Richard Gere celebrated his 73rd birthday today. Nowadays, his life is totally dedicated to his family. But then his journey to become a family man with an affectionate companion was extensive and exciting.
Gere met Carey Lowell after his break up from fashion model Cindy Crawford in 1995. Gere and Lowell dated for seven years before getting married. Both have been married previously, so they understand the determination it took to have a lifetime promise.
They tied the knot in a low-profile wedding with their broods as witnesses and was kept undisclosed for a while.
The couple decided to terminate their association after 11 years of marriage. The cause behind the parting was apparently due to their dissimilar lives. Gere was a Buddhist and sought to live a low life of seclusion, whereas Lowell desired to meet people and be in the fame.
Their split-up concluded as a lengthy and chaotic fight. The separation involved a guardianship clash and they could not settle on the split of Gere’s wealth. Lowell sought a 100million of his 250 million wealth since she felt she gave up her profession for him and maintained their son Homer and she also thought that she merited half of the whole thing
Lastly, after four years of difficult discussions in court, their separation was settled.
After going through a lengthy tireless break up, Gere found love once more.
Gere his Spanish lady Alejandra Silva in Italy while she was handling a hotel in Positano. Silva is the daughter of Ignacio Silva, an entrepreneur and the ex-Vice President of the Real Madrid football club.
Gere was a close friend of the Silva family and they began dating in 2014. The pair tied the knot in 2018 in a lovely Indian-inspired nuptial.
