Kate Beckinsale finally reveals the story of how Keanu Reeves saved her – ‘absolute legend’
Keanu Reeves, an actor, has one of Hollywood’s most prestigious reputations. He is renowned for his need for privacy, yet he also looks out for others around him. Reeves is renowned for treating the cast and crew on his productions with respect. But lately, actress Kate Beckinsale revealed a story that highlights how long their connection has lasted.
Keanu Reeves and Beckinsale have a long-standing relationship. Beckinsale’s attendance at the Cannes Film Festival this year, including the amfAR charity gala and other events, brought back memories of her debut on the prestigious red carpet.
On the 1993 Cannes red carpet, Keanu Reeves intervened to save her and a possibly awkward situation.
Beckinsale took to Instagram to recount the tale, revealing, “I had bought the bodysuit in the Sock Shop at the airport and when I got in the car to drive to the premiere with Denzel and Pauletta Washington, all the poppers in the crotch popped themselves open and it flipped up like a roller blind.”
When she told Keanu Reeves and Robert Sean Leonard about the accident, they both immediately leapt in to help. She smiled, then acknowledged her quiet terror.
Keanu is committed to thanking and recognising the actors and crew of his films.
He gave personalised Rolex Submariner watches to a four-person stunt squad as a thank you for helping with his most recent movie. Additionally, he made custom jerseys for each member that displayed how many times his character “killed” them in the movie.
Reeves is in a committed relationship with his girlfriend Alexandra Grant in his private life. The couple is renowned for keeping the facts of their personal lives and relationship private. Keanu Reeves recently discussed his satisfaction with his artistic collaborator in an interview.
Asked about his most recent experience of bliss, the John Wick star replied. “A couple of days ago with my honey. We were in bed and we were connected. We were smiling and laughing and giggling. Feeling great. It was just really nice to be together.”
