He first captured hearts in classics like Pretty Woman, An Officer and a Gentleman, and Days of Heaven. Richard Gere launched his film career in the 1970s, quickly rising to fame as one of Hollywood’s leading men and ultimate heartthrobs. With his smoldering looks, charm, and undeniable screen presence, he became the dark-haired icon women couldn’t resist—and fans still remember him that way.
Now 76, Gere has traded his youthful looks for silver hair and the lines of time, but his presence remains as compelling as ever. Many may not realize his first marriage was to supermodel Cindy Crawford, a glamorous union that lasted four years. His second marriage, to actress Carey Lowell, spanned 14 years and was widely seen as one of Hollywood’s most stable love stories—until their split in 2016.
Together, Gere and Lowell welcomed a son, Homer. Since 2018, Gere has been married to Alejandra Silva, with whom he shares two younger children, Alexander and James. But it was his eldest son who recently turned heads and stirred a social media frenzy.
Homer made a rare public appearance alongside his father on the red carpet—and instantly stole the spotlight. With striking features and a natural charisma reminiscent of his dad’s prime, the internet lit up with comments like:
“Dad’s genes did their job!”,
“Warning: Married women, do not scroll!”,
and “Future star in the making!”
Homer Gere may be stepping out of his father’s shadow—but he’s doing it with unmistakable style and a strong dose of that signature Gere magnetism.
