Smitten Keanu Reeves holds girlfriend's hand as they arrive in New York

Canadian actor Keanu Reeves looked totally smitten with his girlfriend Alexandra Grant as they held hands at JFK airport in New York City.

The Beirut-born star, 58, looked suave in a laidback outfit while stepping out with his girlfriend, Alexandra, 50.

Looking smitten while holding hands and luggage as they dashed through the busy airport, the loved-up couple cut casual figures as they got papped while going about their business.

The John Wick and The Matrix hunk could be seen rocking a black jacket and trousers, complete with a hat atop his head, looking off-duty with his hair down and framing his face.

Pairing the look with some muted accessories, he donned some brown ankle boots and rocked a charcoal-hued scarf around his neck.

With one hand he clutched onto his girlfriend, while in the other he pulled a suitcase with a bag on top and a backpack on his shoulders.

Alexandra also cut a casual figure, with the American visual artist donning some light wash blue jeans with a navy roll neck top.

She accessorised with similar hued pieces, which included a graphic scarf, some black sunglasses and some black chunky zip-up Chelsea boots.

To keep warm and ward off the chill, Alexandra layered up with a black Gillet-style zip-up vest.

While holding Keanu's hand she also held some luggage, with the talented Ohio-born artist carrying a tote bag and also had a crossbody bag layered over her ensemble.

The seemingly smitten couple made their first public appearance together back in 2019.

But according to Alexandra, the couple had been close since 2011 when she gave Keanu a book that she had written.

In an interview with Vanity Fair in 2020, the artist spoke of the "private gift" she gave the actor.

"The book was made as a surprise, by me, for Keanu, as a private gift. All our friends sitting in the room got the giggles when I gave it to him — they said, 'Please publish it!' So that's how we got into publishing," she gushed to the magazine.

The book in question ended up being Ode to Happiness, which is a grown up picture book and a guide about "climbing out of depression", according to the publication.
