He’s still got it.

The main man from Pretty Woman, Richard Gene is expecting his first child with his wife, Alejandra Silva.

The 68-year-old married his Spanish wife this year after four years together.

This will be their first child together, however they both have children of their own already.

Richard is father to 18-year-old Homer whom he had with his ex-wife Carey Lowell.

Alejandra is mum to 5-year-old Alberto from her previous marriage to Govind Friedland.

Spanish newspaper ABC broke the couple’s baby news today but they haven’t yet commented on the reports.

Richard and Alejandra met in 2014 in an Italian hotel that the Spanish activist managed. Unlike other celebrity couples, they were able to keep their relationship a secret for nearly a year.

They tied the knot this year in Spain and had an Indian-inspired blessing ceremony at Richard’s ranch just outside New York.

Alejandra is Richard’s third wife. He was previously married to supermodel Cindy Crawford from 1991 to 1995.

The American actor then tied the knot with Carey Lowell in 2002. They separated in 2013 and got divorced in 2016.

Both Richard and his new wife Alejandra put a lot of time into charity work.

He founded The Gere Foundation which researches ways to prevent cancer and HIV and Alejandra runs the RAIS Foundation in Spain, a charity that campaigns for the rights of homeless people.
