Blindsided by love HOW SANDRA HEALED HER KIDS

The actress has an unbreakable bond with her kids, but it took work to get there

As Hollywood sweetheart Sandra Bullock hit the publicity circuit recently to promote her new Netflix film The Unforgiven, fans couldn’t help but note how different her life is today to the despair she experienced 11 years ago.

Back then, her world was in tatters after discovering her TV star husband Jesse James had cheated on her with a string of women.

“Now, as far as she’s concerned, it’s Jesse who?” says a source close to the actress. “Sandra is most definitely living her very best life.”

The secret to Sandra’s success has been her determination to forge ahead with the things that mattered to her the most – adopting two beautiful children and leaving her heart open enough to fall in love once again.

For the past six years, the Miss Congeniality star has been in a serious relationship with Los Angeles photographer Bryan Randall and last week Sandra couldn’t help but share her joy with the world, confessing, “I found the love of my life.”

Sandra, 57, is also revelling in her happiness as a devoted mum to her two children, son Louis, 11, and daughter Laila, eight. She adopted Louis, who was born in Louisiana in 2010, when he was three months old, and five years later she adopted Laila, who was three at the time, from the same US state.
