The short but profound love story with Jennifer Maria Syme greatly influenced Keanu Reeves’ psyche forever. |
The love story of the couple is very secretive and peaceful until a big shock occurs. On December 24, 1999, their daughter Ava Archer Syme-Reeves was born and died within minutes of being born prematurely.

Confiding in Parade magazine in 2006, Reeves expressed: “I miss them – people I used to see as a part of my life. I wonder what it would be like if they were still here, we were still together? Things great ever, I will never forget.
It’s not fair. It’s absurd. Pain only changes shape but never goes away. Everyone makes the mistake that you can deal with pain and just say ‘It’s over, I’m getting better’. But they are wrong. When your loved one is gone, you will live in solitude.

In all these years, Reeves rarely smiled. He attached cold but introspective roles like the tragedy in his life. However, praise must be given to the star John Wick because no matter how stuck he is, he still does not rely on alcohol or stimulants to relieve his sadness.
Reeves said: “Every difficulty in life helps you and me grow. Be grateful for the dark times because they make us stronger.”
Unbound by love, the 55-year-old star cares for others more than herself. Reeves used to deduct $80 million from the paycheck for The Matrix to divide among the post-production staff. He also gave a Christmas gift worth $20,000 to the family of an employee with difficult circumstances.
In 2003, “The kindest man on the planet” shared in an interview: “Money is the last thing on my mind. I can live on what I have made for the next few centuries.”
