How Did Gere’s Ex-Wife Divorce Him for a Party Life?

It was said that the pair decided to split because of their differing worldviews. Gere is a Buddhist and prefers privacy, whereas his ex-wife enjoys socializing and rubbing shoulders with big celebrities.

Following their divorce announcement, rumors began to fly about the divorce settlement that was ahead of the couple. Sources confirmed that even in divorce, they could not seem to reach an agreement.

While Lowell believed she should get $100 million of Gere’s $250 million fortune, he strongly disagreed. She made the argument that she had given up her career for Gere’s career and for their son, Homer.
