January 1, Richard Gere & Wife Alejandra’s Rare Public Appearance

Richard Gere, 74, and his wife Alejandra Silva, 41, made a rare public appearance together in support of a good cause. The couple attended the 2024 City Harvest Gala in New York City, held at celebrity hotspot Cipriani 42nd Street. The notoriously private pair, who secretly tied the knot in 2018, left their kids at home for the mid-week date night as they posed alongside honoree John Legend and his wife, Chrissy Teigen.

The “Pretty Woman” actor looked dapper in a navy blue suit, along with a light blue dress shirt and black shoes. He gazed adoringly at his wife and beamed as they posed for photos together.

Silva stunned in a black tiered ruffle evening gown by BCBGMAXAZRIA, featuring spaghetti straps and a sheer bodice. She paired the tulle dress with a glittering silver necklace and matching drop earrings. The Spanish activist also accessorized with a pair of silver platform pumps and a matching bedazzled clutch.

Gere and Silva, who recently celebrated their sixth wedding anniversary, have kept most of their marriage out of the public eye. They also rarely share snaps of their sons, 5-year-old Alexander and a 4-year-old whose name hasn’t been revealed.

The “Runaway Bride” actor, who was previously married to Carey Lowell from 2002 to 2016, also shares son Homer, 24, with the model. His first wife, fellow model Cindy Crawford, recently spoke out about their marriage, which lasted from 1991 to 1995. “I just think your 20s for women is such a time where you’re starting to come into your own and feel your own power and connect to your inner strength,” Crawford, 58, said in the series “The Supermodel” late last year.

“He was older, so I just was like in a different circle and not doing some of those same fashiony things anymore,” she went on, noting she was “willing to kind of mold” herself to be with Gere, who was 17 years older than her.

Silva, for her part, was married to businessman Govind Friedland from 2012 and 2015, and the former couple co-parent a 10-year-old son named Albert.
