Sandra Bullock shares rare photos of kids Louis and Laila in summer photo dump
Sandra Bullock gave fans a rare glimpse into her summer with her two children.
The “Practical Magic” star took to Instagram Tuesday to share a carousel of photos from time spent outdoors with family and close friends.
The collection included sweet snaps of her son, Louis, 16, and daughter, Laila, 12, whom she adopted in her late 40s.
“Friends, family, fun, fishies, furries, aaaand work,” Bullock, 62, captioned the post.
One of the more poignant photos showed “The Blind Side” actress visiting her parents’ graves, seemingly alongside her sister, Gesine Bullock-Prado, whom she tagged elsewhere in the carousel.
In June, Bullock shared throwback photos of her two children as part of a Father’s Day tribute to her late father, John W. Bullock, who died in 2018 at the age of 93. She adopted Louis in 2010 and Laila in 2015.
The post featured photos of her father holding her children when they were toddlers, with their faces covered as the Academy Award winner has long kept them out of the spotlight.
“Happy Heavenly Father’s Day, Dad. ❤️,” Bullock wrote in part alongside the photos.
She had previously shared photos of her children when they were younger in May to celebrate Mother’s Day.
Her Instagram post featured a rare look at the “Ocean’s 8” actress cuddled up with her kids in costume, while she called being a mother the “honor of a lifetime.”
She also paid tribute to her late mother, Helga Meyer, who died in April 2000 after battling cancer.
“To all the mamas, No matter how you came to be, Happy Mother’s Day,” Bullock wrote in the caption. “We are all bound by this honor of a lifetime.”
In March 2022, she announced that she would take an indefinite hiatus from acting, telling Entertainment Tonight that she needed to be “in the place that makes [her] happiest.”
At the time, Bullock told the outlet, “I take my job very seriously when I’m at work,” noting that she had what she described as a “24/7” career.
“I just want to be ’24/7′ with my babies and my family,” she continued. “That’s where I’m going to be for a while.”
When asked what she hoped to do during her break, the “Miss Congeniality” star joked that she was looking forward to “servicing their every need” and managing “their social calendar.”
Bullock raised her two children with her longtime partner, the late Bryan Randall, who had a daughter, Skylar Staten Randall, from a previous relationship.
Randall died in August 2023 after privately battling amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) for three years.
Bullock, for her part, is set to return to the big screen with “Practical Magic 2,” reprising her role as Sally Owens alongside co-star Nicole Kidman.
She marked her Instagram debut with a post teasing the highly anticipated sequel.
