Sandra Bullock’s late boyfriend, Bryan Randall, was pictured for the last time in public with the actress in May 2020.

The photographer, who died at age 57 last week following a secret battle with ALS, was spotted driving a black Range Rover in Los Angeles with The Proposal star in the passenger seat, reports Page Six.

Randall kept his eyes focused on the road, as he donned a pair of dark aviator-style shades and a baseball cap.

Bullock, 59, cut an equally casual figure beside him, opting for sunglasses and a white baseball cap.

Two months prior to the car sighting, Randall was photographed smiling while on a walk with Bullock and her two children

His family confirmed in a statement to Page Six that he died “peacefully” on August 5, 2023 after a “three-year battle with ALS.”

“It is with great sadness that we share that on August 5, Bryan Randall passed away peacefully after a three-year battle with ALS,” his family shared on Monday.

“Bryan chose early to keep his journey with ALS private and those of us who cared for him did our best to honour his request,” the statement went on.

“We are immensely grateful to the tireless doctors who navigated the landscape of this illness with us and to the astounding nurses who became our roommates, often sacrificing their own families to be with ours.”

The family concluded by requesting “privacy to grieve and to come to terms with the impossibility of saying goodbye to Bryan.”

He first met the Blind Side actress when he was hired to photograph her adopted son Louis‘ birthday in January 2015.

Their relationship quickly became romantic, and they attended her pal Jennifer Aniston’s wedding to Justin Theroux together that August.

Two months later, they made their red carpet debut as a couple at the premiere of her 2015 film Our Brand Is Crisis.

“I found the love of my life,” Bullock gushed in a December 2021 episode of Red Table Talk.

“We share two beautiful children — three children, his older daughter. It’s the best thing ever.”

Along with Louis, Bullock also adopted her daughter, Laila, in December 2015.

Randall, for his part, was a dad to adult daughter Skylar from a previous relationship.

Following Randall’s passing, the Miss Congeniality actress’ sister, Gesine Bullock-Prado, called her an “amazing” caregiver who “assembled” a band of nurses to care of her boyfriend in his final years.

Bullock even put her acting career on hold to care for him, sources exclusively told Page Six Tuesday.

Although she made a handful of appearances to promote The Lost City in 2022, Randall was noticeably absent from her public outings.
