Sandra Bullock Seeing Partner Struggle with ALS Was ‘Difficult’ — Inside Her ‘Very Hard’ Days before His Death

• A friend of Hollywood actress Sandra Bullock has revealed that it was "difficult" for the star to see her late partner, Bryan Randall, struggling with ALS.
• The same source also said, "It was very hard" for Bullock to say goodbye.

It has now been more than two weeks since Hollywood icon Sandra Bullock's longtime partner, Bryan Randall, passed away. Randall battled ALS before succumbing to the disease, which took his life at 57.

His doting and devoted partner, Bullock, stayed by his side until the end. Her love, loyalty, and support for him were unwavering as he reached his final days.

Recently, a few weeks after Randall's passing, a friend of the "Bird Box" star divulged some details about Bullock's emotional state since losing her love. The friend revealed:

"The last few years of seeing Bryan struggle were very difficult...It was very hard to say goodbye."

Prior to the recent statement made by her friend, a news outlet disclosed how Bullock planned to say her final goodbye to Randall. According to the media outlet, the actress wanted to scatter his ashes in the ocean of an island villa in the Bahamas.

The location bears special significance to Bullock and her late partner. The luxury resort, Three Bees, is the same place where the couple had exchanged vows in 2017, although the duo never married.

According to a friend of theirs, the getaway destination was where the pair spent some of their happiest moments with their loved ones, which included their kids. As expressed by the same source:

"...They would take over the entire island so they could just be themselves..."

Bullock's profound love and care for Randall, whom she called the love of her life, was even felt by everyone who knew and supported the couple. One of these people is Bullock's sister, who, when Randall died, shared:

"...ALS is a cruel disease but there is some comfort in knowing he had the best of caretakers in my amazing sister and the band of nurses she assembled who helped her look after him in their home."

Sandra Bullock Stepped Away from Her Career for Her Family, Which Includes Her StepDaughter

Last year, Bullock decided to pause her career in Tinseltown in order to devote more of her time to her family life. The "While You Were Sleeping" talent spoke about her need to be in the place where she is the happiest, with her kids at home.

Concerning her kids, Bullock also became a stepmom to Randall's daughter, Skylar Staten, whom he welcomed in his previous relationship. Staten was born in Los Angeles in 1993, and according to a news outlet, she is an aspiring model.

After her mom's unfortunate passing in 2004, Staten went to live with her grandmother. However, following her grandmother's demise, she moved to Los Angeles and lived with her late dad, where she attended high school just before leaving for Arizona to attend college.

Although Bullock is still going through a tough time while grieving her loss, the star is surrounded and supported by her family and her close friends.
