75-year-old Richard Gere couldn’t take his eyes off his 41-year-old partner, Alejandra, as they arrived together at the premiere of the film “The Wisdom of Happiness.” The screening took place on October 8 as part of the 20th Zurich Film Festival at Corso. The couple walked the red carpet, happily posing for photographers and openly expressing their affection in public. For the event, Alejandra wore a stunning wedding dress designed by Spanish designer Teresa Helbig, adorned with white mesh detailing.
“This look embodies the essence of the Helbigbride style: a stunning, sophisticated design with a hint of playfulness,” Teresa told HELLO! in 2022 about the dress. “The romantic and elegant design features a slightly flared silhouette and is made from cotton fabric with multiple layered overlays.”
Gere has never shied away from publicly expressing his admiration for his wife. At the Venice Film Festival in early 2024, he stopped on the red carpet to bow to Alejandra on one knee, moving her to tears and prompting a sweet laugh in front of the cameras.
The Hollywood actor and Spanish journalist met in 2015 and married in 2018. They have two sons: 5-year-old Alexander and 4-year-old James. Alejandra also has a 9-year-old son, Albert, from her previous marriage to Govind Friedland, while Richard has a 24-year-old son, Homer, from his former marriage to Carey Lowell.
