A source previously
said
that the pair are “very much a normal couple” who “work hard and then enjoy life” together, preferring quiet nights with friends at home.
Actress Jennifer Tilly, a close friend of Grant’s,
shared
that Reeves and Grant had been “dating for years” before they made headlines. She expressed surprise at the public’s reaction when the couple appeared together at the 2019 Lacma Art + Film Gala.

Tilly
revealed
to Page Six in March 2020, “It’s really astonishing to me how in the last five months, all of a sudden, she goes to an event with him and everybody goes insane, like, ‘It’s his new girlfriend,’ because she had gone to a lot of events with him.”

In the interview, Tilly
described
Grant as a “cool, elegant womanâvery quiet, very low-key” and considered her a perfect match for Reeves. She
admired
the couple’s grounded, private relationship, adding, “I think everybody wishes that they had something like that. It’s not a razzle dazzle Hollywood romance.”

Though Tilly has known the couple for a long time, she remains uncertain about their marital future,
suggesting
that marriage may not suit their “hip and bohemian” lifestyle. “They’re artists,” Tilly
said
. They’re just going to do what they do.”

In a 2020 British Vogue interview, Grant opened up about valuing privacy and the importance of relationships. When asked about marriage, she laughed and
said
, “Over a glass of wine⊠I would love to tell you,” but
added
, “Love at every level is deeply important to my identity.”
She further
reflected
, “I do not believe that isolation is the way. There is a period of isolation that I do as a painter, but I deeply value the experience of being in relationships.”

Acknowledging her unique appearance, Grant humorously
noted
that, as a 6-foot-1 woman, “fitting in” would require significant changes, such as surgically shortening her legs. Yet, rather than conform, Grant embraces her individualityâa quality her boyfriend appears to share.
