Bullock met Randall when he photographed her son's birthday party in 2015. They started dating shortly after.

Sandra Bullock's longtime partner, Bryan Randall, has died after a private battle with ALS, his family revealed on Monday. According to a statement obtained by Yahoo Entertainment, the photographer — who started dating the Oscar-winning actress in 2015 — "passed away peacefully" over the weekend. He was 57.

"It is with great sadness that we share that on Aug. 5, Bryan Randall passed away peacefully after a three-year battle with ALS," his family shared. "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," his family added. The Randall family concluded, "At this time we ask for privacy to grieve and to come to terms with the impossibility of saying goodbye to Bryan."

What I like about Bullock is years ago she wanted a sense of normalcy and, rather than live in Hollywood, she chose to move to Texas. She kept a little of the Hollywood mindset by moving to loony liberal Austin

My stepmother chronicled the path to death of a good friend of hers via ALS, as it progressed. It was just so sad and painful to hear. Gives you the willies for certain.

Trivia, my late brother owned a condo on Tybee island beach just down the beach from her place. Hers was a “slightly” larger domicile of course. I was visiting him in late 2003 and he told me this as we were walking down the beach one evening. He got a kick out of it. As a side note, I have never understood why gay men (he was) seem to be so enamored with female celebrities.

Good grief. You’re a one trick pony. Very boring. You provide nothing at all to any thread but your obsession with vaccines. I pray you don’t get shingles for being a complete idiot in your beliefs.

Over the last couple of years I have found my attitude to become like that. I find it difficult to be a “good person” and care much about them after the way we’ve been treated. And are being treated.

Covid has really enabled the left to clearly reveal their homicidal hate towards us. And I do mean homicidal.

I know nothing of hers or his views so I feel sorry for both of them.

It’s Hollywood. They sink to a lower standard than normal people.

You gotta see demolition man - it’s an ironic foretelling of what actually happened to the world.

I don’t comment on peoples’ crude remarks, but that was totally uncalled for.

America is now two enemy countries living side by side. All they want to do is hurt us and trample our rights and take away our way of life. The sooner people realize this the better.

My wife and I are going through the dementia problem with her mother. She was a VERY self-reliant person before dementia and it breaks my wife’s heart that she has been reduced to this.

I found that the trait of being celeb conscious to be big with lefties in general.

It is so hard to watch them lose their abilities one by one. My father in law was an engineer. Brilliant man.

I remember “Demolition Man.” I always thought she got her start in “Speed,” but now I see “Demolition Man” came out the year before.

I just subjected myself to your profile write up. Wow. What a snooze fest! It sounds like the ramblings of a complete simpleton. Are you a woman or a man? You sound female.

I’ll always appreciate her for Demolition Man.

That movie is a stupid, insipid, waste of time and money, crappy acting, lousy plot, cheesy effects and one of the best movies I've ever had the fun of watching.

And Dennis Leary's rant was great.

Edgar Friendly: You got that right. See, according to Cocteau's plan, I'm the enemy. Cause I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech and freedom of choice. I'm the kind if guy who wants to sit in a greasy spoon and think, "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecued ribs with the side order of gravy fries?" I want high cholesterol. I want to eat bacon, butter and buckets of cheese, okay? I want to smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in a non-smoking section. I wanna run through the streets naked with green Jello all over my body reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly might feel the need to. Okay, pal? I've seen the future, you know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sittin' around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake singing "I'm an Oscar-Meyer Wiener". You wanna live on top, you gotta live Cocteau's way. What he wants, when he wants, how he wants. Your other choice: come down here, maybe starve to death.
