On his birthday, he posted a photo of himself sitting on a porch smiling while wearing a cowboy hat with the caption, &#8220;Don\u2019t believe what they say about getting older. Each passing year is a gift, and it gets better and better with time. Thank you for the birthday wishes.&#8221; The &#8220;Yellowstone&#8221; star had some castmates wish him a happy birthday on Instagram, including Brecken Merrill, who plays Tate Dutton, Costner&#8217;s grandson in the television series. Merrill wrote, &#8220;Happy birthday to the coolest tv grandfather and legendary coworker a kid could ever have! I hope there\u2019s cake on your plate tonight.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>His birthday celebrations come soon after Costner won a Golden Globe Award for &#8220;Best Actor&#8221; for his role in &#8220;Yellowstone.&#8221; Costner was unable to attend the award show due to severe flooding going on in Los Angeles County. He took to Twitter, posting a video just before the awards show detailing his experience with the flooding. &#8220;Yesterday we had to pull the kids out of school in Santa Barbara,&#8221; Costner said in the video. &#8220;This is the second time in five years that the freeway has flooded out, we found ourselves on the wrong side of the town and we couldn&#8217;t get back last night.&#8221; Despite not being in attendance, Costner still won the &#8220;Best Actor&#8221; award.<\/p>\n<p>Costner&#8217;s hit show &#8220;Yellowstone&#8221; is about a fictional family who owns Montana&#8217;s largest ranch with many twists and turns of conflict dealing with an expanding town, Indian reservations and America&#8217;s first national park. Costner plays John Dutton, the head of the family.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kevin Costner recently celebrated his 68th birthday, and offered his fans some advice on getting older.
