In 1991, former James Bond star, Pierce Brosnan lost his wife, Australian actress Cassandra Harris to ovarian cancer. Just last week, Brosnan also lost his daughter to the same disease that killed her mother.
“On June 28 at 2pm my darling daughter Charlotte Emily passed on to eternal life, having succumbed to ovarian cancer. She was surrounded by her husband Alex, her children Isabella and Lucas and her brothers Christopher and Sean,” the actor said in a statement.
“Charlotte fought her cancer with grace and humanity, courage and dignity. Our hearts are heavy with the loss of our beautiful dear girl. We pray for her and that the cure for this wretched disease will be close at hand soon. We thank everyone for their heartfelt condolences.”
