Keanu Reeves sparks engagement rumors with GF Alexandra Grant as she flashes sparkler at Ballerina premiere
While the couple looked loved-up on the red carpet, eagle-eyed fans noticed Alexandra was wearing a diamond ring on her wedding finger - fueling recent speculation that the couple have secretly married.
Back in April, Alexandra, an artist, was seen wearing the same diamond ring with a gold band during her and Keanu's trip to London.
If the couple have secretly tied the knot, it would be Keanu's first marriage, but any grand announcement is unlikely with the fiercely private pair known for keeping their relationship under wraps.
For the big premiere, Alexandra, 52, styled her striking ring with a plunging red dress with a ruffled neckline and glittering metallic heels.
Meanwhile, Keanu, 60, looked smart in a black suit.
Alexandra and Keanu first met at a dinner party in 2009 and collaborated on two art books together before going red-carpet official in 2019.

Ever since going public, the low-key couple have attended an array of public events together, including the recent Sonic The Hedgehog 3 premiere.
During the premiere, Keanu was asked whether he regarded the event as an example of a 'date night' for him and Alexandra.
'I guess it is! Yeah, we got dolled up and it's been very exciting, and just kind of nerve-wracking in the car, but it's really special to be side by side,' he told Entertainment Tonight.
In 2023 Keanu shed some light on his romance with Alexandra.
When he was asked to name his 'last moment of bliss,' he told People: 'A couple of days ago with my honey. We were in bed. We were connected.'
He added: 'We were smiling and laughing and giggling. Feeling great. It was really nice to be together.'
The pair have rarely discussed details of their relationship in public.
Alexandra found herself at the end of an internet frenzy when she and Keanu went public with their relationship at the LACMA Art + Film Gala in early November 2019.
'I think every single person I knew called me in the first week of November, and that's fascinating,' Alexandra told British Vogue a few months later.
When Alexandra was asked in 2020 about the prospect of marriage, she said: 'Love at every level is deeply important to my identity. How's that for dodging the question?'
She added: '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.'
By the time they went official with their romance they had been friends for around a decade and it had been reported that Keanu wanted the relationship out in the open.
They first collaborated in 2011 on Keanu's book Ode To Happiness, with Alexandra providing the illustrations.
The project marked her first book as an artist and his first as a writer.
They worked together again on the actor's 2016 book Shadows, to which Alexandra once again contributed the artwork.
Alexandra is Keanu's first known girlfriend since Jennifer Syme, who died in a car accident in 2001 less than four months after delivering her and Keanu's stillborn baby.

Trump says he ‘had to' pave over White House Rose Garden lawn
Donald Trump has claimed he is receiving "great reviews" for his makeover of the White House Rose Garden, which involved replacing the lawn with a stone patio. He justified the redesign, saying 'we had to do it' as the previous grass area was often wet and muddy, making it unsuitable for its intended purpose. The new patio features white stone, described as matching the White House and designed to reflect heat. Despite Trump's positive assessment, social media users widely criticised the redesign, likening it to a "parking lot" or "concrete jungle" and "devoid of life". The historic Rose Garden, opened in 1913 and enhanced by Jackie Kennedy, now features a layout that pushes its signature rose bushes to the periphery, reminiscent of Trump's Mar-a-Lago property.

Disney princess REFUSES to take picture with theme park guest for shocking reason
A former Disney princess has revealed the shocking moment she refused to take a picture with a theme park guest after he proudly showed off a highly-sexualized tattoo of her character. Katrina, who portrayed Princess Rapunzel during her Disney College Program, took to TikTok to detail the unsettling encounter inside the Town Square Theater. She explained that the male adult guest approached her during a quiet period. 'I was 19 years old,' the content creator began. 'A man came in during our fireworks set... he was the only guest in the room. So it's just this man, the princesses, the photographers and the attendant.' Katrina said the man approached her and asked to show her a tattoo - but, at first, she thought nothing of it. 'A lot of people get Disney tattoos and they want to show you. Totally fine,' she shared. But what he then revealed was anything but innocent. 'He shows me the tattoo on his arm… and it is a risqué - to say the least - photo of Rapunzel,' she said. 'With only her hair covering her bits. And some suggestive adult things going on.' But the Disney princess quickly realized that it was not just the one wild design he had inked on his body. 'This guy's whole body is covered in tattoos like that of the princesses,' she detailed. Next, he asked her for a hug, to which Katrina declined. 'And then he said, "Well, can we take a picture?" And I said, "No. No. None of us are gonna take a picture with you,"' she shared. It was at this point that she broke character and explained the situation to the character attendant. 'I'm like, "You need to get a manager. This guy needs to cover up. None of us need to see photos like that of our character. Or give him a hug. Or don't need the character taking a picture next to that kind of a tattoo,"' Katrina detailed. She described how she felt in the moment: 'Red flag, red flag, sirens going off.' Eventually, a manager at Disney came in to intervene - offering the guest a voucher for clothes to cover up his body art. But he became increasingly disgruntled. 'He was not understanding why we were not so psyched to see him or falling all over him,' Katrina shared. 'I don't know what he thought would happen. I genuinely do not.' Dozens of people in the comments were just as horrified by Katrina's encounter. 'Immediately no. He knew what he was doing, going to the meet and greet when no one else would be there…' a user wrote. 'And in Disneyland, surrounded by children,' someone simply stated. 'Love that there are these rules. Happy he was told the issue. Hate how someone like him didn't see an issue,' another shared. 'Who even agreed to tattoo those, too?! Unbelievable,' a user questioned. 'I would be uncomfortable too, you are correct,' a person affirmed.

Rift review – can a liberal and his white supremacist brother ever see eye to eye?
Families fell out over Brexit. They split over Trump. But few schisms can have been more severe than that of playwright Gabriel Jason Dean and his brother. It is a relationship that inspired this probing two-hander in which a bookish student at the start of a literary career (Blake Stadnik) visits his incarcerated sibling (Matt Monaco), hoping to help with his legal claim for release. As their meetings unfold over years and then decades, one becomes a celebrated champion of liberal values, while the other emerges as a white supremacist. What hope for reconciliation when each brother has views antithetical to the other's? It is a theme that was explored by Chris Thorpe in Confirmation (2014), which described the playwright's real-life attempt to see eye to eye with a Holocaust denier. That play was needling and unsettling in a way this one is not, but what Rift has on its side is the fraternal bond at its heart. With head shaved and swastika tattoo showing beneath his orange jumpsuit, Monaco frightens you with the ferocity of his stare and his air of volatility. In contrast, Stadnik could hardly look prissier with his neat business suit and ethical reading list. Yet these men are not strangers and cannot entirely discount each other. Their childhood history, in particular their repressed memories of abuse, gives them a bond that transcends matters of political difference. Directed with verve and intensity by Ari Laura Kreith for Luna Stage and Richard Jordan Productions, the play is at its most affecting when it reveals the vulnerable boys behind the damaged adults. If there is hope for a polarised culture, this is where it lies. There is humanity and understanding here – joining a far-right brotherhood may be a rational choice if your life depends on it – but Rift lets the audience off lightly by skirting the most awkward questions. At the Traverse, Edinburgh, until 24 August. All our Edinburgh festival reviews
