Alexandra Grant has recently shed light on her decision to address speculation about her relationship with Keanu Reeves, emphasising that the pair are not married, despite frequent congratulations from fans. The 52-year-old artist and the 61-year-old actor have been together for seven years, yet the swirling rumours of their marital status compelled Grant to take action.

In a humorous yet candid reflection, Grant recalled her frustration as the repeated inquiries about their relationship status became overwhelming. “I couldn’t take it anymore!” she admitted with a laugh. Her solution was to post on social media, aiming to put a definitive end to the misconceptions.
The couple’s relationship became a topic of public interest after they first appeared together at the LACMA Art + Film Gala in November 2019. Over the years, they have often seen their bond described as deeply affectionate and supportive. However, the persistent chatter about their potential marriage prompted Grant to clarify their status.
In her Instagram post from September of last year, she shared a sweet moment between the two, stating, “This is a real photo. Not an engagement photo or an AI wedding announcement… simply a kiss!” Grant was keen to express the authenticity of their relationship while dispelling the marriage speculation.
“Thank you so much, and we really love each other, but we’re not married,” Grant explained regarding the motivation behind her public statement. “How many times can you say that in a day?” Her intent was to share the truth and to stop the ongoing congratulatory messages that had become commonplace.
The artist’s post further reinforces her message by noting that while good news is welcome in current times, it is crucial to distinguish fact from fiction. “Good news is much needed these days, but it’s still fake news, so be careful out there!” she remarked. Grant’s plea for honesty was met with understanding, leading to a noticeable decrease in speculation following her announcement.
Following her clarification, Grant has focused on her professional endeavours, including her newly announced comic book series titled *Nano*, which is set to be released in a three-part format. She expressed appreciation for the support from her fans as well as the attention surrounding her latest creative project.
The couple’s relationship had developed off the radar before making their public debut. Since then, they have often been spotted together at various events, with Reeves reportedly expressing his joy in having Grant by his side. A source previously shared, “Keanu wants to openly share his life with her. He is extremely happy and grateful to have Alex in his life.”
In recent months, both Reeves and Grant have continued to work on their individual projects while maintaining a strong partnership. With the clarity brought about by Grant’s post, the duo seems determined to enjoy their relationship away from the prying eyes of speculation and rumour.
As the couple navigates their relationship, they continue to foster an atmosphere of mutual respect and care. In a world where celebrity relationships often face relentless scrutiny, Grant’s approach serves as a reminder of the importance of honest communication and maintaining boundaries, even in the spotlight.
