Sandra Bullock worried for stepdaughter

By Alexandra Heilbron on January 27, 2011 | 14 Comments


Sandra Bullock is concerned about her former stepdaughter, six-year-old Sunny James. According to the Chicago Sun-Times, Sandra received a call from her ex-husband, Jesse James, hours before he went public with the news of his engagement to 23-year-old tattoo artist Kat Von D. “Sandy is very concerned that all the turmoil in little Sunny’s young life is tough,” a longtime close associate told Sun-Times writer Bill Zwecker. “First there is that messy con­flict between Jesse and Sunny’s mom, [porn star] Janine [Lindemulder], which originally also involved Sandy. Then, along comes the breakup of Sandy’s marriage to Jesse — and all the issues related to that — which Sunny didn’t really understand,’’ given her young age. “Now Jesse brings a new, very different kind of woman into Sunny’s life, who will be a very different kind of stepmother for Sunny. It’s hard to believe she will be as maternal and nurturing as Sandy is,” said the source, referring to Von D’s hard-edge image and reputation.

    Wow, a porn star mother, a sleazy dad and a tattooed stepmom. The kid’s doomed.

    What an absolute ridiculous article.

    She’s such a good person. She has her own kid to worry about now though.

    Kat and Jesse the 2 losers deserve each other…HOWEVER..those poor kids that have such scum bag parents. She is lucky she has someone like Sandra Bullock in her life..OR THERE COULD BE TROUBLE FOR HER!!!

    That poor child – I see juvie in her future. Too bad custody couldn’t go to the step mom (Sandra)

    If Sandra is genuinely concerned….let action be her words…and go for joint-custody….she’s probably get it.

    well this poor child has not got a chance , take control Sandra surely a great stepmom would be much better for the sweet girl

    I don’t know if she’d get custody, she’s not related to the kid in any way, and both James and the mother want custody from each other, so for a judge to give custody to a third party would be really a long shot. It would be nice if she could stay in Sunny’s life in some way, she needs a good role model. Though, Sandra’s probably relieved to be away from those people (not his kids, but the kind of people he hangs out with), I never understood what she saw in him. She’s class, and he’s trash.

    agree L1feless….

    Lifeless, why don’t you and Jo-Anne go away? If you don’t like the article, go somewhere else to whine. It’s rude to come here and say something so lame, you don’t even back up your mindless comments with a reason. I like Sandra, I think she is a sweet person and very classy and I appreciate when Tribute writes stories about her and provides this forum but it’s too bad when dumbasses like you take advantage of the opportunity to be jerks.

    Who are we to comment on the conflicts and issues going on in the lives of others…I mean really! Just because you read some smut magazine about their lives in the grocery store. You all talk about these people like you know them which I am sure you most certainly do not! Get a life of your own to talk crap about!

  12. amber • January 29, 2011 @ 8:52 AM

    Why do people think they have the right to comment on peoples conflicts and issues? Do you know them personally or did you read about them in Us Weekly (a very reliable resource….not!). There is no real truth or validity in tabloids people but after all YOU are what keeps them in buisness. Good for you!

  13. Angel • January 29, 2011 @ 10:48 PM

    Kat is 28 not 23 when people write something they should check their facts

  14. Jo-Anne • January 30, 2011 @ 11:02 AM

    agree, Angel…
