Sandra Bullock’s son Louis can take credit for introducing Bryan Randall to his mom. Although Louis was only 5 years old at the time, he’s the reason the couple first met, per People. The “Miss Congeniality” actor hired Randall to photograph her son’s birthday in January 2015. But he captured more than just photos of the celebration — he also captured Bullock’s heart. However, it wasn’t until months later that they began their romance.
According to Inside Edition, when Bullock and Randall first met, the photographer was still in a relationship with a much younger woman named Paris St. John. Paris’ mother, Mia St. John, told the outlet, ” They [Paris and Bryan] talked of marriage and kids but Paris was just too young to be thinking about that so we knew that eventually the relationship would come to an end.” Mia told the outlet that Randall and Paris ended things at the beginning of the summer of 2015. Yet, despite her daughter’s breakup with the photographer, Mia still supported him to the fullest.
