Remember Richard Gere, the Hollywood heartthrob? Well, it seems like his good looks don’t stop with him. His 22-year-old son, Homer James Jigme, is all grown-up and looking incredibly handsome!
Richard Gere, now 74, became a father again in February 2019 when his wife, 39-year-old Alejandra Silva, gave birth to their first child together. And just last year, they welcomed their second son into the world. Although Richard has children from previous relationships, this is his first time co-parenting with Silva.
Before his marriage to Silva, Richard Gere was famously married to supermodel and actress Cindy Crawford. The couple met at a BBQ and quickly became one of the hottest pairs in Hollywood. They walked red carpets together, graced magazine covers, and dined at the finest restaurants. But after four years of marriage, they decided to part ways due to the significant age difference between them.
Following his divorce from Crawford, Gere found love again with model and actress Carey Lowell. The couple welcomed their only child, Homer Gere, in February 2000. Unlike his previous hesitations about having children, Gere embraced fatherhood with Lowell wholeheartedly.
Homer, who carries the names of both his grandfathers and a Tibetan name that reflects his father’s commitment to human rights, grew up in the spotlight. His parents’ divorce brought their private life into the public eye, with debates over custody and financial matters.
But despite the challenges, Homer has chosen to live a low-profile life. At 22 years old, he resides in New York City, away from the prying eyes of the media. And from the looks of it, he has inherited his father’s incredible charm and handsome looks.
As Richard Gere once shared, fatherhood changes a man’s perspective. It shifts the focus to what truly matters in life and brings a newfound sense of purpose. And while Richard Gere’s fame may have cast a shadow on his son’s life, Homer seems to be forging his own path.
So, next time you see a picture of Richard Gere, remember that he has a handsome son who is growing up and making his own way in the world. The beauty truly runs in the family!
