Richard Gere, 75, poses with his 41-year-old wife for a magazine and sparks controversy online

Richard Gere and his wife Alejandra Silva appeared to be in love on the cover of Elle Spain’s February issue, as they discussed relocating to Madrid with their family.

The 75-year-old actor’s 41-year-old wife is from Spain, and the couple has previously expressed their desire to relocate to the European country with their two kids, Alexander, five, and James, four.

Despite their 33-year age difference and geographic distance at the start, the married pair is now ‘happier than ever’.

Richard Gere, an American actor, posed with his wife Alejandra Silva for the Spanish edition of Elle magazine, sparking online controversy.

The 75-year-old artist and his 41-year-old girlfriend posed for a photo while hugging. Gere appears in one of the images wearing a black jacket and combed-back hair. Silva wore a white shirt with a plunging neckline, a push-up bra, and a silver snake necklace.

Readers of the magazine shared their thoughts on the filming in the comments section.

“Still think Gere is gorgeous,”

“Beautiful couple,”

“Richard still looks great,”

“They look like father and daughter in this picture,”

“Gere is a handsome man and is aging gracefully, but he definitely looks like her grandfather,”

“He has the pink, shrimp-like face of an old man,”

“Unfortunately, Gere is not Cary Grant [a popular British-American actor from the 1930s to the 1960s], and the age difference is noticeable,”

“Richard Gere was a handsome man in his day, but now he looks like an old man,” the users said.
