The outing came just one day after Reeves closed eight weeks of performances in Waiting for Godot.

Grant used the post to cheer on upcoming Milan-Cortina 2026 Winter Games athletes:
“We’re inspired by how you’re choosing to train and eat on your terms, what music you prefer, your awesome style choices, finding joy in a sport that requires so many hours of practice to perfect. We’re rooting for you.”
Quote That Captured It
She ended with a line attributed to figure-skater Alysa Liu:
“Connections with people-that’s the most important thing in life. It overrides everything.”
