Sandra Bullock's partner, Bryan Randall, has died at the age of 57.
A family statement confirmed that Randall 'passed away peacefully after a three-year battle with ALS'.
"It is with great sadness that we share that on Aug. 5, Bryan Randall passed away peacefully after a three-year battle with ALS," the emotional family statement provided to PEOPLE read.
"Bryan chose early to keep his journey with ALS private and those of us who cared for him did our best to honor his request.

"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.
"At this time we ask for privacy to grieve and to come to terms with the impossibility of saying goodbye to Bryan.
"His Loving Family."

Bullock, 59, reportedly met the model-turned-photographer when he took pictures at her son Louis' birthday back in January 2015.
Their relationship was made public later that year after they were seen together at Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux's wedding.
The Bird Box actor, who is mother to Louis, 13, and Laila, 10, previously told Red Table Talk that she had 'found the love of my life'.
Back in 2021, she said: "We share two beautiful children— three children, [Randall's] older daughter. It's the best thing ever.

"I don't wanna say do it like I do it, but I don't need a paper to be a devoted partner and devoted mother.
"I don't need to be told to be ever present in the hardest of times. I don't need to be told to weather a storm with a good man."
She continued to say that Randall is a great 'example' to her kids.

"He's the example that I would want my children to have," she said.
"I have a partner who's very Christian and there are two different ways of looking at things.
"I don't always agree with him, and he doesn't always agree with me. But he is an example even when I don't agree with him."
"I'm stubborn but sometimes I need to sit back and listen and go, 'You're saying it differently but we mean exactly the same thing'.

"It's hard to co-parent because I just want to do it myself."
Estimates suggest that ALS is responsible for as many as five in every 100,000 deaths in people 20 years of age or older in the U.S.
