Charlotte was 41 and lived in London with her family. Her children are 14 and 8.

This is the same disease that took the life of Pierce Brosnan's first wife Cassandra Harris in 1991, and also her grandmother.

Pierce Brosnan adopted Charlotte and her brother Christopher, the children of Cassandra, after the death of their father Dermot Harris in 1986.
