Richard Gere wants the world to know he adores his wife, Alejandra Silva.
Gere, 75, bowed down in honor of Silva, 41, as the pair walked the 2024 Venice Film Festival’s Wolfs red carpet premiere on Sunday, September 1.
The Pretty Woman actor bent a knee to the ground and extended his right arm towards a smiling Silva, who graciously accepted her husband’s extravagant gesture.
Gere even dropped his head in the dramatic show of affection, leading red carpet staff and even security officials to pull out their phones and snap the romantic moment.
Nothing but a number. Richard Gere may be more than thirty years older than wife Alejandra Silva, but the two are determined to live every day to the fullest with their family. “I was a little lost, without light, and knowing him gave meaning to my life. It was feeling that someone was reaching out […]
Gere and Silva, who were married in April 2018 and share two sons, Alexander, 5, and another child, 3, whose name has not been publicly revealed, made the most of their visit to the annual film festival. The couple attended the annual amfAR Gala, also held in Venice, that same day with Gere’s son Homer, 24, whom he shares with ex-wife Carey Lowell.
Gere, who is also a stepfather to Silva’s son, Albert, 9, served as an honoree at the prestigious amfAR Gala.

Known for shielding their family from the spotlight, Silva shared a rare look into the couple’s private life to mark Father’s Day in June. The Spanish publicist took to Instagram on June 16 to share photos of Gere with their sons on a beach.
“Happy Father’s Day, to the most wonderful dad four boys could ever wish for,” Silva wrote alongside a carousel of pics. “Your endless patience, love, and dedication are truly remarkable. Happy Father’s Day to the man who is always there for us, making every moment special. Love, Mom, James, Alexander, Albert Homer ♥️♥️ #happyfathersday.”
The sweet post came after Gere told Vanity Fair Spain in an article published on April 16 that he, Silva and his three youngest children were planning to permanently relocate from New York City to the Spanish capital, Madrid.
Lights, camera, fashion! The Venice Film Festival doesn’t only deliver movie premieres — it brings stellar fashion and fresh accessories. Take Jenna Ortega, for example, who slayed in a custom Christian Dior ensemble featuring a ruffled top and pleated tulle skirt. The Beetlejuice Beetlejuice actress topped her look off with custom Jimmy Choo heels and […]
“For me, going to Madrid is going to be a great adventure because I have never lived full-time outside of the United States,” Gere told the outlet.
The actor celebrated his 75th birthday at the Venice Film Festival and reflected on his role alongside Julia Roberts in 1990’s Pretty Woman.
According to Variety, Gere attended a masterclass hosted by Cartier where he was quizzed about one of the film’s most memorable scenes. It involved Roberts, 56, getting intimate with Gere while seated at a piano.
“No chemistry,” he reportedly joked before sharing with fans that the raunchy scene was improvised. “I mean, this actor and this actress, obviously, had no chemistry between them … I haven’t seen that in a long time, too. It was a sexy, sexy scene.”
