Keanu Reeves and Alexandra Grant spent a delightful day at the races in Germany! On Sunday, July 7, the actor and motorcycle enthusiast, 59, and his visual artist girlfriend, 51, attended the final day of the MotoGP Liqui Moly Motorrad Grand Prix Deutschland. The couple even had the honor of waving the checkered flag together at the Sachsenring Circuit in Hohenstein-Ernstthal.
The couple, known for being selective about their public appearances, were all smiles as they each held the flag with one hand. It was a fitting outing for Reeves, who has a long-standing passion for motorcycles and even owns a custom motorcycle company, ARCH. A source recently told PEOPLE, “Motorcycles are a huge part of his life,” adding that Grant “never minded” his infatuation with the vehicles. “She has a very calm personality and just wants him to be happy,” the insider explained.
To watch the motorbike races with his longtime love, Reeves wore an all-denim look. Grant, meanwhile, also rocked jeans but paired them with a light blue sweater and a pair of chunky sunglasses. The Speed star and the artist, who started off as friends and artistic collaborators before going public with their relationship in 2019, prefer to keep things low-key. They often dedicate their nights to art or close friends, a source recently told PEOPLE. “They’re often invited to events but only attend ones that truly matter to them,” they said. “They’re both homebodies. They’d much rather entertain at home. They often have friends over for dinner. It’s always the best.”
In March, a source told PEOPLE that the John Wick star is “very happy” with Grant. “This is the most fun and positive relationship that Keanu has ever been in,” the source noted, adding that the visual artist is “a rare gem” that “everyone just loves.” “She is adorable, sweet, caring, and funny. She has her own life and career but is also very supportive of Keanu’s,” they added. “When he films on location, she travels with him. When he films locally, she often visits the set.”
Last year, Grant opened up about her bond with Reeves, both romantic and creative. “The good news about falling in love as an adult is that I had built my own career by the time that my relationship had begun,” she told PEOPLE at the 2023 Los Angeles Beverly Arts Icon Awards. “What I love about Keanu and our exchange is that we’re pushing each other to build new roads,” she later noted. “Seeing the other person’s problem-solving is inspiring, like, ‘Oh, well, okay, this one, that’s a cul-de-sac. How do I try this other thing?'”
“He’s such an inspiration to me,” Grant added. “He’s so creative, he’s so kind. He works so hard.” Reeves has also spoken with PEOPLE about Grant, revealing in early 2023 that his last moment of bliss was “a couple of days ago with my honey.” “We were in bed. We were connected. We were smiling and laughing and giggling. Feeling great,” he recalled, adding that “it was just really nice to be together.”
Keanu Reeves and Alexandra Grant made a rare appearance at the Liqui Moly Motorrad Grand Prix Deutschland on Sunday in Hohenstein-Ernstthal, Germany. The 59-year-old John Wick star and his 51-year-old visual artist girlfriend were spotted walking the Sachsenring Circuit while gleefully smiling and holding hands. Reeves donned a denim jacket and jeans, while Grant wore a sleek blue sweater and black slacks to enjoy an afternoon of racing. At one point in the day, the lovebirds even hopped on the back of a bike and went for a ride, smiling as they spent the day in each other’s company. They also were pictured waving the starting flag for one event and laughing.
The outing comes months after the couple, who have been dating since 2011, made their last appearance in April at the 2024 MOCA (Museum of Contemporary Art) Gala in Los Angeles. Reeves and Grant adorably shared a kiss before heading into the event together. Before that, the pair were joined at the hip as they attended the 2023 LACMA Art+Film Gala in November. Reeves’ Bill & Ted co-star, Alex Winter, agreed the pair make a cute couple when he spoke to ET in 2023, however, mum was the word when it came to his friend’s love life. “I’m not touching that,” Winter joked at the time.
Before that, though, Reeves spoke to People for their “One Last Thing” interview and sweetly nodded to his artist girlfriend when asked about his last moment of bliss. “A couple of days ago with my honey,” the Speed Star said in March 2023. “We were in bed. We were connected. We were smiling and laughing and giggling. Feeling great.” “It was just really nice to be together,” Reeves added.
Keanu Reeves was recently spotted with his rarely-seen girlfriend, Alexandra Grant, at the Moto GP Sachsenring in Germany. The couple, who have kept their relationship largely out of the public eye, appeared relaxed and content as they enjoyed the event together. The 59-year-old actor showcased his natural look, with his beard showing patches of gray, a testament to his effortless charm and timeless appeal. Keanu was dressed casually in a denim jacket, a gray shirt, and jeans, completing his laid-back ensemble with a lanyard around his neck. His trademark brown hair was slightly tousled, adding to his ruggedly handsome appearance.
By his side, holding hands, was the talented artist Alexandra Grant. The 51-year-old looked chic in a blue shirt paired with black dress pants. She accessorized her look with sunglasses and bracelets, embodying a sophisticated yet understated elegance. The Moto GP Sachsenring, Germany’s premier motorcycle grand prix, provided the perfect backdrop for the couple’s rare public outing. Keanu and Alexandra have been dating for several years, yet they have managed to maintain a low profile, rarely making public appearances together.
Alexandra Grant, born on April 4, 1973, in Fairview Park, Ohio, is a celebrated artist, sculptor, and painter. Her upbringing was enriched by her experiences living in Mexico, France, and Spain, which deeply influenced her artistic journey. Rumors of their relationship began circulating in 2019, and the couple made their red carpet debut at the LACMA Art + Film Gala presented by Gucci in November of that year. In February 2020, actress Jennifer Tilly, a close friend of Alexandra, revealed to Page Six that the couple had actually been together much longer than the public realized. “I remember a couple of years ago, about a year and a half ago, [Alexandra] said, ‘Keanu Reeves is my boyfriend,’ and I’m like, ‘Wait. What? What? What?'” Jennifer shared. She expressed her astonishment at the sudden media frenzy, noting, “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. It’s just suddenly surfaced that he’s been dating her for several years.”
The couple’s rare public appearances continue to captivate fans. Earlier this year, in April, Keanu and Alexandra attended the Museum of Contemporary Art Gala in Los Angeles, California. Keanu looked dapper in a navy blue suit and a matching scarf, with his hair neatly combed and styled, contrasting with his more casual look at the Moto GP. Alexandra, meanwhile, dazzled in a spaghetti-strap teal gown, highlighting her graceful and artistic style.
In September, Grant gushed about how Reeves inspires her creatively during an appearance at the Los Angeles Beverly Arts Icon Awards. “He’s so creative, he’s so kind. He works so hard,” she told People magazine at the time. The mixed-media artist also shared how her relationship with Reeves has affected her career, noting that a friend told her years ago that her “work has gotten happier.” “That’s real. We’re all human beings. We’re animals,” Grant said. “We’re expressing from where we are and certainly feeling happier. I think the work is happier.”
