Kevin Costner’s girlfriend Jewel will hit the road with Melissa Etheridge for joint North American tour this summer

Jewel – who is in the midst of a new romance with Kevin Costner – will hit the road for a joint tour with Melissa Etheridge in North America this summer.

On Thursday, the 49-year-old singer announced that she and the 62-year-old ’90s icon will embark on a 19-date concert tour starting in July.

It comes almost two years after the release of Jewel’s thirteenth studio album Freewheelin’ Woman.

In addition to her latest music, Jewel fans will be treated to performances of her biggest hits, such as Hands (1998) and You Were Meant For Me (1995).

Etheridge, who also shared the news on Instagram, is fresh off a solo tour when she takes the stage with Jewel for their first show in Bonner, Montana at the KettleHouse Amphitheater.

After performing for fans in Montana and Washington, the duo will head to Nevada and California in late July before hitting the Midwest in August.

They will take a five-week break from August 8 to September 16, during which Melissa will embark on a nine-date tour with the Indigo Girls.

They will then reunite for the remaining nine dates in North Carolina, Florida, Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas.

The tour ends on Saturday, October 5 at the Walmart AMP in the city of Rogers, Arkansas.

According to Jewel and Melissa’s Instagram posts, tickets will be available to the public on January 19 at 10am local, following an artist pre-sale on Wednesday, January 17 at 10am local.

Ticket information is available on both singers’ official websites.

Melissa’s I’m Not Broken tour was announced in November and kicks off on March 14 in Santa Cruz, California. The final show will take place on May 17 in Sydney, Australia.

With the show still six months away, Jewel has plenty of time to spend with her new boyfriend Kevin Costner, 68.

Earlier this month, the lovebirds were both in snowy Colorado for the New Year.

Jewel was there at an event at the Sheridan Opera House in Telluride, while Costner was spotted in nearby Aspen.

The songbird and the actor were first spotted together on Richard Branson’s Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands over Thanksgiving weekend in November.

Costner was on Necker Island for a tennis fundraiser for Jewel’s Inspiring Children Foundation.

He and the singer flew to the Caribbean together and spent more than a week hanging out. It was also claimed that they left the event together after being by each other’s side every day.

The site also shared images showing Kevin’s arms around her waist as she spoke into a microphone. They seemed very flirty and were smiling from ear to ear, suggesting that they were really enjoying each other’s company.

Her son Kase, 12, who she had with ex-husband Ty Murray, appeared to be traveling and was seen on the beach with the star in her Instagram photos.

Jewel mentioned Costner when talking about the fundraising event on her Instagram, saying he was “kind enough to mentor our kids this year.”

She added of the event: “Every year my foundation and I go to Necker Island to help organize a tennis event with Richard Branson to raise money for our children. Great players like to come and support us in doubles with the people who come.

‘It’s an incredible time, which I use to relax, rest and play with my son! and Sir Richard was his usual inspiring self, also playing a mean double!’

“Costner seemed upbeat and more interested in looking to the future than dwelling on his headline-grabbing split from wife of 19 years, Baumgartner,” a source told PageSix of the trip.

The split in question was that of his acrimonious divorce from wife of 18 years, Christine Baumgartner, last year.

The former couple have three children: Cayden, 16, Hayes, 14, and Grace, 13.
