Richard Gere, 68, ‘set to become a dad again and is expecting his first child with new wife Alejandra Silva, 35’ claim reports
The Pretty Woman actor married his wife in April after four years of dating
RICHARD Gere is to become a dad again and is expecting his first child with his 35-year-old wife, it has been claimed.
The Pretty Woman actor, 68, married Spanish publicist Alejandra Silva in April after four years of dating.
Now, respected Spanish daily newspaper ABC is claiming his new wife - who is 33 years his junior - is pregnant with their first child.
The publication added it is not yet known if the baby would be born in Alejandra's native Spain, or in America, where the couple spend most of their time.
While the couple are yet to officially comment on the baby reports, both Richard and Alejandra already have children from previous relationships.
Richard has 18-year-old son Homer from his marriage to second wife Carey Lowell, while Alejandra has five-year-old son Alberto from her first marriage to Govind Friedland.
The actor - who will celebrate his 69th birthday at the end of this month - was also married to supermodel Cindy Crawford from 1991 until 1995, before tying the knot with Carey in 2002.
However they split up in September 2013, with their divorce being finalised in October 2016.
The couple met at a luxury Italian hotel Alejandra had bought with her former spouse and was managing at the time.
Following their wedding in Spain back in April, the couple had a blessing in the US near Richard's New York home.

"I felt like someone was stretching out his hand and showing me the true path."
