Louis Bardo Bullock, Sandra Bullock’s son, was born in 2010, and his arrival changed everything in her life. He has grown significantly since the Academy Award-winning actress adopted him as a small boy.
Sandra claimed that she was inspired to explore adoption after Hurricane Katrina, which took place five years before her 2010 divorce from her ex-husband Jesse James. The Blind Side actress said to Parents that she “did wonder [to herself], “Maybe not,”” but that she ultimately made the decision to adopt when “Katrina happened in New Orleans.” Sandra gushed to the newspaper in June 2018 and said, “Something told me, ‘My child is there.’” It was peculiar.
In 2015, Sandra adopted Laila Bullock to become her second child, following the birth of Louis. After that year, she began dating Los Angeles-based photographer Bryan Randall, with whom she has been raising the star’s adorable family ever since. In May 2021, an insider told Closer in an exclusive statement that “[they] have genuinely [become] one huge, loving family.”
While Sandra’s daughter is “unafraid” and “going to do” wonderful things in life, her son has a somewhat different outlook, she observed. Louis is referred to as the Golden Globe winner’s “78-year-old son” for a reason that she described to InStyle in May 2018.
She claimed that Lou is quite sensitive. I’m reminded of the Jewish Catskills comedian Shecky Greene when I see him. He is wise and considerate. I could see it when they handed him to me. He exuded a majesty of the spirit. I hoped that I wouldn’t mess that up.
