He achieved true happiness in his old age. Richard is a new father. A beautiful couple!

At age 50, Richard Gere gave birth to his first kid. The celebrity, who just turned 73, is a mother of three, the newest of whom was born two years ago. Gere zealously protects his family from unwanted attention and is reticent to provide personal information. He enjoys a quiet family life away from prying eyes.

The actor had a long-standing relationship with Ignacio Silva’s family, a Spanish billionaire. He first met Alejandra Silva, Silva’s daughter, in 2014. The publicist and philanthropist was a young woman, over 30 years Gere’s junior. But the two of them immediately developed deep affections for one another. Alejandra and Richard seemed unable to separate their gazes.

Everything wasn’t as straightforward at first. Silva and Gere were going through divorce proceedings at the time. She was of the opinion that their relationship would not end well. The actor, however, was set on finding reciprocity and he persisted in doing so. Later, Alejandra remarked that facing challenges in the early stages of a relationship usually makes couples stronger.

The couple got married in 2018. Silva and Gere both made an effort to keep many aspects of their private life hidden. Even after the wedding was announced to the public, it took some time. When their son Alexander was born in 2019, Alejandra also took her time to announce her pregnancy.

In 2020, a second boy, named Alexander, was born. His parents haven’t yet made his name public. Alejandra guards her children’s privacy fiercely. She never posts photos of them with their faces exposed on social media. Silva freely acknowledges that she has never been interested in the entertainment industry and has never dreamed of becoming an actress; perhaps this is the reason why she and Richard have such a nice marriage.

The actor didn’t even consider becoming a parent for a very long time. He jokingly said that he was still a huge kid at heart and that it was too soon for him to think about having kids. But everything changed after meeting Carey Lowell.

He always had a conversation with his son before going away for a lengthy amount of time for filming. Richard coldly denied the offer if Homer was against it since, in the end, family is more significant than everything else in the world.
