Once the brightest star on the Hollywood silver screen, Keanu Reeves’ life was never bathed in glory. On the contrary, the actor from the movie “Matrix” even had to experience the pain of death. go dearest ones.
The sadness in Keanu Reeves’ life began when he was a child. His father abandoned him at the age of three and his mother remarried many times. Keanu Reeves followed suit and had to constantly move house. The actor himself once admitted that he had a childhood of “praying for nothing, praying for nothing”.
And that also makes it difficult for Reeves to settle down like many other people in the future. The actor always likes to wander, looking for new addresses, sometimes renting apartments, sometimes staying in hotels. Then it wasn’t until he was 40 that Keanu Reeves realized he really needed a home.
Keanu Reeves rarely gives interviews. But every time he has the chance to open up about his late best friend River Phoenix, Keanu Reeves can’t hide his tears. The two stars met on the set of “I love you to death” and very quickly, the two began the most intimate and intimate friendship in Hollywood until River Phoenix suddenly passed away forever in Hollywood. age 23 for substance abuse.
“I like his company, like it a lot,” Keanu Reeves once shared, “And I enjoy his mind, spirit and soul. We brought each other good things. He is truly an original thinker.”
Surrounded by the pain of losing the ones you love most
In 1998, fate seemed to smile at Keanu Reeves when it gave him the opportunity to meet and fall in love with a girl named Jennifer Syme. Even, the couple was very happy to welcome their first child. But then another tragedy occurred when the couple’s daughter Ava died stillborn in her mother’s womb in the 8th month of pregnancy.
Too hurt by the loss of their daughter, Jennifer Syme and Keanu Reeves had to temporarily separate until Jennifer Syme died in a tragic traffic accident in 2001.
Shocked and in pain, Keanu Reeves seemed like he could never escape the crushing fate. In 2006, the male actor still bitterly shared: “It’s unfair! It’s absurd!
Pain only changes shape but never ends. There is a misconception that you can deal with pain and just say “It’s over, I’m better.” But they are wrong.
When the person you love leaves, you are alone. I miss being a part of that person’s life and that person becoming a part of mine. I wonder what it would be like if they were here now, what we could do together. I remember all the wonderful things that will never be.”
Unjustly got involved in a series of litigation problems
In 2008, Keanu Reeves was sued for $711,974 by a photographer named Alison Silva, accusing him of intentionally crashing his car and injuring Silva. The lawsuit has greatly affected the reputation and image of Keanu Reeves, despite the fact that the actor only accidentally bumped into this person.
Fortunately, justice has spoken and Keanu Reeves won the case. The actor’s lawyer also proved that the paparazzi still used his injured arm normally, contrary to the allegations, and that Reeves only drove past the victim.
By 2009, Keanu Reeves suddenly had four children with a woman named Karen Sala. Karen Sala accused Keanu Reeves of disguising herself as her ex-husband and getting her pregnant.
This woman even filed a lawsuit against Keanu Reeves in court and demanded an allowance of 3 million USD per month for herself and 120,000 USD for her children.
Of course, the DNA test results exonerated Keanu Reeves. And the actor himself can only shake his head in frustration when talking about this “oh my god” lawsuit: “I had to go to court. The story is truly terrible. I did not do anything. I’m not just any father.”
The man never surrenders to fate
Having gone through many losses and ups and downs, Keanu Reeves did not close himself off but still bravely faced life. Turning 53 years old, Keanu Reeves understands better than anyone the imprints that time and age leave on him.
And when his body has passed the fifty-year mark, Keanu Reeves’ heart is still young, burning with desire for something he has never had: a family.
This man who has been through all the ups and downs is still filled with love when sharing: “I’m trying not to be alone too much. And it’s a war. I want to get marry. I want to have a baby.
It’s at the top of the mountain, I have to start climbing first. I can do it. Just give me some time.”
