Quotes

Sandra Bullock

Actor and Bryan Randall’s longtime partner

“Louis handled it very differently than Laila. About two years before Bryan passed, he saw it was a dynamic that wasn’t healthy for him to be around. So, he’s very evolved. He’s like, ‘You know what? I’m here for you.’ I didn’t want him to become the man of the family at that age. My job [was] to be both at that time.”

“Eventually, once there is a situation where you’re bedridden, we all have to go there. It was in my house, and I did my best to set up whatever I could, and I am lucky in that I had the means to pay for it.”
