Cindy Crawford talks failed marriage to Richard Gere

“I don’t know if we were ever friends”

Cindy Crawford has opened up about her past marriage to Richard Gere, admitting that the actor is “like a stranger to her.”

The supermodel was 26 when she tied the knot with the then 42-year-old actor in 1991.

“I didn’t think I was young, though, but I was young,” Cindy said during an appearance on WTF podcast.

“I was with Richard for, like, six years, but I was only married for two.”

They officially split four years after marrying in 1995.

When asked if they’re now on good terms, she said, “We’re friendly, but I think it’s almost like he’s gone back to being, like, ‘Richard Gere’ again, like a stranger, because we don’t really see each other that much.”

“I think part of the problem in our relationship was that we were a lot of other things, but I don’t know if we were ever friends – like peers, because I was young, and he was Richard Gere.”

“And then, as I started kind of growing up and growing into myself – it’s hard to change the nature of a relationship once you’re already in it.”
