Sandra Bullock was reunited with her ex-husband’s daughter on Christmas Day (25.12.10)

The ‘Blind Side’ actress – who split with motorcyclist Jesse James last year after a string allegations he had cheated on her – had seven-year-old Sunny visit her and her adopted son, 11-month-old Louis Bardo at their home in Austin, Texas, after the little girl spent the morning with her dad and his latest love, reality TV star Kat Von D.

A source told website RadarOnline.com: “Sunny had a star-studded Christmas because she was with Kat Von D in the morning and then she saw Sandra in the afternoon.

“Even although Sandra and her father are no longer together they have remained in touch – she had fun seeing Louis and playing with him although she was not allowed to feed him.

“Despite everything that has happened between Sandra and Jesse, Sandra has remained in touch with Sunny and his other two kids Jesse Jr. and Chandler too.”

It had previously been revealed that 46-year-old Sandra was keen for Louis to spend time with Jesse’s children over the festive season.

A source said recently: “Sandra wants to make sure Louis grows up knowing Jesse’s children, so she is willing to put the past behind her for the sake of the kids.

“Sandra knows that having Jesse’s family in Louis’ life is good for him. So she’s opening her home and her heart to the children, inviting them to visit at Christmastime.”

Jesse currently has full custody of Sunny, while her mother Janine Lindemulder has weekly visitation rights.

Jesse James claims Sandra Bullock was “proud” of him when he went to rehab.

The motorcycle entrepreneur – who underwent treatment for rumoured sex addiction after it emerged he had cheated on his wife – admits he confessed “everything” about his infidelities, after previously telling a string of lies to cover his tracks.

He said: “I told her basically everything, that I had affairs outside of our marriage… I think she had her suspicions but I lied my way out of it. I lied to everyone, even myself.

“I told her I was going to get help and she told me she was proud of me.”

Jesse also spoke of his heartbreak at seeing Sandra with four-month-old adopted son Louis Bardo – who she cares for as a single parent following their marriage split – but admits he understands why he had to be excluded from the legal process.

He added in a forthcoming interview on US TV show ‘Nightline’: “The photographs of them made me sad. But I realise why things had to be done in a certain way.

“To see her in the role as mother is, like, one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen. She is like a fish to water… as soon as she put that baby into her hands, it was automatic and amazing.”

These may be the biggest clues so far that Sandra Bullock was living with baby Louis Bardo — and they surfaced before the Jesse James scandal broke, but no one connected the dots.

The photos show Sandra taking out the trash just days before the Oscars — at the Orange County home she shared with Jesse.  We now know Sandra timed the trash run so the container was left on the street just before trash pickup.  We’re told … had anyone gotten close, they would have smelled baby poop.

And then there’s this … take a look at the pictures taken just days after the Oscars — but still before the scandal broke.  That’s Chi-Lin Sun — the photog who shot the Bullock baby pics for People — going into the Bullock/James O.C. home, carrying a baby blanket and baby clothes and what looks like a Moses baby basket.

Sandra Bullock will continue to co-parent Jesse James’ children.

The Oscar-winning actress – who has filed for divorce from the ‘Monster Garage’ host following allegations he cheated on her with at least four women – says she still wants to play a role in the lives of Chandler, 15, Jesse Jr., 12, and six-year-old Sunny even though she’s no longer with their father.

She told People magazine: “I don’t want to know what life is like without those kids. Whatever we need to do, in the healthiest way, we are going to be co-parenting.”

Yesterday (28.04.10), the 45-year-old beauty announced she had adopted a three-month-old baby boy, Louis Bardo, in January with Jesse but would now be raising him as a single parent.

Sandra filed for divorce on April 23 in Travis County District Court in Austin, Texas, after the marriage became “insupportable”.

Papers obtained by ‘Access Hollywood’ stated: “The marriage… has become insupportable because of discord or conflict of personalities that destroys the legitimate end of the marriage/relationship and prevents any reasonable expectations of reconciliation.”

Speaking about the legal separation, Sandra said: “I’m sad and I’m scared.”

Jesse, 41, has also spoken out about the divorce, saying losing Sandra is the “hardest” thing he has ever faced and is devastated she will now be the sole guardian of Louis.

He said: “My whole life has been full of hard decisions. The decision to let my wife end our marriage, and continue the adoption of Louis on her own, has been the hardest. The love I have for Louis cannot be put to words. Not having him around to love and to hold has left a huge hole in my heart.”

Sandra & Angelina — The Adoption Connection

Sandra Bullock and Angelina Jolie share a very interesting connection — and it all has to do with their adopted babies Louis Bardo and Maddox, respectively … and the timing of their divorces.

Sandra told People Magazine she and Jesse James set the wheels in motion to adopt Louis Bardo together … but divorce changed the plan.  Sandra now says she’s filing for single parent adoption.

TMZ has learned that’s exactly what happened between Angelina Jolie and Billy Bob Thornton.  Although this has not been reported, sources connected with their divorce in 2003 tell TMZ, Angie and B.B. were going to jointly adopt Maddox, but when they decided to divorce, the plan changed and Billy Bob backed out of the adoption.

Adoption experts we’ve spoken with say turning a husband/wife adoption into a single parent adoption can complicate the adoption process … but it seems to have worked out for both Angelina and Sandra.
