At the 2024 Venice Film Festival, Richard Gere made a heartfelt gesture to his wife, Alejandra Silva, during the red carpet premiere for the movie “Wolfs” on Sunday, September 1. The 75-year-old actor knelt down and extended his arm dramatically to Silva, 41, who was visibly delighted by this display of affection. This move caught the attention of onlookers, including staff and security, who quickly captured the moment on their phones.
Richard Gere and Alejandra Silva’s relationship has been filled with meaningful moments since they tied the knot in April 2018. They have two sons together, Alexander, 5, and a younger son, aged three, whose name remains private. The family also includes Gere’s son Homer, 24, from his previous marriage with Carey Lowell, and Silva’s son, Albert, 9, from another relationship.
The couple has been adept at keeping their family life out of the spotlight. However, in a rare share to Instagram on Father’s Day, Silva posted pictures of Gere with their sons on a beach, praising him as a wonderful father. Additionally, Gere has plans to move his family to Madrid, leaving behind his longtime home in New York City for a new life in Spain, which he described as an exciting adventure.
During the festival, Gere also reminisced about his iconic role in the 1990 film “Pretty Woman” alongside Julia Roberts. He humorously commented on their famous piano scene, denying any real chemistry and revealing that the moment was improvised, describing it as “sexy.” Gere, who was also honored at the Venice amfAR Gala, seems to embrace both his storied past and his current joys, with his family by his side.
