How Sandra Bullock overcame her worst years
The end of 2009 and the beginning of 2010 was a golden period for Sandra Bullock - the actress was the main favorite in the Oscar race
When she was happiest in her life, she experienced endless pain and shame that she did not know how to overcome.
The end of 2009 and the beginning of 2010 was a golden period for Sandra Bullock - the actress was the main favorite in the Oscar race, for her role in the film "The blind side", and then she won it. At that time, her husband and famous motorcyclist Jesse James were in the process of adopting a child, who was supposed to arrive at their home every day.
Excited, proud, and overjoyed, Sandra dedicated the Oscar to Jesse. It wasn't long before Sandra and Jesse found themselves in the headlines again, but not for good reasons. In the following weeks, several women talked to the media about the fact that the motorcyclist cheated on the actress with them, and Sandra interrupted the European promotional tour of her new film due to the attention that this topic attracted.
Jesse soon spoke up and publicly apologized to his wife. He said most of these allegations were not true. But he said he’ll not talk about it anymore. Jesse said that he hoped that Sandra would forgive him once for the pain and shame he caused her, and then he went to a rehabilitation institution for, as he said, "private reasons".
However, the following month, Sandra Bullock filed for divorce, and she did not have much time to grieve because she had a new family member. It turned out that their adopted son had been living with them since January - and before the Oscars - but Sandra did not want to talk about it publicly and attracted media attention with her private life. However, the adoption process was finalized without Jesse, so Sandra was suddenly a single mother and the only parent to the boy Louis.
But she didn’t complain. She said she was excited and where she needs to be. She pointed out that she is happy anyway. Today, more than a decade later, Sandra points out that it was her son who helped her get through this difficult period. She simply did not want to put all her grief into his life.
Five years later, Sandra also adopted a girl, Laila, and today she takes care of her two children on her own, and she admits that she is saddened when she thinks about how many women whose lives are so difficult that they can't relax and just be moms.
She reminded us that she is the mother of two children of African-American origin, which makes her position even more responsible.
