“Kevin is dating and happy again after a very dark time in his life,” one insider told RadarOnline.com. “He has been seeing Kelly. He has tried to keep it very hush hush because he doesn’t want this to go off the rails.”

According to the same source, Costner describes Kelly as “chill” and just “what he needs” after the turbulence of his divorce.

“She is exactly his type and they have a lot in common: the outdoors, sports – she likes to surf – long walks with dogs,” the tipster added. “Also she has young kids and he loves kids, so he thinks that’s cute.”

‘Hot and heavy’

“With Kelly, she has fallen into his charm 110%. He thinks she is very nice, super sexy and likes hanging out with her,” shared another insider. “Kevin can get almost any woman he wants, and Kelly is his target right now and they both are enjoying each other’s company.”

The source added: “It is hot and heavy right now, and the sky is the limit. He’s looking to hang out with her as much as possible, and she is all for it as well.”
