Pierce Brosnan and his wife Keely Shaye Smith enjoyed lunch together at celebrity hotspot E. Baldi in Beverly Hills on Tuesday. 

The actor, 73, appeared in high spirits as he left the eatery with a bag of goodies and a drink in hand. 

Keely, 62, looked lovely in a yellow cardigan, white floaty dress and Chanel sandals for the outing. 

They paid a visit to the upscale Italian restaurant which has seen a flurry of Hollywood stars walk through its doors in recent years. 

It was a rare appearance for Pierce and Keely, who have been married for 25 years. They first started dating in 1994. 

Keely told People she immediately found the Bond actor 'captivating' when they met and that he had a 'mischievous sparkle in his eyes'.

In the same interview, the actor said of his wife: 'I found a great woman in Keely Shaye. Not if I searched a million times over would I find one as good.'

The couple have two sons, Dylan, 29, and Paris, 25. 

Last year, Pierce said that Keely still makes his 'world turn', telling Fox News: 'She still makes my heart sing and she still makes my world turn.

'She allows me to go out into the world and create what I do as an actor, and that takes strength and stamina. We just enjoy each other's company.'

In January, fans rushed to defend Keely after a vile troll shared comparison snaps of her to act as a 'reminder to avoid marriage'. 

The couple are often deemed one of Hollywood's great love stories, with their lengthy love defying the lore of short-lived romances, however on Sunday a vile X user claimed the couple showed marriage should be 'avoided'. 

The comment was made alongside images of the couple on the red carpet at the Governers Ball for the Academy Awards in 1996 alongside a snap of the duo posing at the Mamma Mia! premiere in 2008.

Swarming with defensive messages, many insisted they were an advert for true love, with one user stating: 'I don't get some men on X devotion to degrade Brosnan's wife. They're both happy, aging gracefully, and she was & is absolutely gorgeous.'

One fan stated that Pierce had 'won the lottery of life': 'Pierce Brosnan’s won the lottery of life. Dude’s been married 30 years and they’ve both aged gracefully.' 

Further messages from fans read: 'Agreed. If you're this shallow and stupid, you should avoid marriage at all costs. Sincerely, women everywhere... 

'She is such a beautiful woman. How lucky they are to share that bond over so many years. Beautiful... Marriage is beautiful when you're with the right person... he seems happy. they are lucky... This is unacceptable... 

'Why? They are happy and value one another ? I don’t see what you’re getting at here ?... You couldn't pick the worst example. First, she's beautiful in both pictures and second they are glowing with organic happiness... 

'Why, his wife is beautiful, intelligent, a loving partner and quality mom... What’s wrong with the picture?... Dear men and women. This is what lifelong love looks like…. Enjoy it. It’s hard to find. But you know when you do...'

Pierce was previously married to wife Cassandra Harris for 11 years but she died from cancer in 1991.

He adopted her two children, Charlotte and Christopher, from her previous marriage and they had one biological son together, Sean.

Last week teaser images were released of Pierce in MobLand after Tom Hardy's 'unexpected' exit from the Paramount+ show.

Frequent rowing with directors over a delay in filming the third series of the drama had led to the actor, who plays fixer Harry Da Souza, walking away after its second run.

Despite fears that a second run could be delayed following claims that bosses were planning a hasty re-write in the wake of Tom's exit, a new trailer released on Thursday confirmed the show will return on September 18.

New teaser images also showed Pierce, who plays the ruthless patriarch Conrad Harrigan, is being patched up by his wife Maeve following a nasty scuffle.

Once again the couple find themselves at the centre of rivalries that threaten to topple their empire.

The ten-episode second season will see the Harrigans struggle to show a unified front as rising rivals threaten their fractured criminal empire.

Harry Da Souza, their street-smart and formidable 'fixer' who is played by Tom, must walk a dangerous tightrope when tensions within the family intensify. 

As violence spills into every corner of their lives, loyalties snap, safety proves temporary, and the battle for power leaves no room for mercy. 

The second series will be released on Friday September 18,.
