Alexandra Grant shared their date in a way that felt like a holiday scene. On Instagram, she posted photos and a short video of her and Keanu Reeves at the Rockefeller Center ice rink, skating carefully, holding hands, and kissing in front of the glowing Christmas tree. Since they keep things private, the post quickly took off online.
A New York date night on ice
According to PEOPLE, Grant posted the images on Tuesday, January 13, along with details about how the evening came together. “Last Monday, after the run of Waiting for Godot, Keanu invited me on a date in New York City,” she wrote. The outing followed Reeves’ Broadway debut, where he starred opposite Alex Winter in a revival of Samuel Beckett’s ‘Waiting for Godot’, which closed on January 4.In the video, the couple skated slowly across the rink, gripping each other’s hands and wobbling as the camera circled them. Grant also thanked those who made the night special. “You made us feel right at home, cheering us on, and offering us hot cocoa and pompom hats,” she added. “Thank you, too, to the folks behind the scenes who made this special night happen.”
A message of connection and support
Grant used the post to highlight the larger skating community and to cheer on future athletes. She gave a nod to the upcoming Milan Winter Olympics and wrote, “And cheers to the next rocking generation of skaters and Olympians! We’re inspired by how you’re choosing to train and eat on your terms, what music you prefer, your awesome style choices, finding joy in a sport that requires so many hours of practice to perfect.”She also shared a quote credited to Alysa Liu. “Connections with people. That’s the most important thing in life. It overrides everything.” Grant echoed the sentiment, adding, “always yes to connecting! Yes to joy, yes to getting out there even when beyond tired, yes to trying something new, yes to doing it your way, and staying open to surprise!”Reeves and Grant have been linked since 2011 and went public with their relationship in 2019. They co-founded X Artists Books in 2017. PEOPLE previously reported that Reeves keeps his private life low-key, though he has attended select red carpet events with Grant, including for his June 2025 film ‘From the World of John Wick: Ballerina’. Reeves is next set to appear in Jonah Hill’s ‘Outcome’, which also stars Hill and Cameron Diaz.
