Keanu Reeves Sets the Record Straight on Marriage Speculations, Shares Red Carpet Moment with Alexandra Grant

Keanu Reeves appears unfazed by the recent buzz surrounding rumors that he has secretly wed his girlfriend, Alexandra Grant.

Speaking at the New York City premiere of his new film, Good Fortune, on October 13, the 61-year-old actor addressed the ongoing speculation in an interview with E! News. “This isn’t the first time I’ve heard those rumors,” Reeves commented.

He went on to clarify, “We’ve been together for quite a while now.” Despite the chatter, Reeves seemed to appreciate the sentiment behind the rumors. “The idea of a wedding is nice,” he remarked, adding, “A lot of kind messages were sent our way, but Alexandra handled it beautifully by saying, ‘Thank you, but here’s the truth of the matter.’”

Reeves and Grant have been a couple since they publicly acknowledged their relationship in 2019. However, their connection dates back further, as they initially met at a dinner party in 2009. Their professional collaboration began shortly thereafter, leading to several joint projects, including Reeves’s books. The duo has clearly developed a strong bond over the years.

Indeed, both reps for Reeves and Grant, 52, herself shut down rumors of marriage that first surfaced in September.

“It is not true,” Reeves’ representative said in a statement to E! News on September 22. “They are not married.”

Two days later, Grant cleared up the rumors while sharing a sweet Instagram photo of her and Reeves locking lips.

“This is a real photo. Not an engagement photo or an AI wedding announcement… simply a kiss! (Albeit maybe the moment right before or after it… given the slightly goofy expressions on our faces!) We’re at Roden Crater, and Keanu and Gard had just finished interviewing James Turrell for Visionaries,” the visual artist captioned the post.

She continued, “I’m sharing it here to say thank you to everyone for the congratulations on our wedding. Except we didn’t get married. Good news is much needed these days, but it’s still fake news, so be careful out there! So, here’s a bit of real happiness!”

While Reeves and Grant are not in a hurry to walk down the aisle, they did hit the red carpet Monday night for the premiere of Good Fortune, Reeves’ new movie directed by comedian Aziz Ansari.

The couple held hands and packed on the PDA as they shared a kiss on the red carpet during Monday’s event at the AMC Lincoln Square Theater.

The Matrix actor was dapper in a sleek brown suit, while Grant looked a vision in a sapphire-colored sleeveless dress with silver jewelry detailing around the neckline.

The couple’s latest outing comes just two weeks after they also appeared loved up on the red carpet outside the Hudson Theatre in New York City on the opening night of Reeves’ new play, Waiting for Godot. Reeves and Grant held hands as they posed for photos on that occasion.

Reeves and Grant first met in 2009. They went public with their romance in 2019 when Grant attended the LACMA Art + Film Gala with the actor in November that year.

The couple have largely kept their relationship private, however, Grant recently paid tribute to her man with a romantic Instagram post to mark his 61st birthday in September.

“Thank you to everyone for sending over sweet wishes for Keanu’s birthday yesterday… he was well-celebrated!” she wrote. “As many of you know, Keanu isn’t on any social media platforms and doesn’t see posts or memes unless someone who is shows him.”

“And to Keanu – who saw this post as a draft! – I am so grateful for your love and partnership. Now back to painting! xo,” she added.
