Life has been anything but easy for Sandra Bullock lately. The 54-year-old Academy Award-winning actress has been going through a tough time after the passing of her father, John W. Bullock, and her beloved dogs, Poppy and Ruby. But she's not alone in her journey through grief—her close friend Jennifer Aniston has been there for her every step of the way, offering the support and companionship Sandra needs.
In a heartfelt report, a source close to the two reveals the extent of Jennifer's involvement in helping Sandra navigate her pain. "Sandra has been having a really rough patch lately and is still grieving deeply. Jen's doing her best to be there for her," the source told OK! magazine, which hit newsstands recently. "Jen has been Sandra's shoulder to lean on during these trying times. They've spent countless nights together, sipping wine and sharing their thoughts, helping each other through the darkness."
Understanding Grief Together
Jennifer Aniston, herself no stranger to loss, knows what it's like to grieve. In recent years, she lost her mother, Nancy Dow, in 2016 and her beloved dog Norman in 2011. "Sandra’s always been the rock of her family, the one everyone leaned on. But this has really knocked her off her feet," the insider explains. "There are days when she doesn’t want to get out of bed, but she does, because Jen tells her to. Jen has been there every step of the way, making sure Sandra doesn’t feel alone in her sorrow."

Building a Lifelong Bond
For Sandra, having Jennifer by her side is a lifeline she never realized she needed. "Sandra’s never really had a close female confidante before, apart from her sister. She deeply values having someone like Jen in her life now," the source says, highlighting the importance of Jennifer’s presence in Sandra's life during this difficult period.
Just weeks ago, Sandra opened up publicly about the tough time she's been having. "It’s been a really rough few weeks. My dad passed away, and both of my dogs are gone. You turn on the TV or the computer, and it's just endless tragedy. It feels like more than ever now, if you're a woman, you have to be a fighter too. I just don’t feel okay," she admitted during a speech in mid-October.
Support from All Sides
While Jennifer has been an incredible source of comfort, Sandra isn’t alone in her support system. Us Weekly reported that her boyfriend, Bryan Randall, has also been a rock for her after the death of her father. "[Bryan] has been a constant source of strength and support. Bryan makes her feel safe and completely takes care of her. He’s her rock. It’s a tough time, but Sandy is surrounded by Bryan, the kids, and her family," a source told the magazine.
