Richard Gere is one of those actors who loves to keep his personal life private. However, he recently made a spectacular appearance on the red carpet. The 74-year-old actor appeared with his 41-year-old wife and 24-year-old son, Homer. The young man immediately attracted everyone’s attention.
The father-son duo looked exceptionally dapper in their elegant black suits, complemented by matching bow ties and crisp white dress shirts. Radiating charm, they delighted cameras with their warm smiles and shared a heartfelt embrace.
Fans online were surprised by how handsome Homer looked. One person gushed, saying, “Wow, his son is so good-looking!” Another described him as a “Beautiful guy!” A third person observed, “His son is more handsome than Dad […]”
Homer was born in February 2000, and he shared his name with his grandfather, Richard Gere’s dad, who passed away in 2023 at 100 years old. His mother is Gere’s second ex-wife, model and actress Carey Lowell.
Homer Gere attended Hackley School in Tarrytown, New York, and later graduated from Brown University in May 2024 with a Bachelor of Arts in psychology and visual art, as per his LinkedIn profile. Since September 2022, he has been working as a research assistant in the therapeutic neuroscience lab at an Ivy League School of Public Health.
In a March 2024 interview with Vanity Fair Spain, Richard Gere mentioned that Homer Gere struggles to comprehend his father’s fame. Richard said, “It’s hard for him to see me on screen because, even when I play extreme characters, I’m still his father, making it hard for him to get into the story.”
Richard also revealed that Homer is beginning to follow in his footsteps by exploring his acting and musical talents. “He has just started acting and seems to enjoy it,” Richard noted. “He’s been writing and directing small films, giving us a new shared interest.”
Moreover, Richard emphasized the importance of his children learning to play an instrument. Homer initially chose the piano as a child but eventually quit. He then switched to drums, which he also didn’t stick with for long. However, a few years ago, he began playing in his own band in college and is now a vocalist in a punk band.
Another celebrity child who attracts a lot of attention is Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s daughter, Shiloh. She has taken social media by storm with her dancing.
The Great Ketchup Debate: To Refrigerate or Not to Refrigerate?
It can be really confusing to walk through the aisles of our favorite grocery shop and figure out what food items require refrigeration and what doesn’t.
It is reasonable to believe that if a product isn’t refrigerated in stores, it also doesn’t need to be at home. That isn’t always the case, though.
A modest word in fine type can be found on the labels of many products on grocery store shelves if we look closely: “refrigerate after opening.” Sadly, not everyone takes note of this small directive, and even those who do sometimes decide to disregard it. Ketchup is an excellent illustration of this.
The popular ketchup brand, Heinz, actually advises chilling their product as soon as you bring it inside. You may be asking yourself, “But why does ketchup need to be refrigerated when I see bottles of it sitting on the store shelves?” Heinz wants you to know that it’s all for the best, though.
This ketchup conundrum intrigued me, so I decided to look into it directly. I grabbed a bottle of Heinz ketchup from my own kitchen and read the label carefully. And there it was—the warning to “For best results, refrigerate after opening”—subtly printed in small text on the label on the reverse. Thus, the recommendation is clear: refrigeration is advised.
Were you aware that Heinz addressed this issue on Twitter as well? The message on their short tweet said, “FYI: Ketchup goes in the fridge!!!” This tweet grabbed the attention of people all over social media and started a heated debate among ketchup lovers.
Heinz even went so far as to survey people about how they keep their ketchup in storage at home. The outcomes were really intriguing. Of all the people who use ketchup, 36.8% keep it in a cabinet and 63.2% keep it in the refrigerator.
It’s intriguing to learn the motivations behind some people’s decisions to disregard refrigeration recommendations. They contend that ketchup tastes good even when kept at room temperature and that it doesn’t spoil readily. The good news is that you can keep your ketchup fresher for longer by refrigerating it, which will increase its shelf life.
Thus, keep in mind what Heinz suggests if you’re still not sure if you should refrigerate your ketchup. And why not follow the rest of us and store that bottle of ketchup in the refrigerator, nice and cold? It’s a simple method to guarantee that your favorite condiment remains flavorful and fresh.
