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."

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.

That sounds like my review of the movie "BASEketball", probably why I've watched it about ten times now.

Handsome man. We never know what illness or difficulties someone is fighting behind closed doors.

ALS is just a nasty, evil disease. Your body becomes your prison.

Back in 1977 my very first Missile Combat Crew Commander was a LtCol. He was the last LtCol to be a normal, everyday, Line Crew Commander.

He put in his retirement papers only a couple of months after I was placed on his crew and was diagnosed with ALS during his out-processing. He passed away about a year later.

He was one of the best men and officer I ever knew. Why does ALS seem to always take the good ones?

Never seen Demolition Man.

It is a fun movie and viewing it as such you will probably like it.

Lol. You aren’t even creative enough to bring up your own descriptions. You are lazy, jealous and a stupid anti vax type. Congratulations on bringing back diseases that were eradicated for decades. Your selfishness knows no bounds.

Good question. I’ve always had a thing for her. Not a classic beauty but the whole package is greater than the sum of the parts.

I liked her in The Blind Side, that one scene where she told off those rich b*****s. It was classic, even if the movie was true fiction.

I agree, when she first started out she was verrrrry cute, quite pretty actually. Then she got her nose job and that cuteness went south.

I never understood women with natural beauty wanting to improve it by ruining it.

Fat lip jobs are the worst, thank God she never went for that one. They make women look like monkeys with their lips inverted.

Agree with your list. All good. She did a great job on “The Blind Side”.

“She may be the last breathing human to know how to use sea shells.”

I was reading a book with survival tips in it and “smooth sea shells” were listed as an alternative to tp. I laughed for a good long time.

sad, but it seems odd that 6-7 years is considered a long time partner.

“She always seems like a pretty normal person.”

Someone I know was Bullock’s Huntington Harbor (CA) neighbor years ago. She was known as Sandy, not Sandra or Ms. Bullock, to her neighbors. And she adopted two dogs from a local shelter without publicity.

“The Heat” was a fun movie. She always had a natural comedic timing.

But, lately, she hasn’t been funny at all. In her interviews, she’s been melodramatic and teary-eyed about everything.

Now we know her boyfriend was suffering. At 57, he was still young.
