Richard Gere is loving his new life in Spain with his wife, Alejandra Silva, and their two kids.
“My wife is so happy there,” he gushed to Page Six at the City Harvest Annual Gala in New York City Tuesday night.
“Her family is there, her culture is there, [our] youngest kids are growing up there, their Spanish is perfect,” he added.
When asked if he abides by the adage, “Happy wife, happy life,” he quipped, “Yeah, I wanted you to say that, not me!”
Last November, the “Pretty Woman” star, 75, revealed that he and Silva, 42, were moving back to her native country.
“My wife is Spanish and she gave me about seven years here, so we’re going to spend some years in Madrid,” he told Jimmy Fallon on “The Tonight Show.”
Gere explained that Silva grew up surrounded by a massive Spanish family where her grandmother was “kind of the glue that held all together.”
When her grandmother passed away, he noticed that Silva was “morphing into the new grandmother” of their extended family.”
“She’s already planning for 35 people for Sunday lunches,” he added.
The couple began dating in 2014 before tying the knot at Gere’s Pound Ridge estate in 2018.
The following year, they welcomed a son named Alexander, and in 2020, she gave birth to another son named James.
The “American Gigolo” star also has a son named Homer, 25, with his ex-wife, Carey Lowell. Silva also has a son from a previous marriage.
Homer tagged along with his dad and stepmom to the gala, which raised enough to provide more than 8.5 million meals for hungry New Yorkers.
Other celebs at the shindig included Jason Biggs, Katie Couric, Christian Siriano and a slew of chefs.
