Pierce Brosnan Defends His Wife From Internet Trolls Who Are Fat-Shaming Her
For Brosnan, his wife is the most beautiful woman.
Pierce Brosnan has long had a reputation as one of Hollywood's most charming leading men, but his real-life love story is what keeps people talking. The former James Bond star has spent decades with his wife, Keely Shaye Smith, and he has never been shy about showing it.
That devotion has also made the couple a target for online cruelty, especially when strangers decide to comment on Smith's appearance.
Now the internet is talking again, and Brosnan is still standing firmly by her side.
Indeed he is!

Their love for each other started blooming in 1994 when he starred in Mrs. Doubtfire.
Brosnan's first wife, Cassandra Harris, passed away from ovarian cancer. He became a single father to children Chris and Charlotte, whom he adopted after marrying Harris.
Smith and Pierce first met in Mexico at a party. At the time, Smith was a TV reporter.
