Supermodel Cindy Crawford and businessman Rande Gerber are considered one of the strongest celebrity couples.
They recently celebrated 25 years of marriage, but still look at each other with loving eyes. We decided to find out the history of their relationship,
and it turns out that they might not have met if the model’s ex-husband Richard Gere agreed to accompany her at someone else’s wedding.
From 1991 to 1995, Cindy Crawford was married to Richard Gere, who was 17 years older than her. The couple got married spontaneously: at one point,
the actor invited the model to go to Las Vegas and legalize the relationship. Cindy later admitted: ‘This was not the wedding I dreamed of. Everything happened suddenly, and I got married in a suit.
The suit wasn’t bad, but I never thought I’d walk down the aisle in a navy blue outfit. And my ring was actually made of foil.’
Marriage to Gere also did not bring happiness to the model.According to her, they practically did not spend time together.
Crawford said that this union was doomed to failure due to an imbalance of power: ‘I was 23 years old,
and I considered myself equal to him, since I also had some success … But in fact, he was already on a completely different level.’

One day, the model’s agent invited Gere and Crawford to his wedding. However, the Pretty Woman actor
did not want to honor the newlyweds with his presence, and the model went to the celebration alone. There she met Rande Gerber.
Crawford recalled: ‘At that time, I had no plans to meet anyone. But you know, this mood is exactly the best for dating. Because at this moment you are yourself.’
And since Cindy and Randy were in relationships with other people at the time, they just had to be friends.
‘I think that’s why everything worked out for us in the end, because we became friends first of all.
Only with him I didn’t have to pretend that I liked sports games or anything else,’ the model confessed.And only after breaking up with Gere, Crawford began a romantic relationship with Gerber.

In 1998, 32-year-old Cindy made a vow at the altar to 36-year-old Randy. It happened in the Bahamas, and the second wedding did not disappoint the young woman.
For her wedding dress, she chose a lingerie-style dress, but on her legs… she didn’t wear anything.
The model said the cherished ‘Yes’ to her lover, while being barefoot.’I wanted to look like the best version of the girl Randy loved waking up to in the morning,’
the celebrity explained her wedding look. And at the end of the celebration, the couple completely changed into bathing suits and went to the pool.
In 1999, the couple’s first child, Presley’s son, was born. Two years later, the model gave birth to baby Kaya, who was also destined to become a model.
The model gave birth to her children at home. According to her, she made this decision after a conversation with a yoga teacher for pregnant women.
But at the same time, Cindy says that she will not advise home birth to anyone, since it is not suitable for everyone.
She herself was under regular supervision by a midwife, starting from the 30th week of pregnancy.

When it came to housekeeping issues, Cindy admitted that she and her husband had ‘traditional’ responsibilities.
The model deals with cleaning, grocery shopping, meal planning, and the businessman is not shy about picking up tools if something needs fixing.
‘It’s impossible to force him to pick up even a wet towel, but if something needs repair, he will repair it.
For example, if the air conditioner doesn’t work, that’s Randy’s problem. Or if you need to mow the lawn,’ Cindy revealed the secrets of their distribution of responsibilities.
She herself enjoys cooking and calls herself a good cook.And it’s not hard to believe, considering
that the celebrity constantly shows pictures of different dishes on her social network page.

No matter how smooth the family life of Crawford and Gerber may seem, there were some difficult moments.
So, in 2004, a waitress at one of the famous evening establishments said that she had an affair with a businessman when he was already married to a model.
According to her, there was a kiss between them.
Insiders shared that this information was a big blow for Cindy.
The model’s acquaintances thought that she would leave Randy, but she was still able to forgive her husband.
Anonymous sources also reported that the couple visited a psychotherapist together. As Presley and Kaia grew older and began to disappear into the evenings,
as teenagers do, Cindy and Randy decided it was time to go on dates again. According to the model, it is very important to find time for romance, no matter how many years you have been married.

‘It’s a priority for us to go on dates. We find opportunities to simply spend time together, whether it’s a walk on the beach or a weekend getaway together.
We use irony at each other a lot, but at the same time, everyone respects their partner’s opinion. Even if we don’t see eye to eye on something.
When he doesn’t agree with my words, I’m all attention. I’m trying to hear him,’ said the model.
Cindy also shared that she is still fascinated by her husband: ‘I like the age-related changes in Randy’s appearance. Perhaps because I want him to like mine too.’
He, in turn, praises the attractiveness of his wife: ‘I truly have the most beautiful wife in the world.
I see her the same way I first met her. I still admire her in the morning and think how lucky I am.’
He also adds: ‘At heart she is still the same small town girl. The most important thing for her is caring for her family and the happiness of her loved ones.
She is so simple, despite her worldwide fame. She is one of those people who constantly gives without asking for anything in return. She means the world to me.’
In May 2023, the couple celebrated their 25th anniversary of marriage, which the model wrote about
on her social network page, expressing gratitude to life for her husband and beautiful children.
