No wonder Keanu Reeves declined to

attend Diane Katon’s funeral. The reason

behind it is truly heartbreaking. Keanu

was invited to the funeral. Dian’s

family wanted this friend to see her off

one last time, but Keanu chose to stay

silent, not out of indifference, but

because he was too griefstricken to

speak. First, Diane was someone very

special to Keanu. When they filmed

Something’s Got to Give, Keanu fell in

love with her. He once asked Diane to

shoot several crying scenes on set, and

she would cry her heart out. Now, he has

to give those tears back to her. Second,

many people thought Diane and Keanu had

a secret romance, but in reality, they

were just close friends. Their

friendship lasted far longer than any

romance. That’s why Keanu still can’t

bear to see Diane lying in a cold

coffin, never to smile again. He fears

losing control of his emotions at the

funeral. Most importantly, Keanu needs

some time to process. He probably isn’t

ready to face this reality yet. He

didn’t want Diane to see him crying like

a child at her funeral, and Diane

certainly wouldn’t have wanted him too

heartbroken. For Keanu, this funeral

isn’t a final farewell, but a reminder

that the world has permanently lost

Diane.
