Pierce Brosnan ushered in his 73rd birthday on May 16 with a dreamy vacation miles away from his Malibu home. The actor's wife, Keely Shaye, took to Instagram to pay tribute to her husband on his milestone day. Keely revealed that the pair celebrated Pierce's birthday in New Zealand and Fiji.

"Happy Birthday my love! May all your dreams come true @piercebrosnanofficial to @thelandingnz and @kaibuisland for all your warm and gracious hospitality," Keely penned in the caption.

The post featured a photograph of Pierce standing beneath a rainbow in a vast green landscape overlooking the mountains. He tipped his hat into the air and was dressed in a black polo shirt paired with matching trousers as he smiled at the camera. The following photo showed Pierce posing in front of crystal-clear ocean waters on a tropical island. He wore a pale blue button-down shirt and shielded his eyes behind a pair of black sunglasses.

The couple, who tied the knot in 200, share two sons – Dylan and Paris. Pierce and Keely met back in April 1994 at a party in Mexico.

Family life

The family split their time between their tropical retreat in Hawaii and their luxurious $100 million beach house in Malibu. The couple purchased the Malibu land back in 2000 and built an almost 13,000-square-foot compound on the property. Pierce and Keely spent 10 years renovating it into their dream haven that they have dubbed 'Orchid House'. The five-bedroom, 14-bathroom home boasts 117 feet of oceanfront and features a sprawling open deck. 

Pierce previously shared that he is grateful for the consistent support that his wife has shown him over the years when it comes to his career. "She's given me wings to fly and lets me, you know, gallivant around the world here making movies. But we're here and Hawaii is her home and our home," he told Fox. "You know, it's just solving one problem after the [other], whether it's the washing machine or how far the finances are going to go, or what your dreams are. But ultimately, we just enjoy each other's company enormously."

"Keely and I love each other and are blessed to have each other as companions in this life and we've created a good life for ourselves, of hard work and perseverance of life."

While Pierce and Keely enjoy their romantic tropical vacation together, their son, Paris, is currently in Cannes for the 79th annual Film Festival. The 25-year-old was joined by his model girlfriend Alex Lee-Aillon on the red carpet.
