Brosnan brothers pay tribute to sister Charlotte


July 3, 2013

No words were needed when Pierce Brosnan's son Sean posted pictures of his sister Charlotte taken of the two before she died, on Facebook.The actor and producer, 29, didn't pen a message to his sister Charlotte, who sadly died aged 41 on 28 June following a three-year battle with ovarian cancer, the same cancer that claimed the life of their mother.Instead he let the pictures speak for themselves, showing the two siblings having fun as they pose before the camera.

Wearing a bandana and a smart trilby hat to cover up the hair loss she had suffered from the treatment she underwent, Charlotte smiled contently as her younger brother held her in his arms.Other touching photos show the pair kissing Charlotte's eight-year-old son Lucas on each cheek, one with Charlotte bearing her shaved head.Pierce married Charlotte and Chris's mother Cassandra, and adopted both of them upon the death of their biological father. He and Cassandra also went on to have a son together, Sean.Sadly, the actress - who played a Bond girl in For Your Eyes Only - died aged 43 after she had battled ovarian cancer for four years.Paris, one of two sons from Pierce's second marriage, also paid tribute to his older sister on the social media network in an open, heartfelt letter addressed to Charlotte.

"Dear Charlotte," wrote the 12-year-old. “You were an amazing sister and I now understand all great people pass. And you were one of them. "From you holding me as a baby to seeing you now. You were the most amazing woman, and a true fighter, I will miss you and think about you everyday. "You are a true inspiration to me, to always keep fighting for the ones you love. You will always be in my heart. This morning I could not ...stop looking at the picture of you holding me as a new born baby, as I cried and looked I knew you were still with us. "I wish I could of had got to have my last words with you but I guess not. You have two amazing kids, my lovely niece Bella, and the funny little lukie. I will see you some day. But for now you watch over the family. R.I.P Charlotte Brosnan. "Charlotte married her boyfriend Alex Smith, with whom she had two children, Isabella, 15, and Lucas, eight, two weeks before her death.A friend of the family who attended told the Sun, "It was the most moving day of my life. It wasn't a day to be sad. Alex and Pierce were smiling broadly."
