Pierce, 71, known to millions around the world as one of the most iconic James Bonds in film history, looked effortlessly suave in a tailored cobalt blue suit. He paired the striking ensemble with a crisp white shirt and a sleek silver tie, his silver-white hair slicked back in classic Hollywood style.

The 61-year-old journalist and philanthropist stunned in a black lace mini dress that showed off her incredible figure.
The thigh-grazing frock, featuring elegant three-quarter-length sleeves, highlighted Keely’s toned legs and her recent transformation.

The red carpet appearance was another reminder of the couple’s enduring love story — a relationship built on admiration, mutual respect and, above all, deep friendship.
The pair tied the knot on August 4, 2001, in a stunning ceremony in Ballintubber Abbey in Ireland. More than two decades later, they remain as devoted as ever.

“Watching someone grow up with you and grow old with you is a very spiritual journey. To watch each other change... whatever it may be, the hair, the waist. But it’s the love in the heart.”
That love was clear to see as they posed for photos, laughing and exchanging warm glances, each seemingly more proud of the other than themselves.
The couple share two sons together — Dylan, 28, and Paris, 24 — both of whom have inherited their parents' striking good looks and creative spirits.

Over the years, fans have continued to be charmed not only by Pierce’s enduring talent but also by his unabashed adoration for his wife. In a 2006 interview with Vogue, Keely confidently declared, “I never shy away from... my curves. I never hide in baggy clothing.” Her husband was quick to offer his support, adding, “I love my wife’s curves. She’s stunning.”
