Pierce Brosnan’s daughter Charlotte Smith has died after a three-year battle with ovarian cancer.

“On June 28 at 2 pm, my darling daughter Charlotte Emily passed on to eternal life, having succumbed to ovarian cancer,” Pierce confirmed to People.

“She was surrounded by her husband Alex, children Isabella and Lucas and brothers Christopher and Sean.”

The 60-year-old actor said his daughter, 41, passed away in London after a “gracious” battle with the disease.

“Charlotte fought her cancer with grace and humanity, courage and dignity. Our hearts are heavy with the loss of our beautiful dear girl,” he said.

“We pray for her and that the cure for this wretched disease will be close at hand soon.

“We thank everyone for their heartfelt condolences.”

Charlotte, who leaves behind husband Alex Smith, their daughter, 14, and son, 8, died from the same disease that claimed her mother’s life in 1991.
