Keanu Reeves and Alexandra Grant like to keep their romance low-key.

“They both work hard and then enjoy life together,” a source tells PEOPLE. “They’re very much a normal couple.”

Though the pair, who took their relationship public in 2019, are frequently invited to parties and events together, they’re selective about where they spend their time, the source says.

“They’re often invited to events but only attend ones that truly matter to them,” the source says. “They’re both homebodies. They’d much rather entertain at home. They often have friends over for dinner. It’s always the best.”

At 59, the Matrix actor is still passionate about his long-time hobby too: “Keanu still has his custom motorcycle company, ARCH. Motorcycles are a huge part of his life,” says the source, adding, “Alex never minded. She has a very calm personality and just wants him to be happy.”

Last week, a source told PEOPLE that Reeves and Grant, 54, are both happy together. “This is the most fun and positive relationship that Keanu has ever been in,” the source told PEOPLE, adding that Grant, who is an artist, is a “rare gem.”

“She is adorable, sweet, caring and funny. She has her own life and career but is also very supportive of Keanu’s,” added the source. “When he films on location, she travels with him. When he films locally, she often visits the set.”

“Everyone just loves her. They live together and often have friends over for dinner. Keanu is very happy,” the source said.

Reeves and Grant went public with their romance in November 2019, making their red carpet debut at the LACMA Art + Film Gala presented by Gucci in Los Angeles at the time.

In September 2023, Grant told PEOPLE at the Los Angeles Beverly Arts Icon Awards that she feels “interdependent and independent in the best ways.”

She explained, “The good news about falling in love as an adult is that I had built my own career by the time that my relationship had begun. I feel very confident in the relationship on the red carpet. I feel confident on it alone.”

At the time, Grant also said that the actor is “such an inspiration to me,” adding that he is “so creative, he’s so kind. He works so hard.”

Before they began dating, the couple were long-time friends, and even collaborated on a few creatives projects too. In 2016, they published Shadows, an art book featuring a series of 54 images, photographed by Grant, based on the movements of Reeves.

“No one can move the way he can. He’s a really extreme performer,” Grant said of Reeves at a Los Angeles gallery viewing at the time, per the Los Angeles Times. “That’s a huge piece of why those images are so interesting. I knew that if I moved the camera as we danced together, as photographer and subject, we could create these wonderful optical illusions.”
