In March, Alejandra took to Instagram to acknowledge her stepson Homer. "In these times, especially if you live in the city, it is so difficult to be able to enjoy the basic pleasures that nature offers us — for me, the ones I value the most and those I want to instill in my family," she penned in Spanish. She dedicated the post to "our beloved Homer Gere."

The family also embarked on a memorable trip for Silva's 40th birthday. Unfortunately, they all fell ill during the vacation.

Alejandra later shared a heartwarming photo of her strolling towards the ocean, hand-in-hand with her two boys, on a pristine beach.

"Thank you all for the birthday wishes.. after almost 3 weeks of everyone being sick in our family today finally I feel much better! Thank you for all the love I give it all back to you! #happybirthday #happy40," she expressed.

Richard and Alejandra tied the knot on 5 May 2018, four years after their first encounter in Positano in 2014. The couple shared their wedding day exclusively with HELLO! Magazine.

"I'm the happiest man in the universe. How could I not be? I'm married to a beautiful woman who is smart, sensitive, committed to helping people, who's fun, patient, who knows how to forgive, who's a great cook – and who makes the best salads in the world!" Richard shared, brimming with joy.

Richard marries Alejandra

"Alejandra meditates, she's a vegetarian, a great mother, has the touch of an angel... and she's also Spanish: the land of kings and queens, of Cervantes and Buñuel... You can't get any better than that."

Alejandra reciprocated the sentiments, saying, "I never thought I'd find a man so perfect for me. I have no words to describe my happiness."
