Cindy Crawford and Richard Gere‘s children are proof that the past does not disrupt the future!
The couple, one of Hollywood’s biggest in the 90s, made headlines during their relationship, which lasted less than a decade. The pair raised eyebrows with the significant age gap between them, which ultimately contributed to their split.
Over three decades later, Cindy Crawford and Richard Gere’s names are back in the spotlight. This time, not just for themselves but thanks to their children, who now work together.
Kaia Gerber and Homer Gere were serving looks, poise, and glam as they posed together for a recent Vogue cover issue. The nepo babies channeled their famous parents, who also did Vogue photoshoots together 34 years ago at the peak of their relationship.
In case you didn’t know, Gerber’s mom, Crawford, was married to Homer’s father from 1991 to 1995 when they were making big splashes in Hollywood. The industry stars have since moved on to other relationships and welcomed their respective children.
In his first big interview, Homer told Vogue how they addressed the issue of their parents’ doomed romance. He recalled that they met at a Los Angeles watering hole where he outright asked if they should “address the fact that our parents were married.” The matter did not linger on between them as Gerber simply responded, “Yeah. Cool,” and that was it.
Is This Pairing Destiny or Déjà Vu?
The matter that Homer and Gerber simply put to bed in just two sentences continues to dwell on the minds and tongues of many. Ryan Murphy cast the pair for his new show “The Shards,” which he co-created with acclaimed novelist Bret Easton Ellis.
Homer confessed that being placed alongside his father’s ex’s daughter in the show probably “seems too on the nose,” according to The Daily Mail.
Being photographed together for the Vogue cover is also a full-circle Hollywood moment. The nepo babies found themselves in front of Steven Meisel’s camera nearly 34 years after their parents made the magazine’s cover for the November 1992 issue.
Crawford and Richard’s Vogue cover was shot by the legendary Herb Ritts, at whose home the couple was first introduced during a barbecue in the late 1980s.
Gerber’s resemblance to her mom in their new cover is quite uncanny, shining through her bright smile and dark hair. Homer, on the other hand, has Richard’s casual swag, channeling 1990s fashion with his blue jeans, dress shirt, blazer, and tie.
‘The Shards’ Casting Brought The Entertainers To See Its ‘A Small Word’
Who would have thought that, of all the stars in Hollywood to be featured on the drama series, Crawford and Richard’s children would get the part? Entertainment Weekly detailed that “The Shards” is set in 1981 and follows a group of Los Angeles prep school students who must navigate a friendship with a mysterious newcomer while trying to avoid the grip of a vicious serial killer.
The rising progenies of Hollywood big names got to work together on the project series that missed their parents’ marriage by nearly a decade. At the movie premiere, Gerber expressed her excitement to meet Richard, describing the casting as “such a small world.”
Homer talked about the casting at the premiere as well, explaining that the odds were very funny. He also praised his costar for her phenomenal job in the serial killer thriller. “She’s a lovely actress and person, and we’ve gotten really close. So it’s been really a pleasure to work with her,” the actor gushed.
Kaia Gerber And Homer Gere Have A Good Working Relationship
The rising star’s failed parents’ romance has got nothing on them as they work to pave their own paths in the industry. The pair had never met prior to being cast alongside each other in the 2026 coming-of-age thriller despite their parent’s history.
Homer exclusively told E! News that they met at a bar about two weeks before the cameras started rolling. The movie stars hung out with other cast members, which marked the beginning of a friendship and a harmonious working relationship.
Gerber also spoke highly of Homer, sharing that it had been a lovely experience working with him on the project. Their bond transcended mere coworkers into a beautiful friendship their parents’ doomed past has no hold on.
“He’s so wonderful. He’s so funny. He makes me laugh so hard, and he’s the greatest scene partner ever. And really, it’s such a supportive environment, and we’ve gotten so close over this process,” the model told media outlets about her costar.
Inside Cindy Crawford And Richard Gere’s Whirlwind Romance
Crawford was an acclaimed supermodel in the 90s when she met Richard, who was already an A-lister in Hollywood. The pair met at a mutual friend’s party in 1988 when the model was just 21, and Richard was well into his 30s.
Crawford admitted to being starstruck when she met Gere for the first time. They bonded over conversation and shared likes before they rose to become one of Hollywood’s power couples in their time.
Despite wagging tongues, particularly about their 17-year age gap, the former lovebirds stepped out together for different public events, turning heads.
They eloped in 1991 to Las Vegas and secretly tied the knot with aluminum foil rings at the altar. Crawford recalled it as a spontaneous decision, revealing that she did not even get a wedding dress.
As reported by InStyle, their union ended in 1995, and the model maintains their union was short-lived due to their age difference and very busy schedules.
Will Cindy Crawford and Richard Gere’s past romance ever affect their kids?
