This is what goPenpal answered

The past participle of the verb 'keep' is 'kept.' Now, let's elaborate a bit more: past participles are one of the many slippery slopes on the mountain of English language learning, but once you've mastered them, you'll be descending down the slope of fluency with ease. They often end in 'ed' or 'en', but there are many irregular verbs, like 'keep', which simply change form. These irregular verbs need to be memorized for fluent use. So, next time you're jotting down notes or spinning a fabulous yarn about your life, remember - it's not 'I have keeped,' it's 'I have kept'!
