55-year-old actor Keanu Reeves provoked a wave of comments and reactions this weekend after going to the LACMA Art + Film Gala hand-in-hand with his old business colleague and artist Alexandra Grant. As the couple looked particularly affectionate and interested in each other, fans could not help but congratulate Keanu Reeves for finding his significant someone following decades of solitude after the death of his ex-girlfriend Jennifer Syme in 2001, which was preceded by the stillbirth of their daughter Ave.
Some Twitter users, however, were surprised by Reeves’ unusual choice of romantic partner, despite his high status among the world’s most prominent celebrities, hinting at Grant’s apparent nonconformity to Hollywood standards and her visible age.
But most concluded that it did not matter after all, as the couple, who have previously collaborated on two books together, appeared to be happy and enjoying each other’s company.
