Richard Gere's career in the industry has been quite prolific. He started his career as a musician and went to college where he majored in Philosophy but had to drop out after getting a role in the rock musical Grease in 1973.

The "Pretty Woman" actor bought the house, formerly owned by Paul Simon and Edie Brickell, in 2022. He sold his previous home in Pound Ridge, N.Y. for $28 million.

As for why Gere and Silva are selling their Connecticut home, the former “Sexiest Man Alive” revealed plans to move to Spain earlier this year in an effort to be closer to Silva’s family.
