After years of silence and keeping his personal life completely private, Keanu Reeves, the internet’s favorite celebrity, made a public appearance with his new girlfriend, the artist Alexandra Grant at the LACMA Art + Film Gala red carpet.
It had been years since Reeves had been known to have a girlfriend. His last known relationship was with the actress Jennifer Syme. They lost their child in 1999, and she died in a car accident in 2001.

Who is Alexandra Grant, Keanu Reeves’ new girlfriend?
Alexandra Grant is a 46-year-old artist from Fairview Park, Ohio, currently residing in Los Angeles. She spent part of her early life in Mexico, France, and Spain, and can speak English, Spanish, and French fluently. She got a Bachelor’s degree in History and Studio Art from Swarthmore College, and in 2000, obtained an MFA in Drawing and Painting.
According to her website, her work focuses on the use of text and language, and asks questions like, “How do the languages we speak and the images we see form how we think and exchange ideas? How can artists and writers work to create and influence culture in an increasingly technology-driven world?”
Grant’s work is shown in several museum collections, such as: the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, the Blanton Museum of Art in Austin, and the Art Gallery of Ontario.
Alexandra Grant and Keanu Reeves
They worked together on Ode to Happiness, both Reeves and Grant’s first published book, which came out in 2011.
In 2014, they worked together in Shadows: A Collaborative Project by Alexandra Grant and Keanu Reeves, published in Germany.
In 2017, they co-founded X Artists’ Books, a small artist book publishing company where they are business partners.
This public appearance confirms their relationship and puts an end to the speculations that began after they were spotted walking out of a West Hollywood sushi restaurant hand in hand.
