Richard Gere was born Richard Tiffany Gere on 31 August 1949 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. His father, Homer George Gere, worked in insurance, and his mother, Doris Ann Tiffany, was a stay-at-home mum. He was the oldest boy and second child in the family and was loved by all.

He was born in Philadelphia but moved to Syracuse, New York, with his family when he was young. He attended North Syracuse Central High School, where his teachers and friends quickly realized he had a special talent.

After finishing high school, he went to the University of Massachusetts Amherst. He was such a talented gymnast that he received a scholarship to attend.

After dropping out of college, he went to the Seattle Repertory Theatre, where he got his first job.

In 1969, he moved to the Provincetown Playhouse on Cape Cod and starred in productions such as Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead.

In 1973, Gere made his first big appearance on stage in the original production of Grease in London’s West End.

His first role was in 1974’s The Lords of Flatbush, but he left the cast after an argument with co-star Sylvester Stallone.

But this didn’t stop him. In 1977, he appeared in Looking for Mr. Goodbar and starred in Terrence Malick’s critically acclaimed Days of Heaven.

During this time, he became a huge star, and everyone wanted to know about him. He was also known for being attractive to women and having many girlfriends. During this time, he was romantically linked with famous women such as Susan Sarandon, Tuesday Weld, Carole Mallory, Dawn Steel, Loree Rodkin, Diane von Furstenberg, Barbara Carrera, and Barbra Streisand.

He was also linked to famous faces such as Laura Bailey, Tina Chow, Dalila Di Lazzaro, and Padma Lakshmi.

For years, people have wondered about Richard Gere’s love life. They even started calling him “Mr. Grey” because of his appearance. But he finally confirmed that he was dating supermodel Cindy Crawford.
