Shortly after Pierce Brosnan's first wife, Cassandra Harris, passed away, the Remington Steele star told People he credited Harris with his personal and professional successes. "She has made me the man I am, the actor I am, the father I am," Brosnan said. "She's forever embedded in every fiber of my being. She's there with me every day. I was so blessed to have met someone like that." After her death, Brosnan became a single father to Charlotte, Christopher, and Sean, the couple's only child together. Yet, while Brosnan ultimately found love again, sorrow followed when Charlotte succumbed to the same fate as her mother.

In June 2013, about two decades after Harris' death, Charlotte passed away at age 41. "Charlotte fought her cancer with grace and humanity, courage and dignity. Our hearts are heavy with the loss of our beautiful dear girl. We pray for her and that the cure for this wretched disease will be close at hand soon," he told People. "We thank everyone for their heartfelt condolences."

Brosnan's longtime friend told People that Charlotte was "a bubbly, almost kind of goofy, gorgeous girl," and that, after her death, Brosnan's "most intense memory ... was of always being able to make Charlotte laugh. He wanted to be able to make her laugh again." Biology doesn't necessarily beget love, but, in the case of Brosnan and Charlotte, it's clear that their bond defied genetics.
