Richard Gere and his spouse, Alejandra Silva, are already enthusiastic about returning to the US after packing up and shifting to Spain.

However simply months after their trans-Atlantic relocation, Silva revealed that the pair is already planning on returning to the US.
“For a few years and then come back [to America]. But we’re always coming back,” Silva instructed Day by day Mail when requested if she is planning to remain in Madrid completely.
“We’ll come back here in the summer because we have the kids at camp. We just have to balance our lives there and here. I’m with my family… You know, I missed them a lot. But I miss the US. So we come back and forth.”
Silva’s sentiment was echoed by Gere’s son Homer, who instructed the outlet that he’s eager for his dad to return to the US.
“I’ve been told they’re going to move back within the next few years, so hopefully that’s the case because I miss them here,” mentioned Homer, whom Gere shares along with his ex-wife Carey Lowell.
“It’s the same people. Just a different place. It doesn’t change the world. Spain’s beautiful,” the 25-year-old mentioned, denying that the household “escaped because of politics.”
After promoting their sprawling $10.75 million mansion, Gere and Silva settled down in Madrid with their sons Alexander, 6, and James, 4, in addition to Silva’s son Albert, 11.

“We’re in a very dark place in America, where we have a bully, a thug, who’s the president of the United States. But it’s not just in the U.S., it’s everywhere,” Gere mentioned whereas accepting an award from fellow Hollywood star Antonio Banderas.
“We’re all part of a universe of overlapping pain and sadness and joy. … I see this world that we’re in now forgetting that,” he mentioned. “This very foolish tribalism is starting to take us over, where we think that we’re all separate from each other.”
“And we have unfortunately elected officials that don’t inspire us in the way that we want to be inspired. I’m coming from a place now … we’re in a very dark place in America where we have a bully and a thug who is the president of the United States. But it’s not just in the U.S., it’s everywhere.”
