Hollywood legend Richard Gere has made a shocking decision to leave the United States permanently. The 74-year-old actor has reportedly moved to Spain and declared that he will never return to his home country. According to sources close to Gere, his decision is largely influenced by the growing power and influence of billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk.
Gere, known for his roles in Pretty Woman and An Officer and a Gentleman, has long been an advocate for human rights and progressive causes. He has expressed concerns about the direction of the U.S., citing Musk’s growing control over technology, social media, and space exploration as reasons for his departure.
“Elon Musk is reshaping America in a way that I can no longer support,” Gere allegedly stated. “I refuse to live in a country dominated by a man who prioritizes wealth and power over human values.”
The actor has chosen Spain as his new home, a country he has frequently visited and admired for its culture and lifestyle. He and his wife, Spanish publicist Alejandra Silva, are expected to settle in Madrid or a quiet coastal town.
Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has yet to respond to Gere’s statements. However, his influence on American politics, media, and innovation continues to spark controversy.
Gere’s move has ignited debates on social media, with some praising his decision and others calling it an overreaction. Regardless, the veteran actor seems determined to begin a new chapter of his life far from the United States.
