Keanu Reeves recently opened up about his relationship with his girlfriend Alexandra Grant, revealing who holds the creative edge.
Conversing with PEOPLE alongside Gard Hollinger, the 60-year-old actor and musician revealed that Grant is the most creative “for sure” if she is compared with him.
For the unversed, the Matrix actor and the 51-year-old Grant, the visual artist, have known each other since 2011.
That year, they worked on a book together called Ode to Happiness, as Reeves wrote the text while Grant made the drawings.
In 2017, they started a small book company called X Artists Books. The company’s website says it makes “thoughtful, high-quality, artist-centered books.”
It also says, “Our books are works of art; portals to imagined worlds; treasured companions; the fabric of a community.”
However, after all the years of collaboration, Reeves and Grant became a couple in 2019.
Notably, in 2023, she told the same outlet that the John Wick star has a “positive impact” on her.
Grant recalled, "I had a studio visit a few years ago, and this very kind, very high-level person said, 'I can see that your work has gotten happier.’ That's real. We're all human beings. We're animals. We're expressing from where we are. I think the work is happier.”
"He's such an inspiration to me. He's so creative; he's so kind. He works so hard,” she noted, speaking highly of Reeves at that time.
