Sandra Bullock has "really been leaning" on Jennifer Aniston following the untimely death of her longtime lover, Bryan Randall. The late photographer died in August 2023, following a three-year private battle with ALS.
The duo, who met in the 1990s, have been friends for about 30 years and have been there for each other through the toughest moments.
An inider told OK! Magazine that Sandra "could have retreated into isolation when he died, but Jen never stopped reaching out," adding that the ‘Just Go With It’ star would not allow Bullock "deal with the loss on her own."
"Obviously, she's not over losing Bryan and probably never will be completely, but Jen helped save her from the crushing grief,” it went on.
"Jen’s gotten Sandra out of the house and made sure she had people around her who love her and make her laugh. She saw Sandra through the toughest months of her life,” the tipster stated.
"They’re ride-or-dies. Their bond will never be broken,” it added.
Jennifer isn't the only Hollywood A-Lister who has come to Sandra's side during her mourning. As OK! As previously reported, former co-star Keanu Reeves has been a "lifesaver" for her, according to another source.
"He’s not only been a shoulder to cry on but has also been there to lift her spirits, make her laugh and see a brighter future ahead," the informant shared.
Meanwhile, The Daily Mail reported that Jennifer Aniston and Sandra Bullock were photographed attending a Broadway performance of Appropriate to support their friend Sarah Paulson recently.
The 55-year-old “Friends” actress, who just spent a girls' day at a cosmetic surgery retreat with Sandra, 59, strolled out of the theatre looking elegant in a long navy coat, black slacks, and boots.
Jennifer completed the appearance with a matching purse and gold earrings. Her blonde hair was pulled up into a low bun, and she wore natural makeup to highlight her cheekbones.
Meanwhile, the “Blind Side” star dressed formally in a pinstriped work pantsuit and matching black heels. The brunette beauty's locks were brushed to the side as she ran out of the theatre, clutching a playbill and her spectacles.
Sandra's 14-year-old adoptive son Louis Bardo joined the Hollywood starlets.
Jennifer and Sandra were seen exiting a well-known Connecticut plastic surgery office on Wednesday, alongside Jason Bateman's wife Amanda Anka. All three ladies were together as they left The Retreat At Split Rock, which is in Greenwich, Connecticut.
The resort specializes in excellent upper and lower face lifts, which range in price from $50,000 to $100,000, as well as brow and eye lifts, which average around $30,000.
They were specifically seen leaving Dr. Neil A Gordon's office. He oversees facial plastic and reconstructive surgery.
According to his website, his specialization is “facial rejuvenation and rhinoplasty,” but he also offers injectables like Botox and Kybella. A full face of Botox can cost roughly $3,000, although Kybella is more pricey at $6,000.
Los Angeles people obviously traveled far to investigate what Dr. Gordon has to offer, and he must be the greatest in his area, as Beverly Hills is brimming with well-known plastic surgeons such as Dr. Garth Fisher and Dr. Paul Nassif who could have completed the procedure without the added trip expense.
All three females dressed casually during their trip, which appeared to be one of “surgery tourism.”
Jennifer stated in 2015 that she was not a lover of injections, stating, “People think that I do a lot of (Botox) injections, but I don't. I'm not saying that I haven't tried it but I see how it's a slippery slope. All that cosmetic stuff looks ridiculous on me. And like we were saying before, they just start to lose perspective, it's their new normal, so it's a hard one to come back from.”
Sandra has also discussed surgery. After appearing with a fuller face at the 2018 Oscars, she informed InStyle the following year that her puffiness was caused by allergies.
“This past Oscars I was sick and had allergies, but I was like, ‘I’m just going to go’ It’s part of my job, and I’m happy to be there,” the “Bird Box” star began. “Then the next day they were saying, ‘Oh, she has cheek fillers and implants.’ When I saw the photos and how swollen I was, I got it. But I was like, ‘Well, if I got injections, I only got them on the top,’ which was not very good,” she joked.
