Keanu Reeves’ Girlfriend, Alexandra Grant, Reveals What Is It Like to Be in Relationship With Him

Keanu Reeves and his longtime girlfriend, Alexandra Grant, made their first stylish appearance together in nearly three years in a charity event for the 2022 MOCA Gala on Saturday, June 4, at The Geffen Contemporary in Los Angeles. Their relationship has captured the curiosity and admiration of fans worldwide. In a rare and candid interview, Alexandra Grant provides an inside look into what it truly means to be by Keanu Reeves’ side, one of Hollywood’s most enigmatic and beloved figures.

How the pair initially met

Keanu originally met the visual artist at a dinner party in 2009. And they first connected when she did illustrations for one of his books, Ode to Happiness, in 2011. Then, the second one, Shadows, followed in 2016. Later, in 2017, they founded the publishing company X Artists’ Books.

Their relationship

While the exact timeline of Keanu and Alexandra’s romantic relationship is unclear, Grant’s friend, popular actress Jennifer Tilly, revealed in 2020 that the pair had been together romantically for years, much longer than fans thought. She also claimed that Alexandra had referred to Keanu as her “boyfriend.” But it was only in 2020 that the couple officially addressed the rumors surrounding their relationship.

Alexandra Grant opened up about their relationship

Keanu Reeves’ romance with his girlfriend, Alexandra Grant, is admired by many because, from an external view, it appears to be a well-balanced and wholesome connection. In a recent interview, Grant offered a unique perspective on their relationship, revealing her ease with sharing the glamorous red-carpet moments with Reeves:

Alexandra Grant also discussed the mutual support and inspiration that she and Reeves provide for one another as artists:

She also emphasizes that “storytelling is at the heart” of both her and her boyfriend’s endeavors. She adds that her art has “absolutely” changed since she began dating Reeves.

Just like in the most fulfilling relationships, Grant and Reeves’ partnership seems to contribute to their personal growth and individual pursuits, even when working apart.

It’s finally a joyous time for Reeves.

Reeves had endured a painful past as he grew up with an absent father who served time in prison. Moreover, Reeves’ sister Kim was diagnosed with leukemia in 1991. And the actor gave up 70% of his The Matrix income for leukemia research and even auctioned a date with himself. It was also hard for him to lose his good friend, actor and musician River Phoenix, at age 23 in 1993.

Furthermore, Reeves and former girlfriend Jennifer Syme lost their daughter Ava, who was stillborn, in 1999. The couple split when the grief became too much to bear for them, but remained friends until her untimely death in 2001 from a car crash.

Keanu and Alexandra seem just to flow so well together. We are glad that Keanu Reeves is not single anymore and genuinely wish this charming couple to experience only the greatest moments together!
