Keanu Reeves and Alexandra Grant: A Bond Built on Communication, Support, and the Open Road

It’s all about the journey. Keanu Reeves has made no secret of his affection for girlfriend Alexandra Grant, showing up on red carpets to smooch or hold hands with the artist during their seven-year relationship. But the 60-year-old mostly stayed mum on the romance — which followed a long friendship and literary collaborations — until recently, when he revealed their bond is built on “sharing, communicating, you know, supporting.” The motorcycle obsessive also gave a peek into their lust for the open road, revealing that they’ve taken a few trips together — and that Alexandra, who he calls “my honey,” has the greater need for speed! A source says the John Wick star and the painter, 51, “go riding in the canyons of L.A., and it’s like they can disappear for hours.”

Though Keanu has teased crushes on A-list actresses in the past, including two-time costar Winona Ryder and Speed’s Sandra Bullock, the source says his intense bond with Alexandra is a true meeting of minds. “They really enjoy collaborating on artistic projects and appreciate what each other contributes,” adds the insider. “Keanu sees himself in Alexandra, and vice versa.”

The source adds that at this point, the low-key lovers feel no pressure to get married. “They’re so happy with the way things stand. Knowing them, if they decide to tie the knot, it’ll probably be spur of the moment.”
