On Wednesday Kaiser covered news of this week’s In Touch Weekly story, which claims that Jesse James is trying to win Sandra Bullock back by moving closer to her home in Austin along with using Sandra’s stepdaughter, Sunny, as a pawn. The cover of In Touch claims there’s “Baby 2 on The Way” for Sandra with the title of their article “A Sister for Louis.” As Kaiser predicted, it is just a vague story about how Sandra is planning to adopt again, which her rep categorically denies. In Touch quotes an “insider” who says “She’s telling friends about her plans to adopt again. She’s already been approved and she’s just waiting for the call that her baby is here.” Sandra’s rep states very firmly “as of now, she has no intention and has never thought of adopting another child.”
Adding credence to In Touch’s story that Jesse is holding out hope for a reunion, a source close to his ex wife, Janine Lindemulder, tells Radar that Jesse believes he’ll get back with her. Sandra has said nothing but positive things about him since this scandal broke, and told People “I really don’t know how our paths will intersect in the future, but the father I have known Jesse to be with all the kids is one I hope Louis can experience one day, no matter how Jesse and I go on with our lives.” She’s also already filed for divorce, though, with Jesse saying on Nightline that there was “absolutely” no chance of saving their marriage. It’s not like we can believe anything coming out of that guy’s weak little mouth, though.
Here’s Radar’s report:
But Lindemulder, who was married to James for 2 years, believed it was all a public relations ploy.
“As far as Janine is concerned Jesse is just a master con artist who was trying to manipulate the situation for his own ends,” the source told RadarOnline.com.
“She does not think that the abuse James claimed he suffered at the hands of his father was anywhere near as bad as he claimed.
“Janine feels that Jesse was left scarred towards women after his own mom abandoned him when he was only 7-years-old.
“Jesse really is a control freak who reacts really badly towards people when he cannot get his own way. His father stood-up to him at times and he resented that.”
“He believes that Sandra will take him back in time and that they just have to stay apart for a while for the sake of her public image.
“His ego is so big that he cannot really accept that he brought about his own downfall and nobody else.”

I think this is true that Jesse is deluding himself with visions of a reunion, but I also think that Sandra will no longer fall for it. She has too many good people around her and hopefully she’s seen too much to get fooled by this scam artist again. The good news is that the divorce is already underway. Plus Sandra filed in Texas, which may also explain why James is moving down there. He’ll need to be around for hearings related to his divorce. While rumor has it that these two have an ironclad prenup I would bet that their divorce doesn’t go as smoothly as predicted. James will want to throw some wrenches into the works to prove how much he still loves that woman he cheated on for years.

Gross. Yuck. Hate him.
i still think they will get back together one day. not real soon but one day.
I hope she makes it very clear to him that she will always love the kids and will be civil towards him for that reason, but their marriage is DONE. I don’t think she would have filed for divorce if she thought there was a chance of reconciliation.
I do think it’s damage control on his part, but if he tries to get nasty in the divorce, that will not help. He needs to accept that he blew it, and not make things harder for anyone.
I’ve always gotten the really scary feeling that Sandra had kind of an arrangement with him and that she will take him back once the dust settles.
I hope I’m wrong. I think she’s always had kind of a kinky side. I started paying attention to that when she was dating Ryan Gosling. They are about 17 years different in age. I have no problem with that, but it indicates someone whose girl-next-door image doesn’t exactly mesh with her private sexuality.
recommintment ceremony coming soon 😀
They’ll get back together. Probably sooner than later. Dickmatized (shout out to Michael K).
I know it is none of our business (none of this stuff is, really…) but I sincerely hope she does not let this POS back into her intimate life. Anyone who could do what, and who, he did, is vile.
There are quite a few billion people on earth, don’t we all think Sandra can find one who is fun, intelligent, honest, great looking (although that does not seem to be a prerequisite) and worthy of the kind of person we all assume she is?
C’mon Sandra, I can find you someone better than Venereal Gorilla!
I really don’t see how she can reconcile with this douche and come out smelling like a rose…??? Her PR people have their work cut out for them if it happens.
I think they will get back together also. But, I think in the end it will be little Sunny who clouds Sandy’s mind. She clearly loves and adores that child. And in the end that will be what has Sandy going back to Jesse.
I hope so. I know I don’t have to mention that I am ashamed of the fact the I want a J & S reunion because I do everytime I say it and, yet: Shamefully I hope they do make it work.
ahhh…with time people start to forget.
God, I hope not. Please,Sandra have better sense than this.
Using your children as pawns to try to win back the wife you cheated on with multiple skeezy women is the lowest of the low. Especially when you know how close she is to the little girl and you didn’t care about destroying the family you made together.
I’m gonna get flamed for it but …. I still think he’s hottt.. *runs out of room quick like a bunny *
She didn’t have enough sense the first time…
in the bottom photo he looks developmentally challenged.
If she gets back together with him she will lose all credibility, and the “America’s Sweetheart” crown goes to the next pretty little liar.
I think Sandra just wants to keep friendly so the divorce goes smoothly and, of course, for the kids. She’s not a fool.
If she got back together with him there would be a backlash for all the goodwill sent her way I think alot of people would start to believe she knew about his activities and her career would be back in the toilet.
I hope she finds herself a good loyal man who will treat her like a queen. Jesse should stay with his own kind, the tatooed, white power women he likes so much.
“Is he right?”…that he can get Sandra back. I hope not!!! Why do the media and so many people always want couples that break up to get back together again, especially when one half of the couple (usually the man) screws up. Isn’t it bad enough that we have to read the incessant “Brad and Aniston reuniting” stories!? Everybody needs to move on!
There is absolutely no way – no way – she is going to get back together with him. She is ultimately a wonderful person for letting him be a part of Louis’ life and I’m sure she means it when she said the Jesse she knows is a wonderful parent, but she has serious issues with trust.
She’s mentioned it over and over and in the Barbara Walters interview before the Oscars said, the reason she didn’t get married before was because she never felt she could trust anyone fully until Jesse. He blew that trust out of the water. How could she go back to him? The one thing that she needs most she’ll never have with him again.
She’s not going back to him. Ever.
No, I don’t think so.
I doubt she would go back to him. If it was one woman for a few months, maybe. But several woman for their entire marriage is a completely different story.
She’ll never go back to that abuser of trust.
I think they probably will, yeah. I don’t like either of them, though. To me, Jesse is a lying creep whom I can’t even stand to look at and Sandra is a fake “I’m entitled to everything” selfish type of person. Not saying Jesse isn’t those things as well, but Sandra just came off like that to me, especially during the custody thing where she tried taking the kids away from Jesse’s ex, their own mother. Yeah, she had problems, but they were in the past and shouldn’t have been held against her like that.
Meh, nobody deserves to be cheated on but I think they deserve each other
I don’t think she will, and if she does she’ll lose a legion of fans and the respect of her son when he’s old enough to know what racism is.
Jesse is using the kids to gain control of the situation, by manpulating them, that’s so wrong, that’s going scar them for life, that shows you he is selfish & self centered. he’ll stop @ nothing to get what he wants even if it means the kids pysch. Once a cheater always a cheater,who knows the std’d from that other skank. sandra run and don’t look back! you are a beautiful person both in & out & b-4 you know it you’l b walking down the isle with a man that loves & adores only you, and will b faithful to you! Get tested. I did w/ my ex husband even if they use protection, it can fail! and go through some type of divorce care it’s important to heal, you & your children, because anger & resentment can destroy a person, it;s like poison. your’re in my prayers, & congrads, please make sure that you go through some type divorce care or counseling otherwise you are going to try using other things to fill the void, & and it’s only going to work temporarly I know been through it, now I’m in college to become a Counselor.
Sandra, you made yourself look so good to everyone when you walked out the door the second you heard. Now if you get back, you will make yourself look so bad. You don’t need him for your son, there are many men who can take on a good dad role. He is not the only fish in the sea. This is only a challenge for Jesse to see if he can get you back to build his ego. These spoiled brats think they can do whatever they want no matter how devastating it is to the other people, and don’t ever have to pay for their actions~don’t let him get away with this, don’t take him back. If you do, he will do it again because by taking him back you are saying it is OK to do what he did. You will not gain a father for your son by taking him back but only a weak mother. Have dignity, stay strong and keep the backbone.
