Keanu Reeves is taking a DNA test to prove he’s not the father of a Barrie, Ont., woman’s children, femalefirst.co.uk reports.

The actor denies ever meeting Karen Sala, 46, who has claimed in an Ontario court that he is the father of at least one of her four kids.

Reeves’ lawyer Lorne Wolfson has advised the 45-year-old star to take a paternity test to “clear his name” and prove he is not the biological father of any of Sala’s children — who are now in their 20s.

The actor will take the test in the next four weeks. Sala is asking for $150,000 per month in child support — retroactive to June 1988 — and $3 million a month in spousal support, retroactive to November 2006.

Sala said: “This is not about revenge or an attack on his good character. It’s about closure and getting some peace. This is a personal journey.”
