SANDRA Finding Love After Tragedy

Following the death of partner Bryan Randall seven months ago, Sandra Bullock is starting over

The video was beautiful — and heartbreaking. In serene footage captured along the snowcovered banks of the Snake River in Jackson Hole, Wyo., in late December, the murmur of trickling water provided a peaceful soundtrack as wisps of steam rose into the air, the sun beginning to thaw the icy surface. It’s where Sandra Bullock released the ashes of late partner Bryan Randall on the day he should have turned 58 — nearly five months after he died following a secret three-year battle with ALS. “Happy birthday, Bry,” the actress’ sister, Gesine Bullock-Prado, captioned the clip on Instagram. “Sandy brought you to the river, just as she promised.”

Now she’s working to fulfill a second vow. “Sandra’s not done healing — it’s only been seven months — but she’s ready to move on,” says a source, explaining that the Osca r w inner promised the man she called “the love of my life” that she wouldn’t let grief hold her back and “would be open to finding love and starting over again.” Indeed, Sandra did it before, giving romance another chance when she met Bryan, despite suffering through a brutal 2010 divorce from cheating husband Jesse James, 54. Adds the source: “She knows Bryan wanted her to pick up the pieces and try to find a good guy.”
