Let’s talk about love, folks. On July 19th, Pierce Brosnan showed the world what true love looks like by celebrating 25 incredible years with his wife, Keely Shaye Smith. Now, that’s something to celebrate, right? The legendary actor didn’t just keep it to himself—he posted a heartwarming photo on Instagram of himself hugging his partner, both sharing a laugh that speaks volumes about their bond.
“Thank you for the love, my love of these past 25 years, onwards… ?❤️,” Pierce captioned the sweet post. At 65 years old, Pierce’s love story is nothing short of inspiring. He and Keely started dating in the mid-1990s, and they officially tied the knot in August 2001. But before Keely came into his life, Pierce had a deep and lasting relationship with Cassandra Harris, who tragically passed away from ovarian cancer in December 1980, just 11 years into their marriage.

For Pierce, losing Cassandra was one of the hardest experiences of his life. But Keely came into his life at the right time and helped him heal in ways he never thought possible. “You have to trust and follow your heart,” Pierce once shared with Closer Weekly. “When Keely looks at me, I go weak. I love her vitality, her passion. She has this strength that I simply couldn’t live without.”
From Journalist to Love of His Life
Unlike her famous husband, Keely prefers to stay out of the Hollywood spotlight. As a former journalist, she met Pierce in the 90s, just a couple of years after Cassandra’s passing. At the time, Pierce was unsure if he could ever love again. But something about Keely made him take a chance—and boy, did it pay off. From the moment they met, it was clear that they had a connection that would last a lifetime.

According to an insider speaking with Closer, Keely has been nothing short of a blessing in Pierce’s life. “She has been a supportive and wonderful addition to his life,” the source revealed. “Keely is understanding of his past, is not threatened by it, and is just a truly loving presence.” It’s clear that their bond is built on trust, respect, and mutual admiration.
As Pierce and Keely celebrate their silver anniversary, it’s a reminder that love can blossom at any time, even when we least expect it. So here’s to Pierce and Keely—may their love continue to grow stronger with every passing year!
