(Picture: PA Archive)A Los Angeles court has granted Pierce Brosnan an emergency restraining order against a woman who he alleges is “stalking” him and his family at their Southern California residence.
In legal documents obtained by The Blast, the 69-year-old claimed that the woman, 55, has been staying outside of his Malibu home in a car.
The former 007 actor told the court that he contacted the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department to remove the woman from his property on two separate occasions.
However, authorities were unable to take her into custody for being outside his property and Brosnan was advised to seek a civil restraining order, which would make her actions chargeable if approved.
The Mamma Mia star also named his wife Keely Shaye Smith, 59, and their sons Dylan, 25, and Paris, 21, in his bid for an emergency temporary restraining order against the woman.
Detailing the woman’ behaviour in court, the Irish-born actor alleged: “She originally said she was looking for Dick Van Dyke (she has a tattoo of him on her arm) but when she found me and my family, she stayed in front of our house.
“She gave me two odd notes, said she needed $1,500 for new tires, and gave me a drawing she did of me.”
Following his hearing, the court granted Brosnan an emergency restraining order and informed the woman that she is not to contact the actor or his family “directly or indirectly” or “harass” them.
She must stay at least 400 yards away from their Malibu residence as well as any school or workplaces his children might be at.
A further hearing has been set for Tuesday, October 25, where it will be determined whether the woman will be given an extended order that could last up to five years.
Evening Standard has contacted Pierce Brosnan’s representative for comment.
