The news was revealed by Richard Gere’s family.

While Richard was in Mexico celebrating his wife Alejandra Silva’s 40th birthday, Alejandra posted an update on Richard’s health on Instagram.

She revealed in the post that he wasn’t the only one in the family who had been sick for “weeks.” Richard was in Mexico to help his wife Alejandra Silva celebrate her 40th birthday.

The Spanish publicist shared a photo of herself on the beach with the actor’s two children – their two sons were born in 2019 and 2020, respectively – and said everyone was on the mend. The photo was accompanied by a message stating that everyone was fine.
