The Internet’s boyfriend Keanu Reeves is officially taken!
The actor was seen holding hands with visual artist Alexandra Grant when they attended the LACMA Art + Film Gala together.
Madly in Love
Reeves was reportedly single for close to two decades and this is his first public relationship in years. Although fans didn’t see Keanu Reeves’ relationship with Alexandra Grant coming, it doesn’t come out of the blue.
The Matrix actor, 55, has reportedly been friends with Grant, 46, since they met ten years ago.
The duo collaborated twice in the past. First on the 2011 book “Ode to Happiness” and 2016 “Shadows,” in which Reeves provided the text, while Grant provided the illustrations.
In 2017 they also founded publishing house X Artists’ Books together.
The Matrix star has had a busy year – he appeared in the third installment of “John Wick,” had a cameo in the Netflix original film “Always Be My Maybe”, and voiced a part in “Toy Story 4.” Reeves will also portray a character in the 2020 video game Cyberpunk 2077.
He will also resume the character of Neo in the upcoming “The Matrix 4.”
Happy, At Last…
The “John Wick” actor is famously private, but it’s not without a reason.
The Matrix actor has had experienced tragedy quite a bit in his life. He became best friends with another actor, River Phoenix, who developed a drug addiction while filming “My Own Private Idaho,” which was the reason he died – he overdosed in 1993.
Five years later, his longtime girlfriend Jennifer Syme gave birth to a stillborn, and 2 years later died unexpectedly in a car accident when she was 28 years old.
Following her death, Reeves rarely talked about his past life and relationships. So it’s no wonder his fans are thrilled about the latest news and the fact that he’s finally found happiness.
Some are praising Reeves for having an age appropriate girlfriend, while others are saying his new girlfriend looks old, but what matters the most is that he genuinely seems happy.
And we are also happy for him.
