Silva had announced her pregnancy last September via an Instagram post that hashtagged both her husband and the Dalai Lama. It read: “A very special moment just a few minutes ago… Getting blessings for our precious to come… we couldn’t announce it before telling HH Dalai Lama #dalailama #richardgere #alejandragere #love.”
Silva and Gere married last year in a secret ceremony. This is Gere’s third marriage. He first tied the knot with supermodel Cindy Crawford, to whom he was married from 1991 to 1995.
The actor later welcomed his only son with second wife Lowell, whom he wed in 2002 before a contentious divorce that was finalized in 2016 after they separated in 2013.
