Like many other stars, including Laura Dern and Charlize Theron, Reeves invited his mom, Patricia Taylor, to Hollywood’s biggest night.

But after taking some red carpet pictures with the costume designer, photo agency Getty Images and news agency the Associated Press both mistook her for 47-year-old Alexandra Grant in their photo captions.

According to Glamour (who screengrabbed the Getty image), an incorrect caption was published on Getty early in the evening, reading: “Alexandra Grant and Keanu Reeves attends the 92nd Annual Academy Awards at the Hollywood and Highland on February 09, 2020 in Hollywood, California.”

Meanwhile, Mercury News reported that the Associated Press also released a photo with a similarly incorrect caption: “Alexandra Grant, left, and Keanu Reeves arrives at the Oscars on Sunday, Feb. 9, 2020, at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.”

Both Getty and AP’s errors have since been corrected to accurately identify Taylor.

In a statement sent to Insider, Getty Images wrote: “Getty Images sincerely apologises for incorrectly captioning Patricia Taylor as Alexandra Grant. As soon as we identified the error we updated the image immediately with the correct caption.

Hannah Waddingham’s ‘intense’ first meeting with Tom Cruise involved being stuck on a fighter carrier for 5 days sitting inches away from his face — and it was ‘lovely’

Associated Press did not immediately respond to Insider’s requests for comment.

This isn’t the first time one of Reeves’ red carpet dates has been misidentified.

When he made his relationship debut with the Los Angeles-based artist Grant in November 2019, a number of people on Twitter initially thought he was dating Dame Helen Mirren.

Mirren, who is 28 years younger than Grant, responded to the case of mistaken identity by saying it was “very flattering.”

Grant, who has been trolled in the past for her silver hair, responded to comments on Instagram in December about why she doesn’t dye it any more.

She shared a screengrab of a Newsweek article which revealed women who regularly use permanent hair dye could face a 60% increased risk of developing breast cancer. She also said she prematurely went gray in her early 20s.
