Keanu Reeves Proposed to Alexandra Grant at 13,000 Feet — Inside the Private Jet Vow That Made U.S. History
LOS ANGELES — Hollywood icon Keanu Reeves has never done anything the traditional way — and his recent engagement to longtime partner Alexandra Grant just proved it again. In an unprecedented gesture that stunned even those closest to him, Reeves proposed at 13,000 feet in the air aboard a private jet — and read his wedding vows mid-flight in a moment described as “cinematic, spiritual, and completely Keanu.”
According to sources close to the couple, the actor rented an entire Gulfstream jet for a sunrise flight above the California coast. Only a flight attendant and the pilot were on board — along with a handwritten letter Reeves had sealed for Grant five years ago and told her never to open unless “they were truly ready.”
“It was more than a proposal. It was a promise written in the clouds,” one friend told Variety. “No one in America — or anywhere — has ever done something like this.”
At precisely 13,000 feet, Reeves is said to have unbuckled his seatbelt, walked toward Alexandra with a vintage ring in his hand, and began reading vows he wrote during filming for John Wick: Chapter 4.
“I don’t need land beneath me to feel grounded with you,” he reportedly said. “Even in the sky, I’ve never felt more certain.”
Grant, overwhelmed, said yes without hesitation — and they toasted with chamomile tea instead of champagne.
The moment was so private that not even their families knew until they landed. Reeves later joked to friends: “If she didn’t say yes, I might’ve jumped.”
🛩️ A First in Hollywood?
While celebrities have proposed in castles, stadiums, and even underwater, a mid-air vow ceremony inside a private jet — complete with personalized vows — marks a first in American celebrity history.
The couple has not yet confirmed a wedding date, but insiders say the event will be “just as intentional, just as breathtaking, and just as impossible to track.”
