Dressed in a kaftan, wearing thongs and with her hair in braids, Sandra Bullock looked deliriously happy as she was cradled in her "husband" Bryan Randall's loving embrace when they exchanged vows in the Bahamas in 2017.
The poignant images surfaced last week amid the shocking news that Bryan, 57, had tragically passed away after succumbing to the degenerative disease ALS on August 5.
Burned by her marriage to Jesse James, who cheated on her, Sandra didn't want to remarry but professed Bryan was "the love of my life" in the intimate ceremony witnessed by friends and family.
According to one friend, "They really did this for the children, to kind of seal the deal and show them this was a forever thing. After the ceremony, Louis, 13, and Laila, 11, started calling Bryan dad."
Three years later Bryan was diagnosed with ALS - also known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis disease or Lou Gehrig's and Sandra hid his suffering from the world as she worked with a team of doctors and nurses to care for her partner of eight years at her five-bedroom mansion in New Orleans.
