Hollywood’s beloved “nice guy” Keanu Reeves has just stepped into his most important role yet — dad to newborn twins with long-time partner Alexandra Grant. And insiders say the John Wick star is “absolutely glowing” as he embraces fatherhood for the very first time at age 60.
The couple reportedly welcomed a boy and a girl earlier this month in a private Los Angeles hospital, keeping the joyous news under wraps until close friends began sharing congratulations online.
“He’s over the moon,” a close friend told People. “Keanu has achieved so much in his career, but he says nothing compares to this. He keeps telling everyone, ‘I just want them to grow up kind.’”
A Dream Years in the Making
Sources say Keanu and Alexandra had been talking about starting a family for years but wanted to wait until their relationship felt “unshakable.” The couple, known for keeping their private life fiercely guarded, are said to be “nesting” at their home, taking turns with feedings and cherishing quiet moments away from Hollywood’s glare.
Keanu’s Promise as a Father
According to one insider, Keanu has already made a heartfelt vow:
“He wants them to grow up to be compassionate, humble, and grounded — no matter how famous their father is. He doesn’t care if they become actors or not, as long as they’re good people.”
Friends say the actor’s own challenging childhood has made him determined to give his twins a stable, loving home.
Fans Overjoyed
Social media exploded with love for the couple after the news broke, with many praising Keanu’s reputation as one of the “kindest men in Hollywood.”
One fan wrote: “If anyone deserves happiness, it’s Keanu. Those kids hit the jackpot.”
Will the famously private couple share a first family photo, or will they keep their twins out of the spotlight entirely?
For now, Keanu’s fans are simply celebrating — because in a world of action heroes, this might just be his most beautiful role yet.
