Sandra has stayed out of the public eye since August 2023, when her longtime partner died of ALS, but she is slowly making her way back to the entertainment business and the dating scene.
In recent sightings, Sandra Bullock was last seen running errands on July 12, just a few weeks before a big birthday.
She was wearing nothing but white clothes and smiled at the photographers as she left a dermatologist’s office in Beverly Hills.
A source told Us Weekly that Sandra is slowly coming back into the public eye.
“She’s excited about what’s to come.” “She’s ready to play again.”
The star, who turned 60 on July 26, is said to have spent some time thinking about what she has done.
Sandra has been in over 50 movies, including the action thriller Speed (1994), which was her big break, as well as Miss Congeniality, The Blind Side, and The Proposal.
In 2005, she got a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In 2014, Forbes ranked her as the second most powerful actress, and Time 100 named her one of the most important people in the world.
So, Sandra’s fans were shocked when they learned she was leaving the spotlight two years ago.
The star said in March 2022 that she would be taking a break from the entertainment business after her new romantic comedy, The Lost City, came out.
“I can be creative, I can be part of a community, but right now, work in front of the camera needs to take a pause,” she told CBS.
When asked how long she would be away from Hollywood, Sandra said, “I don’t know.”
“I don’t know…until I don’t feel like I feel now when I’m in front of a camera,” she said.
Since then, Sandra’s only acting job has been a short but memorable cameo in the action comedy Bullet Train in 2022, along with Brad Pitt, who played her co-star in Lost City.
She spent more time at home with her son Louis and daughter Layla and also put all of her attention on her photographer partner of eight years, Bryan Randall, who was diagnosed with ALS in 2020.
Sandra, who called Bryan the “love of my life” on an episode of Red Table Talk in 2021, was there for her late boyfriend as he dealt with his illness in private.
ALS is a fatal disease of motor neurons that destroys nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord over time. There is no known cure for it.
Bryan passed away on August 6, 2023, after getting sick for three years.
