Richard Gere returns to US for Fourth of July after moving family to Spain

Oh, America.

Richard Gere and his family returned to the United States to celebrate the Fourth of July in New York City after relocating to Spain.

On Saturday, the “Pretty Woman” actor’s wife, Alejandra Silva, took to Instagram to share snaps of their family enjoying the holiday near the Statue of Liberty.

“Deeply grateful for a life built between two countries, two cultures, and so many people we love,” she captioned the joint post.

“Today, we celebrate connection, family, friendship, and everything that reminds us that home is not only a place, but the people we carry in our hearts,” the publicist, 43, added.

“Happy Fourth of July to our family and friends across the United States. ❤🤍💙.”

In the snaps, the couple posed with their two youngest sons, Alexander, 7, and James, 6, while on a boat riding next to the historical landmark, which is a universal symbol of freedom and democracy.

In other photos in the carousel, the boys played with rocks on the beach and watched a fireworks show.

In 2024, Gere, 76, revealed he and his family were relocating to Silva’s home country, Spain.

“My wife is Spanish and she gave me about seven years here and so, we’re going to spend some years in Madrid,” the actor explained on the “Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.”

“Our kids are bilingual, so they’re going to flourish there,” he added.

In an exclusive interview with Page Six last year, Gere said his wife was “so happy” to be living at home.

“Her family is there, her culture is there, [our] youngest kids are growing up there, their Spanish is perfect,” he told us.

The “American Gigolo” star and Silva quietly tied the knot in 2018 after four years of dating.

Gere is also a dad to son Homer, from his marriage to Carey Lowell, while Silva shares son Albert with her ex-husband, Govind Friedland.
