00:00 Sandra Bullock is one of the most successful actresses ever.
00:04 But not everything is perfect behind the glittering Hollywood facade.
00:07 The film stars had to endure some dramatic strokes of fate in her life.
00:13 And now her partner, photographer Brian Randall, died as a result of his ALS disease.
00:18 For three years he battled courageously against the neurological illness.
00:24 He died on August 5th at the age of 57, his family told People.
00:27 Randall has been with Sandra Bullock since 2015.
00:31 The actress described her partner as "the love of my life" on Red Table Talk.
00:36 Even at a young age, things were not easy for Sandra Bullock.
00:39 As the child of a German mother and an American father, she initially grew up in Germany.
00:45 This was followed by moves to Austria and finally to the USA.
00:49 Before she got her breakthrough as an actress, Sandra also had to struggle with many part-time
00:53 jobs.
00:56 She worked as a waitress, cleaner, dancer and dog groomer, among other things.
01:01 One of her most public strokes of fate happened in 2010.
01:03 During her Oscar acceptance speech, she made a declaration of love to her then-husband
01:07 Jesse James.
01:11 Only a short time later, it became known that he had cheated on Sandra Bullock several times.
01:15 After five years of marriage, they divorced.
01:20 In 2010 and 2015, Sandra Bullock became the proud mother of her adopted children, Louis
01:25 and Layla.
01:26 Louis once suffered a severe seizure which put a heavy mental strain on Bullock.
01:35 Her house was also broken into while she was at home.
01:38 The Hollywood star then developed extreme anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder.
01:44 In a Red Table Talk episode, she summarized her thoughts back then, saying this, "If
01:49 I don't pull myself together, I'll die.
01:52 Something is going to happen to my body that I can't control."
01:54 "I'm not going to die.
01:55 I'm going to be okay."
01:56 "I'm not going to die.
01:57 I'm going to be okay."
01:57 "I'm not going to die.
01:58 I'm going to be okay."
01:59 "I'm not going to die.
02:00 I'm going to be okay."
