebrates his 71th birthday.
The two-time Oscar winner’s latest milestone is Saturday, Jan. 18, and a source close to Costner tells PEOPLE that he’s “doing great and having fun with his family and friends.”
His family includes seven children: daughters Annie, 40, Lily, 38, and Grace, 14, plus sons Joe, 36, Liam, 28, Cayden, 17, and Hayes, 15.
But his time with loved ones lately doesn’t include any romantic prospects for Costner, who finalized his divorce from ex-wife Christine Baumgartner.
“He’s not seriously involved with anyone and isn’t necessarily looking for anything more than that right now,” the source adds.

Last year had its memorable moments for Costner, including the release of the first part of his Western epic Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter 1.
While the film “didn’t have overwhelming success,” Costner added at the Venice Film Festival, per Variety, “I’ve had a lot of movies that way, that have stood the test of time.”
The source says now that the Field of Dreams actor “knows people’s moviegoing habits have changed” he is “optimistic about the remainder of [the Horizon films], because he has seen success in streaming.”
“Horizon is close to his heart, and a project he has worked on for years,” the source adds of the film, now streaming on Netflix and Max.
Back in November 2025, Costner shared a rare family photo with most of his kids (sans Liam) as they celebrated Thanksgiving together.
“Hoping you guys had a wonderful Thanksgiving with the people you love most,” he wrote in the caption. “At the top of my ‘grateful for’ list are the many really, really special memories I’ve gotten to make with my kids this year.”
“Here’s to a holiday season dedicated to making more,” the actor concluded.
The source says Costner has spent a lot of time with his kids and died in recent months. “Kevin is cool, real and in some ways old-school in his thinking,” the source says. “He has a lot of interests and loves being busy when he is in that mode.”
