Richard Gere shares rare glimpse of his kids with wife Alejandra Silva after keeping them out of spotlight

Daily Mail​25-05-2025

Richard Gere gave a rare glimpse of his youngest sons as he posed for a sweet snap along with wife Alejandra Silva on Friday.
The Pretty Woman actor, 75 - who recently moved to his wife's home country of Spain - could be seen posing outside with his family while also promoting the non-profit organization Open Arms.
The star tied the knot with the Spanish activist in 2018, and the couple share sons Alexander, six, and James, five.
Gere donned matching gray hoodies with Silva and their two sons - who had their backs turned towards the camera to show off the back of the sweatshirts.
In the caption of the post, Richard penned: 'This whole family is a proud supporter of @openarms_fund and their mission to save lives. ♥️ @alejandragere.'

The Open Arms Foundation 'provides a home away from home at no cost for those who must travel to receive medical treatment,' per the official website.
Richard has been involved with the charity for years and back in 2019, was seen on an Open Arms rescue vessel on the Mediterranean Sea.
He helped bring supplies to the 121 migrants on board who at the time, had fled war-torn Libya.
During a past interview with The Guardian, Gere reflected on his decision to go onto the boat and offer his assistance.
'I'm inspired by Open Arms. I'm deeply committed to their point of view of the universe,' he told the outlet.
'They're dealing up close with these people, and that's where you want to get your information. […] They said it was deeply serious, not only to them, but to other rescue boats as well.'
The star continued, 'And that's when I made a very quick decision. I said: "Look, I gotta see this for myself." I jumped in a car and arrived at the Rome airport in literally five minutes.'
Gere's latest post comes not long after the star officially moved to Spain with his wife Alejandra and their children.
The Primal Fear actor is also father to son Homer, 25, whom he shares with ex-wife Carey Lowell. Silva has another son named Albert, 12, from a previous relationship.
While talking to Elle España earlier this year in January, Richard and Alejandra opened up about the big move.
'The truth is that you are seeing us in our momentum. We are happier than ever,' the Hollywood star expressed.
Silva also gushed, 'We are like soulmates. We have the same values, we see the world in the same way and from the first moment we felt like we have known each other for a long time. And this only happens once, if it happens at all.'
In regards to how they have all settled in Spain with their children, Alejandra stated, 'Richard is a very devoted and present father. He loves to read them stories.
'It seems like an idyllic photo, but it's true. He's a great dad. He doesn't cook. I do it, but when I cook, he plays the guitar.'
Late last year in November, Gere explained why he and his family have chosen to relocate to his wife's home country while on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon.
'My wife is Spanish and she gave me about seven years here, so we're going to spend some years in Madrid with her family.'
The star also told the late night talk show host, 'Our kids are bilingual, so they're going to flourish there.'
A few months earlier in March, Silva paid a special tribute to Richard as he celebrated his first 'Spanish Father's Day.'
She uploaded a sweet photo as the actor talked to their three youngest kids and added the caption: 'Happy 1st Spanish Father's day to the best dad of the world.'
However, last month in April - it was revealed that the couple and their children have plans to still return to the U.S.
Alejandra shared the big news while exclusively talking to DailyMail.com at the City Harvests Presents The 2025 Gala.
'For a few years [we'll live in Spain], and then come back. But we're always coming back.'
The activist added, 'We'll come back here in the summer because we have the kids at camp. We just have to balance our lives there and here.
'I'm with my family ... I missed them a lot. But I miss the U.S. So we come back and forth.'
Gere also still has projects under his belt such as the upcoming romantic comedy titled The Making Of.
The film - which is still in its pre-production stages - additionally stars Blake Lively, Diane Keaton and Lin-Manuel Miranda.
The premise is: 'Long-married filmmakers have cast overemotional actors to portray their younger selves in the story of their great love. Unfortunately, by the time shooting begins, their fabled marriage is unraveling,' per IMDB.

Mel Gibson, 69, chows down on pasta in Rome amid work on sequel to one of his iconic films

Mel Gibson was glimpsed having a laugh while chowing down on pasta in Rome - as he develops the sequel to one of his most iconic movies. The 69-year-old actor and director has apparently traveled to the capital of Italy in order to work on his upcoming film Resurrection Of The Christ. His picture will serve as the follow-up to his self-funded 2004 sleeper hit The Passion Of The Christ, directed by Gibson and starring Jim Caviezel as Jesus. The first movie began with Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane and ended with him emerging from the tomb, so the next one will presumably cover the 40 days the Bible says he remained on earth after his return from the dead. A source said Gibson is pre-production on the new film, via TMZ, and he was spotted indulging in the local cuisine in a restaurant on his downtime. When he noticed that he was being observed, he mischievously goofed off a bit, pulling extravagant faces and grinning broadly. The Braveheart star cut a casual figure during his latest outing, opting for a black V-neck t-shirt and a matching set of trousers. Jazzing up the ensemble with a necklace, the Apocalypto director slung a fashionable set of gleaming sunglasses from his shirt. The sighting comes just weeks after Gibson enjoyed an onstage reunion with Danny Glover, his co-star in another one of his legendary pictures, Lethal Weapon. The co-stars were onstage at a fan expo in Philadelphia, during which they fielded questions about the hugely successful Lethal Weapon franchise and its previously announced and long delayed fifth instalment, which will be directed by Gibson. Glover, 78 - whose Detective Roger Murtaugh famously claimed he was 'too old for this s**t' in all four Lethal Weapon instalments - was back in the spotlight some three years after his last screen appearance in 2022 black comedy American Dreamer. Joining the veteran star, Gibson, 69 - Murtagh's unpredictable and highly volatile partner Martin Riggs - showed off an enormous, greying beard as he took to his seat at the Pennsylvania Convention Center during Saturday's expo. Gibson previously confirmed that long-time co-star Danny will make an appearance in the latest film, reprising his role as LAPD Sergeant Murtaugh. The Australian star also told how he asked for Glover's blessing to direct the movie following the death of director Richard Donner - who took charge of the first four films. A source said Gibson is pre-production on the new film, via TMZ The Braveheart star cut a casual figure during his latest outing The co-stars were onstage at a fan expo in Philadelphia, during which they fielded questions about the hugely successful Lethal Weapon franchise Reiterating his intention to direct the feature in 2022, Gibson told Entertainment Tonight: 'Yeah, I am directing that. I'm really looking forward to it.' The star went on to add that his place behind the camera was bittersweet following the death of Donner in 2021. He added: 'I wish I wasn't directing it. I wish Richard Donner was still here to do it but left us untimely, and he actually asked me, he said "Hey kid, if I don't make it, you'll take the reins, huh?" I told him to shut up. 'I think it's an honor for me to be able to carry the flag for him'. And after getting Richard's blessing, Gibson told how he then turned to Glover to ask his thoughts on him directing, also confirming that his former co-star had agreed to reprise his iconic role. Gibson added: 'I called Danny [Glover] up, of course, and said "Hey, dude, is it okay with you if I direct this?", to which Glover replied "Yeah, let's go". He also insisted on having complete faith in Glover, adding: 'I know Danny's going to pull it off real well, too. He's kind of like the show pony in this one'. Gibson made the big announcement about the new film in 2021, where he began his address by paying tribute to the filmmaker who had previously spearheaded the action-comedy franchise. Gibson featured in the Lethal Weapon movies as the unpredictable and highly volatile partner of the Donald Glover character Gibson also recalled that the filmmaker had given him his blessing to continue the series in the future 'The man who directed all the Lethal films, Richard Donner, he was a big guy,' he expressed. Gibson also recalled that the filmmaker had given him his blessing to continue the series in the future. He remarked that Donner 'was developing the screenplay and he got pretty far along with it. And he said to me one day, "Listen kid, if I kick the bucket you will do it." And I said: "Shut up."' Gibson then noted that the filmmaker made a point of telling various individuals that the actor was more than capable of keeping the franchise going after his death. 'But he did indeed pass away. But he did ask me to do it and at the time I didn't say anything. He said it to his wife and to the studio and the producer. So I will be directing the fifth one.' It's understood that plans to shoot the new film are now underway after years of delays, with original screenwriter Shane Black also onboard. The film franchise also spawned a TV series, which ran for three seasons for 2021 with Clayne Crawford as Riggs and Damon Wayans as Murtaugh.

Ryan Lochte breaks silence on divorce from Playboy wife Kayla with emotional message

US Olympic icon Ryan Lochte has spoken out on Instagram over the influx of support he has received after it emerged he is getting divorced from his wife, Kayla Reid. The couple announced the news on Wednesday and speaking on social media, the 12-time Olympic medalist said it was 'rough' going public with the split. 'I just want to say thank you to everyone that wrote a message, reached out to me — just open arms,' he said in an Instagram video. 'It means a lot to me. Yesterday was a rough day for me, but, like always in life, you've got to put one foot in front of the other and keep moving forward, so, that's what I'm doing.' The 40-year-old Lochte said he had been sent gifts by his 'second family', such as candy and a card. 'Thank you guys, I love you guys,' he added. The couple have three kids together. Kayla announced the split on June 4, saying: 'I hold marriage in the highest regard, so this has been one of the most painful, revealing, and challenging seasons of my life. 'I've been hesitant to share until I could do so from a place of healing - not from fresh, open wounds.' 'Sometimes we face trials we didn't choose or see coming. And in those moments, we're forced to make the hardest decisions to protect our peace, our children, and our future. 'I've come to the understanding that staying isn't always the most loving decision someone can make. For me, leaving was an act of love - for those around me and for myself.' The couple shares son Caiden, 7, daughter Liv, 5 and nearly two-year-old daughter Georgia. According to court records cited by People, Kayla filed for divorce on March 26. Lochte shared a statement himself, saying: 'I want to take a moment to acknowledge what Kayla shared. This past year has brought major changes for both of us as we've come to the difficult decision to end our marriage. 'I'm deeply grateful for the life we've built together and especially for the love we share for our three children. 'Although this decision hasn't been easy, I believe it's the right step toward peace and well-being for us both. I remain committed to healing, growth, and co-parenting with care and respect as we move forward separately.' The couple met in 2016 before getting engaged that same year in the fall. Lochte was also thrust into controversy during the 2016 Rio Games, after he claimed that he and three teammates were robbed at gunpoint after a night out. It was later revealed that the armed men were actually security guards and several details of Lochte's story proved to be fabricated. He was ultimately charged with submitting a false report to police, but charges were later dismissed after he apologized.
