LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Sandra Bullock and Bryan Randall's love story took a poignant turn in December 2017 when they exchanged heartfelt vows on a serene beach in the Bahamas. Their union, without legal binding or an officiant, stemmed from her reluctance to marry, yet it beautifully affirmed their profound connection, witnessed by dear friends and family.
In a video of the ceremony obtained by the The Daily Mail, Bullock was seen in a blue and white patterned kaftan with braided hair and flip-flops, holding Randall tightly. The photographer was seen dressed in a white linen shirt paired with dark jeans and matching flip-flops. He was seen gazing lovingly at Bullock as they swayed to their own rhythm.
Did Sandra Bullock marry Bryan Randall?
The 'Bullet Train' star, who had previously expressed no interest in remarriage after her divorce from Jesse James in 2010, called Randall "the love of my life."
Soon after, Bullock's children, 13-year-old Louis and 11-year-old Laila started affectionately addressing Randall as "dad." Bullock adopted Louis in 2010 and Laila in 2015.
The couple's 14-day trip to Arpad Busson's Three Bees Villa on Harbor Island culminated in the low-key yet significant ceremony. The oceanfront retreat, owned by the French financier, has held a special place in Sandra's heart, and it served as the backdrop for their heartfelt declaration. One guest who was also in attendance said, "It was Bryan's birthday on December 31 so it's like they wanted to celebrate everything all at once."
'Love of her life!'
Bullock and Randall reportedly met in 2015 when he was hired as a photographer for her son's birthday party. The couple maintained a private relationship, and Bullock affirmed her deep affection for Randall during an appearance on 'Red Table Talk' in November 2021, referring to him as the "love of her life."
According to a statement from the family, Randall was diagnosed with ALS three years ago, but it did not specify the exact year. His family announced his death in August and released a statement, which read, "Bryan chose early to keep his journey with ALS private and those of us who cared for him did our best to honor his request."
"We are immensely grateful to the tireless doctors who navigated the landscape of this illness with us and to the astounding nurses who became our roommates, often sacrificing their own families to be with ours," their statement further read.
