Keanu Reeves and girlfriend Alexandra Grant made a rare appearance together at the premiere of Sonic the Hedgehog 3.
The low-key couple tend to stay out of the spotlight, but on Monday, December 16, they hit the red carpet for the film, in which Reeves, 60, plays Shadow the Hedgehog. The actor has dated Grant, 51, for some seven years.
“They see themselves as soulmates,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly earlier this year, discussing Reeves’ dynamic with the visual artist.
According to the insider, the twosome are “shy by nature so there’s no overintensity or jealousy on either side. Alexandra appreciates that Keanu is a total gentleman who encourages her to pursue her passions, while he says she’s one of the kindest people he’s ever met.”
Keanu Reeves and girlfriend Alexandra Grant are in a great place despite keeping their romance largely out of the public eye. “They see themselves as soulmates,” a source exclusively reveals in the newest issue of Us Weekly about Reeves and Grant’s dynamic.

Reeves and Grant originally met at a dinner party in 2009. They went on to collaborate on Reeves’ books Ode to Happiness and Shadows and opened their own publishing company, X Artists Books.
“The book was made as a surprise, by me, for Keanu, as a private gift,” Grant told British Vogue of Ode to Happiness in 2020. “All our friends sitting in the room got the giggles when I gave it to him — they said, ‘Please publish it!’ So that’s how we got into publishing.”

After developing a friendship, Reeves and Grant took their relationship to the next level. They were public with their romance in November 2019, which is when a second source told Us that the pair were “dating for years” and “it wasn’t a secret.”
Grant recently shed insight into her romance with Reeves when she spoke about their shared interest in art.
Keanu Reeves and his long-time girlfriend, Alexandra Grant, have been going strong since they went public with their relationship in 2019, but their love connection didn’t start right away. The pair formed a professional connection after meeting at a dinner party in 2009, going on to collaborate on several projects like Reeve’s books Ode to […]
“My work is much more of a private performance, but I have a text that I interpret in the studio into a painting, into an object,” Grant explained to People in September 2023. “He takes the text in private and then turns it into a performance in public. … There’s a relationship. We’re both, at the heart, readers and researchers. We both care about people and we care about characters.”
Another source told Us in November 2023 that Reeves and Grant are “typically homebodies” who prefer “quiet nights alone or small get-togethers” with their friends.
“Things are great between them. They’re very happy together,” the source shared, noting that the pair make an “amazing” match. “[They are] both very relaxed and casual by nature.”
While Reeves has never married, his friend Winona Ryder has insisted that she and Reeves tied the knot while filming their characters’ wedding for Bram Stoker’s Dracula, the 1992 movie directed by Francis Ford Coppola.
Reeves later told Esquire in November 2021, “Winona says we are. Coppola says we are. So, I guess we’re married under the eyes of God.”
