Sandra Bullock says she will be able to’t totally course of the cut up from Jesse James over infidelity over their new child

• Sandra Bullock recalled worrying that her divorce from Jesse James would affect her son.

• Bullock filed for divorce in 2010 shortly after adopting a child, Louis.

• The actress told CBS that she couldn’t fully process her grief over the breakup to protect Louis.

Sandra Bullock said on CBS’s “Sunday Morning” that the first year of raising her son Louis was difficult, especially after she split from Jesse James over his infidelity.

Bullock and James, a former reality star who married Bullock in 2005 after two years of dating, filed for divorce in 2010 after multiple women came forward to say James had relationships with them while he was with Bullock.

At the time, Bullock had just won her first Oscar for The Blind Side and adopted a child, Louis — but those achievements have been overshadowed by public division.

Speaking to CBS ahead of the release of her latest movie, The Lost City, Bullock said she was concerned about how the infidelity scandal and her subsequent split from James might affect her son.

“I mean, so much had happened,” said Bullock, 57. “How do you process grief while not hurting your child? It’s a newborn. You accept whatever you feel. So I had an obligation to him not to burden the first year of his life with my grief.”

Bullock has been in a long-term relationship with photographer Bryan Randall since splitting from James. In 2015, she also adopted a second child, Laila.

During the wide-ranging interview, Bullock also spoke about the hardships of being a mother of two black children.

“I have a level of defense that millions of mothers who aren’t white have,” she said. “I understand how scary it is, and I just get very emotional because I think of hundreds of years of women who could never relax about motherhood — they could never relax.”

The story goes on

Bullock said on Red Table Talk last year that she is very protective of her children and that she has “teached” Louis about racial discrimination since he was 6 years old.

“I let him process that,” she said. “He knows how the world works. He knows how cruel she is. He knows how unfair she is and now Laila knows it.”

Bullock stars in The Lost City, which hits theaters this week.
