James Bond

Sir Thomas Sean Connery, the iconic Scottish actor and Hollywood legend who made a name for himself as the first James Bond, has died at the age of 90, according to multiple outlets.

Connery reportedly died overnight in his sleep while in the Bahamas.

Before he was “Bond, James Bond,” Connery was just another

 kid in a working-class neighborhood in Fountainbridge, Scotland. Born on Aug. 25, 1930, to 

Joe and Euphamia Connery, “Tommy” ― as he was nicknamed ― spent his first years

 sleeping in a drawer, as his parents were unable to afford a crib.

“My background was harsh,” Connery has acknowledged. “We were poor, but I

never knew how poor till years after.” sounds strange to say it now,” he recalled in

an interview with The Scottish Sun, “but we never realized we lacked anything!”
