Richard Gere And Cindy Crawford
One of those iconic couples back in the day, Cindy Crawford and Richard Gere, were both at the pinnacle of their careers when they began dating. Cindy is a model featured in practically every magazine and walked in almost every fashion show in the late ’80s. On the other hand, Richard cemented his degree with roles in American Gigolo and Pretty Woman. He is 17 years older than her, but that did not stop them from becoming Hollywood’s new “it” pair.
Every couple has a unique backstory about how they met, and Cindy and Richard are no exception. The two met at the backyard BBQ of Herb Ritts. They started conversing and hit it off right away. At first, Gere was hesitant to marry Crawford. He believed it was too suburban, and he was concerned about making a mistake. However, he set those concerns aside on a whim, and the two married on December 12, 1991. Due to the last-minute nature of their wedding, Gere and Crawford sealed their vows with rings made of aluminum foil, but ended up parting ways in 1995 after four years of marriage.
