What Happened’: Pierce Brosnan Rocks ‘Grandfather’ Look with Completely Gray Hair & Beard, Igniting Buzz — Pics
Pierce Brosnan has been dubbed a grandpa after posting a photo with gray hair and a beard online. His appearance sparked a flurry of reactions from people who couldn’t help but focus on his physical features. Interestingly, while many are surprised by his gray hair and beard, Pierce has been rocking the silver-haired look for quite some time.
Silver screen heartthrob Pierce Brosnan, 71, showed his followers how he spent Sunday with new pictures shared on Instagram on July 7. The “GoldenEye” star posted a carousel of two images of him checking out the widely-debated King Charles III portrait with the artist, Johnathan Yeo. However, it was not the King’s compelling portrait that caught the eyes of observers.
Pierce, who appeared with a fully gray head of hair and a neatly styled beard, opted for a simple ensemble. He donned a white shirt and black pants, which he fastened with a belt. Elevating his casual look, Pierce accessorized with chic glasses.

The cover image shows the A-lister standing side-by-side with Johnathan as Pierce smiles at the camera, placing his left arm on Johnathan’s shoulder. Johnathan, on the other hand, who sported a taupe and beige ensemble and black-rimmed glasses, placed one hand in his pocket and left the other on Pierce’s back.
Giving a closer and more intimate view of himself and King Charles III’s painting, Pierce’s second picture displays his side profile as he gazes at something outside the camera’s frame with the King’s portrait right beside him.
“A day to remember in the studio of portrait artist Johnathan Yeo and his beautifully compassionate, distinguished and compelling portrait of His Majesty, King Charles III. Thank you Johnny. A masterpiece in every way, which has only just begun its journey in the history art and time,” Pierce penned in his caption.
While the King of England’s portrait is certainly a sight to behold, many were more interested in discussing Pierce’s appearance, paying particular attention to his hair and beard. “Oh Pierce…a beard sorry. Love to see your face ,” commented an Instagrammer.

Another asserted, “Pierce is now Santa .” Someone else who was taken aback by Pierce’s looks wrote, “Why do you look not beautiful what happened.” Others felt the actor looked great and complimented him.
“Beautiful art [and] you’re looking good @piercebrosnanofficial,” swooned a fan. An admirer praised, “My favorite Bond,” while another noted, “[James Bond] is now a grandfather.”
As the aforementioned comment mentions, Pierce is in fact a grandpa, not because of the color of his hair but because some of his kids have children of their own. In 2022, Pierce shared an endearing post on Instagram revealing that another one of his grandchildren had been born.

He posted two heartwarming images of his then-new grandson, Jaxxon Elijah Brosnan—the child of Pierce’s son, Sean Brosnan.
Gushing over Jaxxon’s birth in his caption, Pierce expressed, “Jaxxon Elijah Brosnan, born 3:06pm 11/12/22… all good blessings to you my dearest grandson, welcome. Congratulations my darling Sean, Sanja and Marley. Peace be with you.”
Drawing back to the other comments Pierce received on his recent pics, while some may be surprised to see the doting granddad rock silver hair, this is not the first time he has done so. Years ago, in 2015, Pierce was spotted out in Malibu with gray hair.
The actor who played the alluring spy James Bond from 1995 to 2002 was seen with his mom, Mary Smith, as they took an afternoon stroll. While Pierce, who donned a blue dress shirt and black jeans, sported a different hair length, his locks were still gray.

Seven years after his Malibu outing with his mom, Pierce Brosnan was seen with his gray hair again. The silver fox was photographed in January 2022 with his short gray locks as he carried several bouquets of yellow, white, and orange roses he had purchased during a grocery run.
