he never hid his weakness for women, and the colorful press wrote about his numerous affairs and failed relationships with big stars for years. One of his partners was top model Cindy Crawford, for whom he even decided to get married for the first time.
He was a movie star, she was a supermodel. Crawford and Gere quickly decided to get married
Their first meeting took place in the late 1980s at an event organized by their mutual friend, photographer Herb Ritts. Gare was already one of the biggest stars in Hollywood at that time, including: thanks to her role in the hit film, and Crawford was one of the big six world-famous supermodels. Already after the first conversation, she felt that the actor, who was 17 years older than her, had turned her head, and she had also caught his eye. Initially, they met secretly from the media, later they claimed that they were just friends, but in the end the feeling turned out to be stronger.
In December 1991, the couple got married in Las Vegas. Although they seemed to be a perfect match, years later Crawford admitted that she was too young to marry and that she already noticed differences between her and her partner, but tried to rationalize them. – Back then I didn’t think I was young, today I know I was. I think the problem with our relationship was that we had everything in common except friendship. I was young and he was Richard Gere. Then I started to mature and it was difficult to change the nature of our relationship – in one of the interviews.
Cindy Crawford’s marriage to Richard Gere lasted 4 years. Why did they split up?
The lifestyle they led also did not influence the deepening of the bond. Due to their work, they both traveled often, so they only spent a few days a month together. Although they tried to do everything to save the relationship, over time they noticed that the feeling simply faded away. – We thought it would be good if one of us flew from Paris to Los Angeles to spend the night with the other person. We thought that would be enough to make the marriage work. It wasn’t enough – a model.
Despite their efforts, their relationship did not stand the test of time and ended after 4 years. Crawford admitted years later in the Apple TV+ series that the relationship turned out to be a valuable lesson for her in the future. She understood that she did not have to submit to her partner and give up her own passions and interests. After the divorce, the model found happiness with Randy Gerber, with whom she had two children. In turn, the actor, after numerous failed relationships and love turmoil, in 2018 married Alejanda Silva, more than three decades younger than him, with whom he had two sons.
