Richard Gere's son is all grown-up and he is so handsome - Life Quotes

It hasn’t been long since Richard Gere, now 74, became a dad again. In February 2019, Richard and his 39-year-old wife, Alejandra Silva, welcomed their first son into the world. And just a year later, their second son was born.

While these babies are the first for Gere and Silva together, both have children from previous relationships. Gere’s 22-year-old son, Homer James Jigme, is from his previous marriage with ex-wife Care Lowell.

Now, I know you’re curious to see what this 22-year-old looks like today, and trust me, you won’t be disappointed. Richard Gere gained fame as a Hollywood heartthrob through his roles in movies like “American Gigolo,” “Pretty Woman,” and “An Officer and a Gentleman.”

Back in the day, Gere met his first wife, the stunning model and actress Cindy Crawford, at a BBQ. The couple quickly became one of Hollywood’s hottest pairs, with the paparazzi following their every move. They attended glamorous events, appeared on red carpets, and dined at the finest restaurants in New York and Los Angeles.

However, their marriage only lasted for four years. Crawford, who was 22 when she met 39-year-old Gere, felt that the age difference was too significant. She wanted to have her own voice and walk hand-in-hand with her partner.

After his divorce, Gere met model and actress Carey Lowell. Their relationship was different. Gere was initially hesitant about having children, but with Lowell, it felt right. In 2000, they welcomed their only child together, Homer Gere.

Homer’s birth was a significant event as his parents named him after their fathers and gave him the Tibetan name Jigme to honor Gere’s commitment to human rights in Tibet.

Gere showed how fatherhood can transform a man, saying, “Having children changes your perspective. All the clichés about parenthood are true.” Homer grew up in the spotlight due to his parents’ fame, and their divorce brought undue attention and speculation about custody battles.

But let’s focus on the present. Homer prefers to keep a low profile and currently resides in NewYork. From the glimpses we’ve seen, it’s clear that Richard Gere has passed down his infectious charm and handsome looks to his son.
