He was expelled from art school for bad behavior. In addition, the boy suffered from dyslexia (reading dysfunction), which made learning difficult.

Keanu Reeves has never been officially married, although the tabloids often wrote about the actor's numerous novels and love affairs. Perhaps the tragic end of the first serious relationship influenced his entire future life. Keanu Reeves met his sister's girlfriend Jennifer Syme in 1989. It was love at first sight. As an aspiring actress, the girl could not believe that Reeves, who already had fame, would somehow be interested in her. But a whirlwind romance began, the fruit of which, after 10 years of living together, was Jennifer's pregnancy.

The happiness of motherhood and fatherhood was not destined to come true. The child died in the womb a month before birth. Keanu never made an official marriage proposal to Jennifer. The girl soon died in Los Angeles in a terrible car accident. After the loss of her unborn daughter, the actor's girlfriend tried to drown out the grief with drugs and alcohol. In this state, she was driving back from one of the many parties. Having crashed into a group of cars at high speed, the girl died on the spot.

Subsequently, after the tragedy, Reeves made a small social film about how it is necessary to wear seat belts while driving a car. All that happened left a deep mark on the soul of the actor for many years. If he had relationships with women, he never considered them in terms of starting a family. He was credited with novels with famous actresses, models and singers. But the actor himself never spoke about the details of his personal life. He leaves all questions about his beloved and the deceased child without answers and comments.

Keanu Reeves with the girl Claire Forlani, an actress and a beauty, found peace of mind for a while and again, according to him, believed in love and true feelings. He even decided on drastic changes in his life. Until 2003, when he bought a house in Hollywood, Keanu Reeves lived in rented apartments and houses. For many years he rented an apartment in the Chateau Marmont hotel in California. Having struck up a relationship with Claire, he acquired his own home. Many prophesied that Reeves would create a family. But the miracle did not happen. He preferred motorcycles to family ties.

Keanu Reeves, already a mature 43-year-old man, was carried away and passionately courted a 20-year-old girl named Holly Meyers-Shyer, the daughter of a famous screenwriter. He did not hide his interest and passion for her. However, the wedding did not end there. The relationship was over a year later.

Shape options

Often, fans and admirers of famous people are interested in the personal data of their idols. They are interested in celebrity wives, children, extramarital affairs, as well as height, weight and shoe size. Keanu Reeves is no exception. Many are interested in the intimate details of his life.

Growth

Different sources on the Internet give different figures characterizing the growth of Keanu Reeves. The artist himself named the figure 6 feet. This means - 182, 88 cm. There is a version that at a younger age the actor's height was 186 cm. But after undergoing numerous operations after accidents (some of them were with damage to the spine and internal organs), he lost several centimeters. The first accident he got into was in 1988. Several accidents happened in 1997. Reeves was fond of motorcycles and loved to ride at crazy speeds.

After these incidents, during the operations, several ribs were removed, replacing them with plates. Perhaps it is for these reasons that the actor's growth has become smaller.

Weight

Keanu Reeves is a slender man throughout his life. It currently weighs 76 kg. All viewers and fans know him always slender. But there was a small period in the life of the actor when he gained extra weight. Perhaps the reason for this was the numerous injuries and operations he underwent. There are photographs of 2013 in China, where the actor can only be recognized by his slanting eyes and hairstyle. In those days, there was a figure on the Internet characterizing Keanu's weight at both 85 and 90 kg. However, this was only a short period of time. Soon, the actor again appeared before the audience in his excellent form.

He did not become an ardent vegetarian, but adheres to the principles of proper and healthy nutrition. A healthy lifestyle and vegetarianism in Hollywood have long been a sign of good form and are considered prestigious. Many of the Dream Factory stars have different explanations for their commitment to these trends. Keanu Reeves became one of those who declared himself an animal protector. He has quite substantial fees, but leads a modest, almost ascetic lifestyle. Reeves is a nominee in one of the vegetarian beauty contests.

Sizes of clothes and shoes

In order to have at least some idea of ​​the parameters of the artist's figure, you can correlate some of the standards that are used in practice when determining the size of clothing for men:

Many sources on the Internet give different numbers when talking about the size of Keanu Reeves shoes: from 10 to 13 (American), which corresponds to 40 to 44 Russian. There is information that the actor has been suffering from flat feet since childhood and therefore wears orthopedic shoes. It was also noticed that he prefers the same shoe models, without changing his preferences in different years of his life.

Appearance

Unlike many actors, Keanu Reeves did not change his hair color, which was always very thick. Often the length and patterns of haircuts changed, but not the color. The actor is more dark brown-haired than dark-haired. There were times when he wore a bob - in his younger years, cut his hair very short - during the 1st season of "The Matrix" and starred with a medium length hair in the movie "On the Crest of the Wave". Currently, the actor wears a multi-stage long haircut "cascade", which looks very presentable with the thickness of his hair. In the past few years, Keanu Reeves has consistently worn a beard.

He inherited the dark brown eye color from his mother and father, a Hawaiian.

How has changed over the years

At 17, Keanu Reeves looked like a pink-cheeked, smiling young man with short hair and slanting brown eyes. In 1986, when he was 22 years old, in the film "Young Blood" outwardly it is already a different person: he has long hair, pointed features. In 1988 and 1991. in his roles in Last Night and On the Crest of the Wave, Reeves already looks like a more mature and serious young man. The haircut has become shorter and the look is harder. In 1994, 1997 and 2003. serious roles in the films "Speed", "Devil's Advocate" and "The Matrix: Revolution" seemed to have left an imprint on Keanu Reeves' appearance. He has a short haircut and slick back hair.

The look became more alert and sharp. Perhaps personal problems in life were reflected in the actor's appearance. In the 2008 movie Street Kings, Keanu doesn't look as skinny as usual, but it's still the same short hair and dark brown eyes. In 2013, 2017 and 2018 in the films 47 Ronin, John Wick and How to Marry a Bachelor, the actor is already thinner than usual. Long straight hair, mustache and beard are always present in his appearance. However, the actor appeared at the Cannes festival in 2013 replenished, beardless and unkempt, in old jeans and an unkempt jacket. Everyone present noticed that he had a double chin and a rounded belly.

At the festival, he was supposed to present his first directorial work - a film - "Master Tai Chi". Keanu Reeves with a girl named Anna Skidanova in the photo in the summer of 2013 does not look the best, even with a smile on his rounded face. This was the first and last time he was seen. The actor quickly returned to his traditionally fit shape. Currently, almost nothing has changed in Keanu Reeves' appearance. Only wrinkles appeared on the face, fatigue in the eyes and gray hair in the beard.

Plastic surgery

Numerous rumors on the Internet at one time claimed that Keanu Reeves always looks the same after turning 30, that he does not age. It should be remembered that he has Hawaiian roots on his father, who, in turn, was also of Chinese blood. It is well known that Asians do not show external signs of aging for a very long time. And the actor inherited this trait. After his trip to China in 2013, many noticed Keanu's too smooth forehead. Rumors spread that he had injected Botox. Reeves himself never confirmed or refuted them, as well as those that said that he was doing plastic.

Was it necessary for a person whom nature has endowed with a good figure and the ability to stay young for a long time. Keanu Reeves with a girl named Alexandra Grant in the 2019 photo looks a little older than they are used to seeing him. His new chosen one is 46 years old, and she is 9 years younger than him. However, thanks to his constitution and genes, he still looks younger than his years. Perhaps the gray hair color of the new darling of the actor does not make the age difference noticeable.

How to keep fit

Keanu Reeves has been in excellent physical shape almost all his life. As a child, he was seriously involved in hockey. But after a serious injury, he had to give up his dream of becoming an Olympic champion.

Later, on the set of some films, he needed skills in sports:

• After starring in the movie "On the Crest of a Wave", the artist began to surf.
• After the painting "Much Ado About Nothing" - equestrian sports.
• On the set of his film "Master Tai Chi" - kung fu.
  
• While acting in the movie "47 Ronin", he learned karate techniques and mastered the use of a katana (samurai sword).

In addition, Keanu Reeves prefers vegetarian dishes and proper nutrition, although sometimes he allows himself to eat "street" food.

Photoshoot

In 2019, Keanu Reeves took part for the first time in a photo shoot for the monthly men's glossy glamorous magazine GQ. It is one of the oldest "men's" magazines, which began to be published in 1957. It contains a lot of materials about business, success stories of famous people, sports and travel, cars and women, as well as fashion and style. All photos with Keanu Reeves are black and white. But this did not diminish the chic and brilliance of what the famous Hollywood actor demonstrated on them. All pictures became a kind of fashion show in clothes and accessories of an imposing slender man.

The artist paraded in glasses, shoes for different seasons, stylish watches, belts, coats, raincoats, jackets, suits and ties. It looks very harmonious in black and white photos. New events in the life of Keanu Reeves inspire hope that soon there will be a photo of him with a girl whom he will introduce to society as his wife.
