Even in his 70s, Richard Gere still makes women swoon. Earlier this month, he attended an event wearing a black tuxedo. His wife, Alejandra Silva, 41, joined him in a sparkling cream and silver dress.
The couple attended the Zurich Film Festival in Switzerland. Gere looked sharp in his black tux, white shirt, and bow tie.
Silva’s sleeveless dress showed off her toned arms and glowing skin. She wore silver heels, and together, they walked the red carpet arm-in-arm, looking very happy.
While many love the couple, some had different opinions. One person commented, “She’s much younger, but hey, it’s their life. I don’t like her dress here.”
Others noticed something else interesting. One person wrote, “I thought it was Julia Roberts,” while another said, “She kinda looks like Julia Roberts.”
These comments are even more intriguing because of the connection Gere has with Julia Roberts. The two starred together in the hit 1990 movie, *Pretty Woman*.
Just like the chemistry Gere had with Roberts on-screen, he shares the same spark with his wife in real life. Alejandra Silva has expressed her deep love for Gere, saying, “I never thought I’d find a man so perfect for me. I have no words to describe my happiness.”
She has also talked about their age difference, saying she doesn’t feel it because Gere is so active. In fact, she sometimes struggles to keep up with him! Silva humorously added, “He has promised me at least 20 good years!”
Silva also said that she gives Gere the stability he needs. She shared, “It helped that I wasn’t an actress or a model. I never had any interest in that. What has brought us closest is our desire to help others in need, our commitment to Buddhism, and our support for the Tibetan people.”
She mentioned that Gere appreciates and values her work as a humanitarian. Besides his wife, Gere is often joined by his son, Homer Gere, who he shares with his ex-wife Carey Lowell.
The father and son were recently seen arriving at the 81st Venice Film Festival by a small boat. A video shared on social media showed Gere and Homer happily waving to the cheering crowd.
We send our best wishes to Richard Gere, his wife, and his son. Share this with other fans of the actor who might want to learn more about his life and recent public appearances.

In 2010, Sandra Bullock received a phone call that changed her life forever. “Your placement is here,” said the voice on the other end.
A few weeks later, she was on a stage, accepting her first Oscar for her appearance in The Blind Side, but she didn’t care she was there. “All I wanted was to go was just go home and feed Lou” she said of her newborn, whom she had been waiting for years to arrive.
Keep reading to learn more about this incredible actor and what inspired her to adopt two children!
In 2005, after Hurricane Katrina devastated Louisiana by flooding its grounds, Sandra Bullock had a feeling that inspired her decision to adopt a child.
“Katrina happened in New Orleans, and something told me, ‘My child is there.’ It was weird,” Bullock said in an interview with Today’s Hoda Kotb.

Years later, in January 2010, Bullock received the call she had been waiting years to receive.
“He was unexpected, he was not planned. I got a call one day, ‘Your placement is here,’ and that’s after years after having filed it, years,” the 59-year-old star of Speed tells CBS News.
Little Lou
Gushing over Louis Bardo Bullock, the three-month-old boy from New Orleans she secretly adopted in 2010, Bullock said, “I looked at him likе, ‘Oh, there you are.’ It was likе he had always been there,” she recalled. “He fit in the crook of my arm. He looked me in the eyes. He was wise. My child was wise.”
The Miss Congeniality star adds, “The beautiful thing that I was constantly told was, ‘The perfect child will find you. You will find your child.’ But you don’t believe that when it’s not happening. When you’re going, ‘Where is my family?’ When it does happen, you know exactly what they’re talking about.”
Weeks after Lou arrived, Bullock was on stage at the Kodiak Theatre, accepting her first Oscar for her starring role in the film, The Blind Side.
But Lou owned her center stage and she wanted to be at home, with him.
“All I kept thinking about was, ‘He’s at home.’ Like, I didn’t care. I didn’t care that I was there, I just wanted to go home. And then I was sewn in the dress. I was sewn in the dress, and I had to get myself out of the dress, but all I wanted to do was just go home and feed Lou.”
Only days after, her marriage to reality star Jesse James came crashing down and Bullock became a single mother to an infant.
Bullock said, “I mean, so much had happened. How do you process grief and not hurt your child in the process? It’s a newborn, they take on everything that you’re feeling. So, my obligation was to [Lou] and not tainting the first year of his life with my grief.”
‘Louis’ got the stage’
“No one understands the shift in priorities about having a child in your life … until you have a child in your life,” Bullock said of shifting her focus from career to mom. “It naturally shifts…he showed up and now, Louis’ got the stage.”
Growing up in a healthy, happy environment, little Lou one day looked up at mom and predicted “I’m going to have a baby soon.”
Though Bullock admits she wasn’t planning on growing her family, she listened to her son, who planted the seed.
“I realized at that time, maybe he knew something. And when I think about it, it would have been around the time that Laila was born,” Bullock said. “It’s Louis’ way. Louis has a very strong way. He’s a fine leader, and he led me to Lai.”
Laila, who was living in foster care in Louisiana, is her daughter who joined the family in 2015 when she was three.
Recalling Laila’s trаumа from being in childcare, the Ocean’s 8 star said, “She’d be in the closet with all her clothes on, she’d be on a bookshelf, she’d be hiding, she’d always be ready to leave,” the actress recalled of her daughter, adding that she always made sure Laila knew that she wasn’t “going anywhere.”
She then shаrеd a conversation she had about Laila with Bryan Randall, the father figure to her children, and her partner from 2015 until ALS claimed his life in 2023. She said, “My partner said to me, ‘When she’s been with us longer than she hasn’t been, I have a feeling we’re going to see a change.’”
He was right. Recently, Bullock described Laila as “unafraid.”
“She’s a fighter, and that’s the reason she’s here today. She fought to keep her spirit intact. Oh my God, what she is going to accomplish. She’s going to bring some real change.”
Lou, now 13, “is super sensitive…He’s wise and kind,” the Bird Box star tells People. “I saw that when they handed him to me. There was a spiritual bigness to him.”
Though fans will be disappointed, the versatile actor is scaling back her work schedule to again be a single mother.
Bullock last appeared in 2022’s The Lost City with Channing Tatum and Bullet Train with Brad Pitt.
“I can be creative, I can be part of a community, but right now, work in front of the camera needs to take a pause,” she said.
