After a legendary Hollywood career, Richard Gere is leaving the United States for a new chapter in Spain. Known for iconic roles in Pretty Woman and Chicago, Gere has long preferred a quieter life outside the spotlight.
In 2024, he and his wife, Alejandra Silva, decided to move to Madrid, where Alejandra is from. Richard, excited about the adventure, looks forward to experiencing Spainâs culture and lifestyle while giving his family a more relaxed, family-centered life. The move will also allow their children to connect with their Spanish heritage.
The couple recently sold their Connecticut estate, marking the first step in their transition. Richardâs decision reflects his desire for peace and a closer bond with family, moving away from Hollywoodâs hustle in favor of a life focused on personal growth and family connections.
