Cindy Crawford Makes Rare Comments About Her Marriage To Richard Gere

etcanada.com:

More than 30 years after they tied the knot, Cindy Crawford is looking back on her short-lived marriage to Richard Gere. In the newly released Apple TV+ docuseries, “The Super Models”, the now-57-year-old runway icon reflected on her 22-year-old self when she met the movie star.

The two tied the knot in 1991 and announced their separation three years later. “In the beginning of a relationship, when you’re a young woman, you’re like, ‘You like baseball?

I like baseball. You’re really into Tibetan Buddhism? I might be into that. I’ll try that,” she said, referencing Gere’s longtime practice of the religion.

Added Crawford, “You’re willing to kind of mold yourself around whoever you are in love with.” Crawford’s supermodel days also shifted during her marriage to Gere, as she veered away from “the fashion elite” and took charge of other career opportunities, like her famed Pepsi commercial. “He was older, so I just was like in a different circle,” she recalled, “and not doing some of those same fashiony things anymore.” Still, she unforgettably brought the style to the 1991 Oscars, her first time attending the awards show. “If I’m going to go to the Oscars, I better be a freaking supermodel,” she recalled thinking at a time when stars were not embracing glamour.
