Keanu Reeves goes public with first ‘girlfriend’ in decades as he holds hands and shares loving smiles with Alexandra Grant at film event

For years, actor Keanu Reeves has held his romantic cards close to his chest.

But the 55-year-old John Wick star has made a very open statement concerning the seriousness of his relationship with Alexandra Grant, 46.

The Matrix actor, who has been avoiding public displays of romance during his 35-year-long career, held hands with the artist at the LACMA Art+ film event presented by Gucci in Los Angeles last weekend.

The sweet couple posed for the cameras, confirming their relationship.

Keanu was elegantly dressed in black and kept it edgy with workman boots and a beard.

Alexandra – who he wrote the books Shadows and Ode To Happiness with – looked stylish in a long blue sleeveless gown.

The Swathmore College graduate smiled lovingly at the Bill and Ted star as they entered the gallery, which exhibits some of her work in public collections.

The couple has confirmed the rumors of their relationship after being seen walking hand in hand as they leave a West Hollywood sushi bar.

For much of the 90s, his partner was actress Jennifer Syme.

Keanu and Jenniffer tragically lost their baby girl Ava after she was born prematurely (one month early).

Back in 2001, Jennifer had driven her 1999 Grand Cherokee into a row of parked cars in LA; she died on the spot. She was just 28-years-old.

Keanu has enjoyed a resurrection of his professional career since John Wick and has his schedule filled with new projects, including the new Matrix film.
