Pierce Brosnan and Keely Shaye Smith crossed paths in Mexico back in 1994, while the actor was still grieving the loss of his first wife, Cassandra Harris, who had succumbed to ovarian cancer in 1991. Despite the difficult circumstances, Smith remained a pillar of understanding and support for Brosnan, who has often acknowledged her unwavering presence in his life. Brosnan has described Smith as his “North Star,” always watching over him and inspiring him with her kindness and compassion. You can read about their love story in this article.

Following their initial encounter, Brosnan and Smith went on their first date just a few days later. The two spent the evening under the stars, holding hands and engaging in heartfelt conversation until the early hours of the morning. From that moment forward, they made a concerted effort to remain together, refusing to be separated from each other. It’ wasn’t the first time when a celebrity fell in love with a regular person.

After spending almost 7 years together, Brosnan and Smith made the decision to exchange vows and become husband and wife. The couple’s intimate and private ceremony held in Ireland took place in 2001.

Having been married for over two decades, Brosnan and Smith continue to exhibit the behaviors of newlyweds, frequently holding hands, hugging, and sharing kisses. According to Smith, the key to maintaining a joyful and fulfilling marriage is to prioritize friendship above all else. The difference of 10 years also didn’t become a hindrance to them.

Alongside their romantic partnership, Brosnan and Smith have collaborated on several projects together. Notably, they produced a documentary titled Poisoning Paradise, which highlights the harmful effects of chemical pesticides on Hawaii’s environment.

Smith successfully established a connection with Brosnan’s three children from his prior marriage, and the couple later welcomed 2 sons of their own, Dylan and Paris. Following the birth of their children, Smith experienced weight gain, which recently resulted in her becoming the target of cruel body-shaming comments from online trolls. A viral Facebook post shared an old photo of Brosnan and his wife from the 90s alongside a current picture, with the intention of highlighting the perceived changes in the couple’s bodies.

In response to hurtful comments directed at his wife, Brosnan spoke out against the inappropriate and disrespectful behavior. Even though the original post was removed, the actor felt compelled to defend his beloved partner, “Friends offered her surgery to reduce her weight. But I strongly love every curve of her body. She is the most beautiful woman in my eyes. And also because she had our 5 children.” Earlier, we made a compilation of celebrity men who are also not afraid to show love to their partners.

Despite facing criticism regarding her weight, Smith remains unfazed and self-assured. In a 2006 interview with Vogue, she said, “I never shy away from ... my curves. I never hide in baggy clothing.” It’s possible that Brosnan’s love and unwavering support play a significant role in Smith’s confidence.
