CAREY LOWELL, 2002 TO 2017

Gere stayed wifeless for a while before tying the knot with actress Carey Lowell in 2002. The pair would have one son, Homer Gere. After just over a decade, they announced plans to divorce in 2013.

The two had a messy court battle for Gere's multiple-million fortune that lasted four long years. The terms of the divorce settlement remain confidential due to New York State law.
