Pierce Brosnan says his wife Keely helped him through `agony` of leaving James Bond

20-Jan-2005 • Bond News

Pierce Brosnan turned to his wife to help him through the disappointment of being dropped as movie superspy James Bond 007 - reports ContactMusic.

Brosnan insists the shock departure from his role and disappointment would have got on top of him if not for the support of his wife Keely.

He says, "No one contacted me to tell me anything. No reason. Nothing. What do you do in circumstances like that?

"I was disappointed because I'd put so much of myself into the role. And it would've been nice to get an explanation as to why and how it was coming to an end.

"I don't mind admitting I was hurt and a bit mystified, but Keely said, 'You have nothing to prove to anyone. Just move on.'



"I'm one of those guys who believes that you need a good, strong woman in your life. I take advice, so I've got no regrets."

Thanks to `Ken` for the alert.
