Because of his work in movies such as “American Gigolo,” “Pretty Woman,” and “Runaway Bride,” Richard Gere has earned the reputation of being a Hollywood heartthrob. In addition to this, he is well-known for his charming ways. Gere was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on August 31, 1949, however he spent the most of his childhood in Syracuse, New York.
Gere began a string of leading man roles with his appearances in the suspense film “Primal Fear,” the romantic comedy “Runaway Bride,” in which he reteamed with Julia Roberts, and the drama “I’m Not There,” however, it was his performance in the film Chicago from 2002 that brought him back into the public eye.
Alexander Gere, the couple’s first kid, was born in February 2019, while the pair welcomed their second son together in August 2020. The name of the couple’s second son is not yet known to the general public at this time.
As a result of Gere’s decision to have a family when he was in his 70s, he faces obstacles that the majority of dads do not. There is a difference of 34 years between him and his wife Silva, and it has been stated that Gere has expressed concern that he may not be able to see the development of his younger children owing to his age in the same way that he did with his first kid.
It was reported in the Independent that he spent his childhood on a farm and that he made his initial forays into the creative world by writing music for performances at his high school. He acknowledged his parents as the primary contributors to his development of his skills.
Gere now has a family of his own to call his own. The age difference between the pair is 34 years, yet it doesn’t seem to worry either of them. Silva continued by saying, “From the minute we laid eyes on one other, our karma was drawn to one another. I’m not dismissing our age gap and what it means to be with a Hollywood celebrity; but, when there is such a strong karmic energy, the difficulties evaporate.”
The famous actor is known for being a devoted parent who excels at ensuring that his children come first in his life at all times. “When you put it into perspective with the other things going on in your life, the little stuff simply doesn’t have the same impact on you anymore.”
Then, a little more than a year later, it was announced that the couple had a second son together. The child’s name remains unknown to this day due to the fact that the pair has maintained a high level of discretion with respect to their child.
