“She still loves her and calls her mom”: Sandra Bullock’s Ex-Husband Jesse James Praises 58 Year Old Actress for Sacrificing Herself to Raise His Daughter From Ex-Wife Despite Cheating on Her Later
Sandra Bullock’s divorce from Jesse James will likely never be forgotten, despite Hollywood being full of dramatic tales about heartbreak, infidelity, and scandalous splits. Primarily because James continued to cause trouble and bring attention to himself.
Jesse James and Sandra Bullock initially gave off the impression of being the ideal couple. The famous couple appeared to be a match made in heaven, both on the red carpet and in photographs. However, everything changed for the worse when tabloid rumors about James’ multiple cheating scandals began to circulate. The Miss Congeniality actor left their California home soon after the rumors started to circulate, and they even began divorce preparations.
In actuality, their breakup was among the messiest and most embarrassing in the tales of Hollywood love stories.
This led people to ponder how the actress could have missed his apparent true colors in light of his cheating scandal.
But why did James stray from his relationship with one of Hollywood’s most adored actresses? In a 2017 sit-down interview with The Daily Beast, James gave a frank account of his scandal, the reasons he cheated on Bullock, his admiration for her to take care of his kids from his ex-wife, and much more.
Sandra Bullock And Jesse James’ Divorce: What Caused It?
The former reality star’s cheating scandals were reportedly a major factor in the separation of Jesse James and Sandra Bullock. Still, a number of other factors contributed to the breakdown of their marriage. James claimed during The Howard Stern Show that he never thought his ex-wife still loved him.
He said of his relationship with Bullock, “I always felt like any moment that rug was going to be yanked out.” He still didn’t believe her when she referred to the part of her Oscars acceptance speech in which she declared her love for James.
“Yeah, she could stand there in front of the world and say she loved me, but in my mind, I was thinking, ‘Yeah bulls***…’ You don’t love me.’”
He didn’t immediately cheat on Bullock, claimed the former reality star. He claimed that it took a few years. “It was like a very short bubble…It was hard. I married America’s sweetheart, and she’s one of the biggest stars in the world, but I’m still this f***ed-up kid from Long Beach.”
Bullock, on the other hand, is happy that she and James split up because it enabled her to reach her current position. She claimed to The Independent that the key to finding everything you’ve ever wanted is to stop looking.
He Was Grateful for Her To Raise His Daughter Like Her Own!
She and Jesse James didn’t get along well, but she was a wonderful stepmother to his children, especially Sunny James. Despite their ugly divorce, she always wished to stay in their lives.
James also stated that his ex-wife, Sandra Bullock had made a significant contribution to raising his children from his previous marriage to Janine Lindemulder.
He claimed that she never had animosity toward her stepchildren.
“But the way she [Sandra] was with Sunny James was amazing and his daughter still loves her and considers her mom. It just sucks that because of the divorce, things have played out the way it has, because I would have no problem having her maintain a relationship with Sunny. There’s a big hole there in Sunny’s life without Sandy there.”
Even Jesse James’ ex-wife, Janine Lindemulder, got along well with Sandra Bullock. She praised Bullock to TMZ, saying, “[Sandra] has raised our daughter like her own. She sacrificed much … and I will forever be indebted to her for that.”
James and Bullock first met in 2003, started dating, and in 2005, this Hollywood A-lister couple got hitched and later filed for divorce in late April 2010.
