The Matrix star also happens to be a big fan of motorcycles – both when it comes to riding them and creating them. Reeves loves the vehicles so much that he’s amassed a pretty extensive collection as time has passed. Grant has also begun enjoying riding on motorcycles with Keanu now that they are dating.
That being said, any woman who wants to go out with the actor probably needs to have an appreciation of his passions.
Their Age Difference
When news of their relationship first came to light, people remarked with glee that they looked as though they were approximately the same age. Not only did this shocker maintain the public’s view of Reeves as a man who has renounced the typical ways of A-list celebs.
It has also started a debate about why it’s so unusual for us to see older male movie stars dating age-appropriate women. Reeves is older than Grant by nine years; he was born in 1964 and she was born in 1973.
Hollywood Relationships
Their relationship sparked no small measure of comment about Hollywood double standards and how women are quickly seen as “past their prime.” Age-appropriate relationships in Hollywood are so rare that they’ve become topics of intrigue and fascination.
While the Reeves-Grant relationship is a “refreshing” one, Hollywood has conditioned us to view a 55-year-old man and a 46-year-old woman as the same age.
A Healthy Relationship
It would seem that their relationship flew under the radar for a little while. After all, the actor isn't active on social media, so he hasn't posted any pics of them together. Grant has never shared anything online about her boyfriend, either.
And although people who saw the couple in a social setting noticed that they were very fond of each other, it took some time for the media to realize that they were more than friends. We can look up to Reeves and Grant as an excellent example of a healthy Hollywood relationship.
Reeves' Mother
At first, people thought Grant was Reeves’ mother. Unremarkably, Grant faced plenty of ageism when news got out that she and Reeves were dating. And sometimes, while this was accidental, it was no less insensitive.
Once the actor took his mother, Patricia Taylor, to the Oscars in 2020, some photo captions misidentified his parent, claiming that she was his partner.
