Split: Richard Gere and his wife Carey Lowell
Hollywood star Richard Gere and his wife Carey Lowell have separated and are planning on divorcing.
According to reports in the US the couple, who have been together for 18 years, split after growing apart over their different lifestyles.
The 64-year-old heartthrob is said to crave privacy pursuing his work for ecological causes and AIDS awareness.
Former Bond Girl Carey, 52, however enjoys “socializing with other bigwigs.”
A source said: “They have a place in up state New York which Richard loves as it is so quiet and it brings him a lot of solitude.
“Carey likes being elsewhere in the limelight. She is very sociable and although very much respects what Richard likes she loves being around people.”
The couple, who tied the knot in the November 2002 after dating for seven years, haven’t been seen together since the beginning of the year.
The most recent time was at the Golden Globe Awards in January.
No information of when the couple plan to divorce has been revealed.
The actor is said to be worth more than £30million while between them they have several expensive properties including one valued at more than £40million.
The couple have a 13-year-old son called Homer James Jigme Gere, named after Gere’s father, as well as the Tibetan name Jigme.
Last October Gere, a devout Buddhist, hit the headlines after a jealous husband berated him for allegedly chatting up his wife.
The American Gigolo star was at Nick & Toni’s diner in East Hampton when it is claimed he approached the pretty blonde.
Her husband became so incensed by Gere’s flirting he screamed “Get the f*** out of here”.
The actor married Carey, who appeared alongside Timothy Dalton in License to Kill in 1989, seven years after splitting in 1995 from his first wife Cindy Crawford.
He was married to the supermodel for fours years.
Soon after his secret wedding to Carey he said: “She’s changed my life. And marriage does have meaning, if you do it from your heart. It is a milestone for us both.”
Carey has been married three times. Her first husband was fashion photographer John Stember, who she split from in 1988.
A year later she married actor Griffin Dunne.
A spokesperson for Richard has declined to comment.
