Richard Gere, 75, and his wife Alejandra, 41, captured everyone’s attention as they attended the premiere of The Wisdom of Happiness on October 8 at the 20th Zurich Film Festival. The pair, who tied the knot in 2018, looked utterly enchanted with each other as they strolled down the red carpet, hand in hand, radiating love and affection for all to see.
Alejandra looked breathtaking in a wedding-inspired gown by Spanish designer Teresa Helbig. The dress, a blend of elegance and charm, featured delicate white mesh details, creating a romantic and sophisticated look. Describing the dress, Helbig shared with HELLO! in 2022, “This design captures the essence of the Helbigbride style—refined and playful, with a flared silhouette crafted from cotton fabric and layered with soft, flowing overlays.”
The couple, often seen enjoying quiet moments together, didn’t shy away from showing their deep affection for one another. At the 2024 Venice Film Festival, Richard made an unforgettable gesture when he stopped on the red carpet, knelt before Alejandra, and bowed to her, moving her to tears and drawing laughter from the audience.
The couple first crossed paths in 2015 and tied the knot three years later. Together, they share two young sons, Alexander, 5, and James, 4. Alejandra also has a 9-year-old son, Albert, from her previous marriage to Govind Friedland. Richard, on the other hand, has a 24-year-old son, Homer, from his previous marriage to actress Carey Lowell. Their blended family, full of love, continues to shine brightly in the public eye.
