JAMES Bond star Pierce Brosnan has celebrated a major milestone with his wife Keely.
The Irish star met his love Keely in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico and went on to tie the knot at Ashford Castle in Ireland.
The couple met in a bar in 1994 – three years after the death of Pierce’s first wife Cassandra Harris from cancer.
The pair marked their 23rd wedding anniversary yesterday.
Pierce took to Instagram to pay tribute to his wife on the very special occasion.
The first throwback snap he shared was of himself and Keely posing for a smiling snap on the beach.
He also posted another glamorous throwback of the pair huddled in close for a picture.
And in two more recent snaps, the pair were looking happier than ever.
Pierce wrote out a heartfelt message in the caption that said: “Happy 23rd anniversary my darling Keely my beautiful brown eyed girl, my north, my south, my east and west.
“All my love, should I fall behind wait for me.”
The happy couple’s fans raced to the comments to gush over the heart-melting post.
Lisa said: “How beautiful, such an adorable couple – happy anniversary.”
Another wrote: “Most beautiful couple – Happy Anniversary! The two of you are a wonderful example of true love and commitment!”
A third fan gushed: “Beautiful words Pierce, to many more years with your brown eyed girl!”
Rita commented: “Happy Anniversary! You are both wonderful people!”
Denise added: “Happy Anniversary Pierce & Keely – most gorgeous couple full of true love.”
Pierce’s wife Keely recently reminisced on the time she was in the “midst of controversy”.
Keely took to Instagram to share a major throwback photo of the cover she did for Redbook Magazine back in 1997.
‘ICON’
The cover caused a stir as she was breastfeeding her son Dylan, who was an infant at the time, while Pierce looked adoringly at them.
Keely shared the photo in celebration National Breastfeeding Week and explained the meaning behind the photo.
She wrote: “Still kind of amazed that this image, taken by @greggormanphoto at the end of a long day and photo shoot, wound up on the cover of REDBOOK Magazine.
“Baby Dylan became fussy and I decided to stop the shoot and feed him.
“Greg, a dear friend, suggested he take the last three shots of (real) film on the roll so I would have this beautiful memory.
“He turned the film in and a couple months later I awoke in the midst of a controversy across the morning airwaves as some folks were genuinely offended by this photograph.
“Thankfully, we’ve come a long way since 1997. Although this image was not planned, I hope it inspires women to try the ‘womanly art of breastfeeding’.”
The 60-year-old’s fans all loved the snap and raced to the comment section with compliments.
