NEWSKeanu Reeves 'Has Been a Shoulder' for Friend Sandra Bullock to Cry on After Bryan Randall’s Sudden Death: Actor Has 'Been a Lifesaver'
Keanu Reeves has been a great friend to Sandra Bullock as she continues to grieve partner Bryan Randall's tragic death.
According to source, The Matrix actor, 59, has been there for anything The Blind Side actress, 59, needs amid the devastating loss.
Keanu Reeves is known for his role in 'The Matrix.'
“Keanu has been a lifesaver. 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 insider shared.
Bullock — who lost Randall to a three-year ALS battle in August 2023 — can trust Reeves, who has also experienced intense loss, as in 1999, Reeves' girlfriend Jennifer Syme gave birth to their stillborn daughter.
Reeves and Syme then split but reunited in 2001 before Syme died at 28 years old in a shocking car accident. Reeves now has a loving relationship with girlfriend Alexandra Grant, 50, which gives Bullock “hope for another relationship in her future.”
