Users Notice Keanu Reeves, 60, ‘Doesn’t Look Happy’ Holding Hands with Longtime Partner, 51, on Date Night

Keanu Reeves, 60, and Alexandra Grant appeared hand-in-hand for an evening out in London on October 26, looking stylish in recent photos. However, internet users noticed more than their outfits.

For the couple’s night out, Reeves wore a dark pinstriped suit with a bright red scarf and rugged brown boots, blending sophistication with his signature relaxed style. Meanwhile, Grant, 51, donned a black coat embroidered with floral designs, adding her own artistic flair to the outing.

Netizens quickly reacted to the photos. “Totally love them as a couple! 🤍🤍🤍🤍🙏🏼🫶🏼,” a fan gushed. Another raved, “A normal looking couple of the same age. That’s why you are so beautiful ❤️ [sic].” A third stated, “That is so sweet 😍.”

Someone else complimented Reeves, “He is aging like fine wine! Still handsome!! 🥰😍🥰,” while another remarked, “Love this couple, doing their own thing and look happy [sic].”

However, some critics were curious about Reeves’ mood for that evening. “Keanu is lost. 😢😢😢,” a concerned fan observed. Another noted, “He looks like he cried for an hour before he had to do this outing.”

Others noted Grant’s firm grip on Reeves’ hand. “She squeezes poor Keanu’s hand so tight. Why? Keanu is very sad, he doesn’t look happy😢,” a user said, while another expressed the same sentiment.

Amid netizens’ mixed reactions, Reeves and Grant continue to keep a low profile. Their London outing follows recent appearances, including the MotoGP in Germany and a Los Angeles dinner date early this year.

A source previously said that the pair are “very much a normal couple” who “work hard and then enjoy life” together, preferring quiet nights with friends at home.

Actress Jennifer Tilly, a close friend of Grant’s, shared that Reeves and Grant had been “dating for years” before they made headlines. She expressed surprise at the public’s reaction when the couple appeared together at the 2019 Lacma Art + Film Gala.

Tilly revealed to Page Six in March 2020, “It’s really astonishing to me how in the last five months, all of a sudden, she goes to an event with him and everybody goes insane, like, ‘It’s his new girlfriend,’ because she had gone to a lot of events with him.”

In the interview, Tilly described Grant as a “cool, elegant woman—very quiet, very low-key” and considered her a perfect match for Reeves. She admired the couple’s grounded, private relationship, adding, “I think everybody wishes that they had something like that. It’s not a razzle dazzle Hollywood romance.”

Though Tilly has known the couple for a long time, she remains uncertain about their marital future, suggesting that marriage may not suit their “hip and bohemian” lifestyle. “They’re artists,” Tilly said. They’re just going to do what they do.”

In a 2020 British Vogue interview, Grant opened up about valuing privacy and the importance of relationships. When asked about marriage, she laughed and said, “Over a glass of wine… I would love to tell you,” but added, “Love at every level is deeply important to my identity.”

She further reflected, “I do not believe that isolation is the way. There is a period of isolation that I do as a painter, but I deeply value the experience of being in relationships.”

Known for embracing her natural look—including her silver hair, which she’s had since her mid-30s—Grant admitted she’s a “huge believer in choice” when it comes to beauty and confidence.

Acknowledging her unique appearance, Grant humorously noted that, as a 6-foot-1 woman, “fitting in” would require significant changes, such as surgically shortening her legs. Yet, rather than conform, Grant embraces her individuality—a quality her boyfriend appears to share.

Despite mixed public opinions, Grant and Keanu Reeves continue to show a strong bond, proving that love can thrive even under scrutiny.
