Sir Sean Connery's granddaughter has delighted fans with a gorgeous set of photos with the late actor's widow as the two women enjoy some quality family time together in the Bahamas.
The late James Bond legend, left behind his wife Lady Micheline Connery, 94, when he sadly passed away in 2020 at the age of 90.
Sean and Micheline upped sticks and moved to the Bahamas a number of years ago, and three years after the actor's death, his granddaughter Saskia, 27, has now shared rare snaps of her glamorous grandmother.
Micheline oozed glamour and elegance in the sweet snaps as she stunned in a forest green bodycon midi dress. Sean's beloved wife paired the figure-hugging dress with a pair of silver heels and topped off the elegant look with a statement necklace.

Celebrating her grandmother turning 94, Saskia shared more sweet snaps of her and her beloved nan gazing into one another's eyes, and another shows them sharing a sweet hug together. "This is 94," Saskia captioned the family post.
Micheline, who is a Moroccan-French painter and Sean's second wife, was left devastated when the Hollywood actor passed away in 2020. At the time, after his death, Micheline said her life would never be the same: "He was my life for so long and I am grateful for the wonderful life we had together. But it is not the same for me now."
Sean and Micheline had an intense and passionate love that began when they met in 1970 at a golf tournament in Morocco, after Sean split from his first wife Diane Cilento.
Recalling their first encounter, Micheline – who had two husbands prior to Sean – told The Sun in 2011 that she did not know he was an A-list actor. Micheline told how she noticed Sean's "fine physique" but "didn’t know who he was or anything about him."

I was in his arms. And I thought 'At last, peace'. The next day I went back to the tournament and that was that."
At the start of their relationship the couple could not speak the same language. Micheline, who speaks fluent French and Spanish and understands Arabic, said that it was not an issue for the love birds as she cheekily shared with the publication: "Oh we had no problem communicating - body language".
Revealing that their love was solid, the actor previously said of his wife: "Micheline is an amazing woman. She is the love of my life."
