Reunion
His professional success brought changes in his personal life too. As he was gaining popularity day by day for his show Remmington Steele, his popularity got him the chance of meeting his father who had abandoned him a long time ago. The father contacted his son and both met at a hotel in Ireland when he was shooting for the show there. The meeting was quite emotional for the father as he apologized and showed his remorse over meeting him on that specific occasion and wished if they could meet in a more private circumstance. They spent a Sunday with each other and also had few pints of Guinness before going different ways. The only thing Pierce recalled about his father that “He was a good whistler and he had a good walk…that’s about all I know about him.”
