Pierce tragically lost both Charlotte and his first wife to ovarian cancer. Cassandra Harris died in 1991 aged 43 after a battle with ovarian cancer. The couple had been married for 11 years. His daughter Charlotte - Cassandra's daughter from a previous relationship, who he later legally adopted - tragically died from the same disease in 2013.

Pierce himself had a challenging childhood. His father left the family shortly after he was born, and his mother went away to work in London, leaving him to live with relatives and later in a boarding house, where he slept in a "metal bed with a curtain around it".

Pierce met his father for the first time in 1984, while filming Remington Steele in his native Ireland, but said he would have liked to get to know him better. "My fatherly instincts are purely my own," he said. "They relate back to no one, because there was no one.
"I only met Tom the once. I had a Sunday afternoon with him. A story about this and that, had a few pints of Guinness and we said goodbye. I would have loved to have known him. He was a good whistler and he had a good walk… That's as much as I know about him."
