Pierce Brosnan and Keely Shaye Smith are parents to the young and talented siblings who've grown up to be successful individuals.
There's one point in the lives of all fathers when they can't help but be extremely proud of their sons. Pierce Brosnan is no exception. He is proud of his sons Dylan, 23, and Paris, 19, with second wife Keely Shaye Smith, who are taking the fashion and entertainment world by storm and have achieved a name for themselves at such a young age.
the talented and handsome brothers were named 2019 Golden Globe Ambassadors by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association president Lorenzo Soria. "For the first time in Golden Globe history, we’ve proudly selected two brothers to represent the Hollywood Foreign Press Association this awards season," he said, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
"Dylan and Paris Brosnan have already achieved tremendous success in the fashion world and are following in their father’s footsteps in entertainment. We’re excited to see how they’ll use this platform to contribute their talents to elevate the important issue of childhood hunger," Soria added.
During the 77th annual Golden Globe Awards that was hosted by Ricky Gervais, the Brosnan brothers focused on their philanthropic works on issues related to education and childhood hunger. It included them working with FEED which is an impact-driven organization that delivers nutritious and hot meals to children in various schools. They also took part in the distribution of statuettes during the award ceremony.
Paris, in 2019, went to Sri Lanka to make a short film on the work being done by the UN World Food Programme (WFP) in the South Asian Island for child hunger. He is a student of Film and Television at Loyola Marymount University, according to People. Dylan walked in Saint Laurent fashion shows in 2015 and 2016. The model also joined his father on the red carpet for Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time… In Hollywood. Dylan happens to be a part of the band Raspberry Blonde as well.
The Hollywood Reporter quoted Dylan, "We’re proud to honor our dad’s legacy as we join the incredible roster of previous Golden Globe Ambassadors, many of whom have gone on to pursue their own dreams in the entertainment industry."
The tall and handsome man who is also a graduate from the USC School of Cinematic Arts added, "The biggest lesson our dad taught us is to ‘be kind,’ which was an essential factor in Paris and my decision to study filmmaking and our desire to tell important stories. Having this opportunity to turn the spotlight outward on kids experiencing hunger is a true privilege."
Dylan, the eldest son of Brosnan and his second wife Smith has worked on campaigns with Burberry, Erdem, and H&M. He is also a composer and a cinematographer. He is said to look exactly like Smith.
Paris, the younger of the two, has also walked in the Fashion for Relief at the British Museum during the London Fashion Week in 2019. He has grown up to garner the title of Ireland's first male supermodel. Even though he's the youngest in the family, he has already been featured on the cover of the MMSCENE magazine alongside Myles O'Neal and Asher Oyelowo, sons of former NBA star Shaquille O'Neil and actor David Oyelowo respectively. At just 17 he walked for Dolce & Gabbana and appeared on the cover of GQ Korea, according to The Irish Central.
Taking about the honor of being the Golden Globe Ambassador, he told The Hollywood Reporter, "As students, my brother and I understand the value of education and its importance in equipping the next generation with skills to succeed. I’ve never had to worry about where my next meal might come from — I’m lucky in that respect; but I know that millions of children worldwide don’t have that luxury. School meals provide critically important nutrition, and also incentivize parents to keep kids in school, giving them a fighting chance for a better life."
Talking about her sons, she said, “They’re the heartbeat of our family. It’s been a privilege to be their mother and to watch them grow into the artists that they are. They’re just emerging. It’s amazing to watch them flourish.”
The November Man actor has two other sons, Sean and Chris, and daughter Charlotte who passed away, from first wife Cassandra Harris. While Sean was the couple's first son, Pierce adopted Charlotte and Chris after the demise of their biological dad, who was Harris' ex-husband.
