In 2019, Richard Gere and his wife Alejandra Silva became parents to a boy. A year later a second son was born. Although these are the couple’s first children together, they both bring experience from previous marriages into raising them.
Gere has a 22-year-old son named Homer James Jigme from his previous marriage to Carey Lowell. Richard Gere rose to fame through outstanding performances in films such as “Pretty Woman” and “An Officer and a Gentleman.”
Before his marriage to Silva, he was married to model and actress Cindy Crawford, with whom he was frequently seen on the red carpet and on magazine covers, before they separated after four years.
Seven years after this divorce, Gere married Carey Lowell and had his son Homer with her. During his relationship with Crawford, he had no desire to have children, unlike with Lowell. Homer was already known to the public at an early age due to his prominent parents.
When Gere’s marriage to Lowell ended in 2003, the family’s private life was heavily discussed in the media. Homer, who has a half-sister from his mother’s previous marriage, became big brother last year to another half-brother born to Alejandra Silva.
Homer himself leads a rather withdrawn life in New York and inherits not only his father’s charm, but also his attractive looks. Although he normally avoids publicity, he made a few public appearances with both parents as a child.
Weatherman Stops Broadcasting To Save Woman Stuck In Deadly Hurricane Helene Flood
Weatherman Bob Van Dillen likely knew it was going to be an eventful night covering Hurricane Helene for Fox as the Category 4 storm made landfall, but he couldn’t have imagined just how eventful it would get.
Van Dillen was doing a live national standup in Atlanta early this morning with a flooded roadway as a backdrop.
“You can see right here we’ve got this lady that drove into the area that’s flooded out and she’s screaming right now,” he told the Fox & Friends studio hosts. After describing the scene for a few more seconds with the sound of the woman’s voice in the background, Van Dillen told the audience, “I just called 911. The fire department is coming.”
He then turned to try and comfort the woman assuring her help is on the way before cutting his live shot short, telling the studio, “It’s a situation. We’ll get back to you in a bit. I’m going to see if I can help this lady out.”
Cut to video of Van Dillen carrying the woman on his back through chest deep floodwaters before literally giving her the shirt off his back so she could get warm.
Van Dillen wasn’t the only hero who braved the storm.
A U.S. Coastguard rescue helicopter flew out into the hurricane to save a man and his dog on a disabled sailboat.
Elsewhere, on Atlanta resident was caught on video using a sleeping air mattress as a life raft as rescue workers patrolled the chest-high floodwaters saving people.
