“I thought it was his daughter”: Richard Gere appears with his wife, their big age difference provokes reactions

Love has no age. Really ? This is not what some Internet users seem to think, after the notable exit of Richard Gere and his wife Alejandra Silva. The couple, married since 2018, appeared on the red carpet of the ELLE for Future 2024 event, in Madrid on November 27.

An age difference that makes people react

Photos from the evening were shared on social networks. And they did not fail to make people talk about them. The 75-year-old actor appears in a suit and black bow tie alongside his 41-year-old wife, dressed in a black strapless dress. If some Internet users applauded the beauty of the couple, others highlighted the 34 years of difference that separates the two lovers.

Some examples: “Is this his wife or his granddaughter?”ironically asks one of them. “I thought it was his daughter!”says another. This is what we can read under the photo from the American magazine People, uploaded to Instagram immediately after the event. Others go even further, and call Alejandra Silva a “Hospice wife” (literally translated: “palliative care woman”), a term that describes a woman we marry at the end of life so that she can take care of us when we are ill.

Richard Gere and his wife, a couple that lasts

There will always be someone who criticizes the love between two people. But Richard Gere and his wife Alejandra Silva seem very happy. A couple since 2015, married in 2018 in New York, they have since welcomed two sons: Alexander (5 years old) and James (4 years old). Together, they are preparing to move to Spain to be closer to the wife's family and friends.

A few days ago, Richard Gere confided his happiness on the show The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. The host asked him how he was, and he replied: “Top of the top. I love my wife. She's incredible, she's a great mother. The kids are healthy, happy. Nothing more is needed.” This is what is said.
