We’re already so used to specific Hollywood romance stereotypes by now.
There are adorable young couples who happily showcase their blossoming love on social media, actors who engage in clandestine on-set relationships while facing allegations of adultery, and a mature gentleman in his sixties or seventies who openly embraces a beautiful woman half his age in a romantic relationship.
We observe these paradigms in a passive manner and embrace them as the standard instead of questioning them.
It was widely expected by most onlookers that Pierce Brosnan would come in last in this particular category, just like many other professionals in his field.
Even though he met the criteria, he cleverly and confidently questioned these assumptions.
To give you some context, he is a proud father of two children with his wife Keely, and they have been happily married for two decades.
Despite their trip being filled with romance and passion, Keely has unfortunately become the target of unjustifiable and unbearable hatred lately.
Fortunately, Pierce remained steadfast. In the face of a scrutinizing audience, he boldly defended his wife, demonstrating his unwavering love and unwavering support for her. Based on his actions, we can deduce the following:
Pierce adores every single curve of his wife’s physique, regardless of what others may think.
Pierce met American journalist Keely Shaye Smith in 1994 after becoming a widower. His first wife, Cassandra Harris, had passed away from ovarian cancer on December 28, 1991.
Pierce was naturally heartbroken by her departure and uncertain about where to begin the process of healing while taking care of three children all by himself.
Keely came into his life at the perfect moment, and thanks to her support, he found the strength to embrace the challenging yet rewarding responsibilities that come with being a parent.
Her friends suggested weight-loss surgery for her, but I love every curve on her body. She is the most beautiful woman to me. Plus, she’s the mother of our five children. – Pierce Brosnan.
In 2001, they got married in Pierce’s homeland and welcomed Dylan and Paris as their own sons.
They have spent a wonderful twenty years together, and their love keeps getting stronger.
A couple of days back, Pierce sent his wife a touching message for their 20th anniversary. He wrote, “Happy anniversary my dear Keely, my love for you keeps growing,” and included two photos of them taken 20 years apart, illustrating the beautiful journey of their relationship.
The couple always receives praise from the public, despite there being no reason for criticism.
Keely’s looks, especially her weight, seem to be the focus of the hostility. The general public is inexplicably surprised and repulsed.
Pierce made a mistake by marrying someone who is not a size 0 and doesn’t look like a bombshell. Why did he choose to marry an average woman who is said to be out of his league when he has so much money and influence?
His love for her disproves outdated gender stereotypes about women and attractiveness.
Many forget that gaining weight is okay and beauty standards can be challenged. You don’t need to conform to society’s ideals of being small and fitting in all the time.
As you grow older, certain things become more important than others, and you may not need external validation to feel confident and believe in yourself anymore.
Pierce has stated that he values Keely for who she is, not for how she looks.
When you commit to someone, you agree to grow with them and modify your perspective in response to their changes.
We wouldn’t have spent millennia attempting to understand the complexity of love if it were a one-time event.
In an interview, Pierce mentioned how some of their family friends had advised surgery to help his wife lose weight, but the former James Bond is unshakeable in his respect for his wife and every facet of her looks.
He adores her curves and flaws, and he could care less if some idly-minded people on the internet bemoan her appearance—a stranger’s body they have nothing to do with.
In fact, Pierce went above and beyond to express that he’s always fancied Keely for her demeanor and loving heart.
“In the past, I actually loved her for her person, not simply for her beauty, and now I’m loving her even more that she is my children’s mother, and I am extremely proud of her, and I always aim to be worthy of her love,” he stated on Hollywood Star.
In a way, Pierce shouldn’t even respond to the offensive statement, much less explain why he still wants her after 20 years.
On the other hand, seeing an older couple demonstrate their affection for one another is absolutely adorable.
Furthermore, it’s so typical for older Hollywood celebrities to get involved with attractive, young women who are about thirty years their junior that Pierce’s decision to keep with the same woman and continue their relationship comes out as bizarrely defiant.
It once again highlights the unrealistic demands placed on women’s bodies and appearance; in order to “deserve” love, women must never “let themselves go” and must always be more attractive than men. If they deviate from the norm in any way, they’re essentially giving the men permission to discard them and chase other women at will.
Pierce elevates his wife not because of her perceived beauty but rather because of the part she has played in his life.
She saved him from the depths of hopelessness and gave him the chance to grow and find his place in a world so rife with suffering and resentment. The couple’s continued strength is not surprising.
Love has no chance against criticism.
Keely and Pierce are committed to one another and don’t care what people think of them.
As you age, you come to understand that attraction and desire are created by an intellectual and emotional connection rather than by foolish ideals.
You spend time with someone not just because they physically excite you but also because they are fundamentally a part of you and you wouldn’t want to be with anyone else.
It just implies you value them for reasons other than their physical appearance and conventional ideas of beauty; it doesn’t mean there isn’t any more infatuation left in the tank.
Pierce’s devotion to Keely is proof that you shouldn’t be concerned about what other people think.
You’ll be able to achieve enduring fulfillment as long as you keep holding your partner in high regard and are prepared to put up with even the smallest “imperfections.”
These viewpoints don’t need to alter anything; they merely serve to serve as a reminder that your love is more important than these pointless discussions that shift with the tides.
