Sandra Bullock’s Longtime Partner Bryan Randall Dead At 57 | General Entertainment

Sandra Bullock’s longtime partner Bryan Randall has died aged 57, it has been confirmed.

The photographer is said to have privately battled with ALS for the past three years. 

Sandra first met Bryan – a model-turned-photographer – in 2015, after he photographed her son Louis’s birthday. 

‘It is with great sadness that we share that on Aug. 5, Bryan Randall passed away peacefully after a three-year battle with ALS,’ his family shared to PEOPLE.

‘Bryan chose early to keep his journey with ALS private and those of us who cared for him did our best to honor his request.’

“We are immensely grateful to the tireless doctors who navigated the landscape of this illness with us and to the astounding nurses who became our roommates, often sacrificing their own families to be with ours,” the family statement continued.

‘At this time we ask for privacy to grieve and to come to terms with the impossibility of saying goodbye to Bryan.’

The statement was signed off by ‘His Loving Family.’ 

Randall’s family have asked for donations to the ALS Association and the Massachusetts General Hospital in lieu of flowers, according to People. 

There is no cure for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis – ALS – and the disease is fatal, but it progresses at different speeds in patients.
