Los Angeles — Alexandra Grant, the artist and longtime partner of actor Keanu Reeves, took to social media this week to put an end to persistent rumours that the couple had quietly tied the knot.
Grant posted an intimate photo of her and Reeves sharing a kiss at James Turrell’s Roden Crater and used the caption to correct the record: the image is “real” but “not an engagement photo or an AI wedding announcement… simply a kiss.” She thanked well-wishers while warning followers not to trust unverified reports, adding plainly, “we didn’t get married.”
The Instagram post followed a statement from Reeves’s publicist earlier this week, who told E! News that reports of a secret ceremony were false: “It is not true. They are not married.” The rumours appear to have gained traction after tabloid reports — including one in Radar Online — suggested the pair had wed during a private trip to Europe.
Grant and Reeves have long mixed creative collaboration with privacy. The two first worked together professionally on books and later went public as a couple in 2019; Grant has previously spoken about how their shared artistic pursuits and mutual independence shape the relationship. The Roden Crater photo came after Reeves interviewed Turrell for his Roku docuseries Visionaries, according to coverage of the outing.
The episode is a reminder of how quickly gossip can circulate on social platforms and be amplified by tabloid coverage. Grant’s measured response — equal parts gratitude and correction — sought both to thank those offering congratulations and to flag the pitfalls of believing sensational claims without verification.
