Harmonious family appearance in Venice: Richard Gere impresses with his son and his wife on the red carpet.
Richard Gere (75) has once again made a film festival a family affair: The acting star was accompanied to Venice by his son Homer (24) and wife Alejandra Silva (41). The trio attended a gala and a film premiere on Sunday.
Richard Gere as inspiration
Gere, who turned 75 on August 31, came to the amfAR gala at the film festival in a tuxedo with a black bow tie. His son followed suit and also appeared in the classic look. Alejandra Silva chose a glamorous gown decorated with glittering floral appliqués in blue. The rest of the dress was made of a transparent fabric, which gave the look a sexy touch. At the gala, Richard Gere was awarded the “Award of Inspiration”. “Few in the entertainment industry have done as much to fight AIDS as Richard Gere,” said amfAR CEO Kevin Robert Frost in a statement. “His deep desire to help those on the fringes of society makes him an inspiration to all of us here at amfAR.”
Together with his wife and son, Gere also attended the premiere of “Wolfs”, a crime comedy and the first joint film by superstars George Clooney (63) and Brad Pitt (60) since the spy comedy “Burn After Reading” in 2008. Gere and his son came in tuxedos once again, while Alejandra Silva chose a white dress with a high slit, small train and ruffles for the premiere party and her appearance on the red carpet. Her husband was obviously delighted with his wife and her appearance. Photos show him getting down on his knees in front of her in front of the photographers or holding her tenderly in his arms and kissing her.
The “Pretty Woman” star already made his appearance at the 77th International Film Festival in Cannes in May a family affair: On the red carpet before the “Oh, Canada” world premiere, Gere appeared in love with Alejandra Silva. His son Homer was also there at the after-party after the acclaimed premiere, as the US magazine “People” reported.
Son Homer James Jigme Gere comes from the star’s second marriage to actress Carey Lowell (63). The two married in 2002 and announced their separation in 2013. The divorce followed in 2016. He has been married to Silva since 2018. The two have two sons, born in 2019 and 2020. Before Lowell, Gere was married to supermodel Cindy Crawford (58) from 1991 to 1995.
