Keely Shaye Smith, the wife of Pierce Brosnan, highlighted her slimmer figure in a satin slip dress while posing for a heartwarming family photograph on Sunday.
The 63-year-old actress and writer looked elegant in the purple gown as she stood beside her mother, Sharon, to mark her 82nd birthday.
Pierce Brosnan, 73, also attended the celebration, joined by the couple’s sons, Dylan, 29, and Paris, 25. The James Bond star and Keely have been married for 25 years.
The family gathered in front of Sharon’s birthday cake, which was topped with a cluster of candles, and smiled for the camera.
Keely shared the photograph on Instagram, writing: ‘Please join me in wishing a very Happy 82nd Birthday to my beloved mother Sharon Rose!’
She has been embracing her slimmer figure publicly since 2024, with reports suggesting she has lost approximately 100lbs (45kg).
In a 2006 interview with Vogue, the actress said: ‘I never shy away from… my curves. I never hide in baggy clothing.’
Pierce, the celebrated 007 actor, has also defended his wife in the past after a social media troll drew attention to changes in her appearance.

The couple, who married in 2001, are pictured together in 2018
‘I strongly love every curve of her body. She is the most beautiful woman in my eyes. And also because she had our children,’ he said.
‘In the past, I truly loved her for her person, not only for her beauty, and now I’m loving her even more that she is my children’s mother. And I am very proud of her, and I always seek to be worthy of her love.’
Keely previously told People that she was immediately captivated when she met the Bond actor, recalling that he had a ‘mischievous sparkle in his eyes’.
In the same interview, the MobLand star said of his wife: ‘I found a great woman in Keely Shaye. Not if I searched a million times over would I find one as good.’
Last year, Brosnan said Keely still makes his ‘world turn’, telling Fox News: ‘She still makes my heart sing and she still makes my world turn.

‘She allows me to go out into the world and create what I do as an actor, and that takes strength and stamina. We just enjoy each other’s company.’
Keely was also defended by fans in January after a social media troll posted side-by-side comparison photographs of the couple.
One picture showed them attending the Governors Ball for the Academy Awards in 1996, while the second was taken at the Mamma Mia! premiere in 2008.
The troll shared the images as a ‘reminder to avoid marriage’.
One X user pushed back, writing: ‘I don’t get some men on X devotion to degrade Brosnan’s wife. They’re both happy, aging gracefully, and she was and is absolutely gorgeous.’
Another wrote: ‘Pierce Brosnan’s won the lottery of life. Dude’s been married 30 years and they’ve both aged gracefully.’
Keely has been showcasing her slimmer frame since 2024, and it has been rumored that she has dropped 100lbs (seen earlier this month)
Last month, Pierce and Keely attended the premiere of Seniors in LA alongside their two sons and their girlfriends
Brosnan is also father to son Sean, 43, whom he had with first wife Cassandra Harris, who passed away in 1991 at age 43 following a battle with ovarian cancer.
The actor adopted Harris’s two other children, Christopher and Charlotte, from her previous relationship. In 2013, Charlotte passed away at age 41 from ovarian cancer.
Pierce and Keely first crossed paths in 1994 while attending a party in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
After welcoming their two sons, they tied the knot in August 2001 during a romantic ceremony in Ireland.
In August, the couple celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary, with Keely sharing a series of snaps of the pair from over the years on Instagram.
She also penned in the caption: ‘Happy 25th wedding anniversary my love! What an adventure life is with you. Looking forward to the next 25 years beside you @piercebrosnanofficial.’
Last month, the couple made a rare appearance together as they attended the Los Angeles premiere of Seniors alongside their two sons and their girlfriends.
