Hollywood actor Richard Gere has tied the knot for the third time in his life as he married his 35-year-old girlfriend Alejandra Silva at his ranch just outside New-York.
The Pretty Woman actor described himself as the happiest man in the world after marrying his Spanish activist wife.
Speaking in an interview with Hello magazine, he said; “I’m the happiest man in the universe.
“How could I not be? I’m married to a beautiful woman who is smart, sensitive, committed to helping people, who’s fun, patient, who knows how to forgive, who’s a great cook – and who makes the best salads in the world!
“Alejandra meditates, she’s a vegetarian, a great mother, has the touch of an angel and she’s also Spanish – the land of kings and queens, of Cervantes and Bunuel. You can’t get any better than that.”
The pair met after Gere stayed at a hotel owned by Silva’s family in Positano in Italy in 2014.
Silva who works as an activist runs a charity that aims to eradicate homelessness in Spain.
Silva who is enamored with the Hollywood star spoke on how they met;
“A friend introduced us, we looked at each other and felt a very strong connection.
“We couldn’t stop looking at each other all night, and since then we haven’t been apart.”
Gere was first married to supermodel Cindy Crawford from 1991 to 1995 and actress Carey Lowell from 2002-2016
