‘He’s So Kind’: Alexandra Grant Admires Keanu Reeves Who She Found Love with after He Survived Loss of Ex & Baby

• Hollywood couple Alexandra Grant and Keanu Reeves have been known to typically keep details surrounding their relationship private.
• Recently, Grant opened up and shared some insights into her romance with Reeves in a rare interview.
• Similarly, earlier this year, Reeves shared a few words about his relationship with Grant.

Iconic Hollywood actor Keanu Reeves, 59, and American visual artist Alexandra Grant, 50, are one of Tinseltown's star couples and have been dating for some time now. The duo is typically private in nature and tends to keep their relationship under wraps.

Thus, when the broader public found out about their romance, many were surprised and overwhelmingly excited, as they had not heard much about the two being together before they were seen holding hands at an art and film gala back in 2019. However, according to a friend of Grant, actress Jennifer Tilly, the couple had already been dating for years prior to their outing.

In a past interview, Tilly recalled the moment she learned about the pair's relationship when Grant gushed over Reeves and called him her boyfriend in one of their conversations. Tilly clarified that even before Reeves and Grant showed up hand-in-hand at the 2019 art and film event, the lovebirds had attended many events together.

In addition to giving some background concerning Grant and Reeves' relationship timeline, the "Bride of Chucky" star boasted about how similar the two are. She explained that, like her artist friend Grant, Reeves is also someone who prefers a life away from the spotlight:

"I saw him at her last art opening, and he's...a really low-key guy, too, and I think why everybody went crazy is that they're sort of the perfect couple...It's not a razzle dazzle Hollywood romance."

Alexandra Grant Opened Up about Her Relationship with Keanu Reeves in a Rare Interview

Recently, Grant attended the Los Angeles Beverly Arts Icon Awards by herself. While there, an interviewer asked her whether it was easier or harder to participate in red carpet events alone, and Grant answered that she feels just as confident walking the carpet alone as she is when she is with her beau.

She credited her ease to the fact that she had already been somewhat established in her career by the time she fell in love and pursued a relationship with Reeves. Following her confirmation of her and Reeves' interdependent yet independent relationship, the question of how Grant and Reeves' careers intersect and how their professional environments mesh came up.

After mapping out her frustrations when it comes to her creative process, Grant spoke about how she and Reeves push each other to achieve great things. Of Reeves and their motivational efforts for each other, Grant expressed:

"What I love about Keanu and our exchange is that we're pushing each other to build new roads...He's such an inspiration to me. He's so creative, he's so kind. He works so hard."

When it comes to their professional pursuits and passions, Grant and Reeves' careers work hand in hand, and at the center of each one's profession is the art of storytelling. While Grant's work entails telling a story in a more private performative manner, producing a painting or an object from text, Reeves' involves transforming that material object into a public performance.

Grant stated that both she and Reeves are researchers and readers at heart who care about telling the stories of characters and people. For the visual artist, there are many similarities between her creative pursuits and Reeves'.

The couple influences each other positively, bringing out the best in each other. According to Grant, her art even changed after she met Reeves. She recalled an instance a few years ago when someone commented on how much happier her work appeared to be.

Similar to how Grant recently shared some details about their relationship, earlier this year, Reeves did the same.

Reeves and Grant are also super supportive of each other and everything they do, like Grant being a superfan of the "John Wick" star's band Dogstar. While discussing details about their romance, she also boasted about Reeves' musical talents, going to the band's first public show, and knowing all the lyrics to all the tracks on their latest album.

She also mentioned how proud she was to see the band performing so well after they reunited for the first time in 20 years. According to Grant:

"I'm glad they're able to do it...really great that Keanu has the ability to pivot to being a musician."

Alexandra Grant Met Keanu Reeves after He Faced a Devastating Time in His Life

Years before Grant started a relationship with her musically inclined partner, Reeves endured an extremely painful and devastating time. At the time, Reeves was romantically involved with his late ex, Jennifer Syme.

However, tragedy ensued when Syme gave birth to their daughter, who was stillborn. Riddled with grief, Syme and Reeves decided to split, and to add insult to injury, she died two years later due to a car accident.

Reeves was absolutely devastated after experiencing extensive trauma. A source labeled as an insider by a news outlet stated:

"Grief and loss, those are things that don't ever go away. They stay with you."

Luckily, everything changed for the better when Reeves met Grant, who helped him through his difficult time. Another outlet for Reeves to deal with his grief and devastation came in the form of a poetry book he created. By contextualizing his grief, Reeves was able to work through it:

"...Let [the grief] move, and not be trapped inside it...It just put things in a new shape that I could carry or have with me."

There is no denying that Reeves and Grant are smitten and in love with each other. Similar to how Grant recently shared some details about their relationship, earlier this year, Reeves did the same.

Though he did not give as much detail into the workings of their romance as Grant did, Reeves still had sentiments to share. While sitting down with a media outlet to answer some questions, Reeves was asked about what his last moment of bliss looked like.

The "Point Break" talent brought up his beloved Grant and spoke about an intimate and tender moment he shared with her. Regarding the question asked, Reeves answered:

"A couple of days ago with my honey. We were in bed...We were smiling and laughing and giggling...It was just really nice to be together."

From how affectionately they speak of each other, Grant and Reeves have a good thing going. They are still going strong and are reportedly happily in love with each other.
