It took about a week after Ryan Reynolds and Scarlett Johansson’s separation announcement for the tabloids to begin pushing stories about Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock. Bullock was friends with both Ryan and ScarJo – in fact, Ryan and ScarJo were supposed to be pretty close to Jesse James too, and when the couples were partnered up, it’s said that they all spent time together. Anyway, I have no idea why the tabloids are making it seem like Sandra is more “Team Reynolds” when she hasn’t issued one word or pushed any story about her friends. Perhaps the tabloids just the like idea of Sandra with Ryan… although I can’t think why. It seems like a horrible pairing. Or maybe Sandy is Team Reynolds… because ScarJo fooled around Ryan…? We’ll probably never know.
Anyway, PopEater has another story trying to make Sandy & Ryan happen. This actually makes it seem like they’re close to doing it:
Sandra Bullock has been spending a lot of time with Scarlett Johansson’s soon-to-be ex-husband, Ryan Reynolds, leaving many to wonder if the two are romantically involved.
“Sandra loves Ryan,” a friend of Ryan’s tells me. “They became very good friends when they filmed ‘The Proposal,’ but they are not a couple, at least not yet.”
For now, “They love spending quality time together.”
Adding fuel to the rumors, the two celebrated New Year’s together at Bess Bistro, which Sandra owns in Texas. New photographs show them sitting next to each other with three other friends — with Sandra dressed as a flapper.
“They are both newly single and leaning on each other for support,” an insider tells me. “Who knows what will happen in the future, but any rumors of them being together and splitting up Ryan’s marriage to Scarlett are false.”
My source adds: “Sandra would never get involved with a married man after what her ex did to her. She has way too much respect for Scarlett, Ryan, the institution of marriage and herself to do that.”
[From PopEater]
I’ll buy that Sandra is the only one with a healthy respect for the institution of marriage. I think she took her vows seriously, and I think she was faithful to Jesse, and that she was devastated when her marriage fell apart. Not so much for ScarJo and Ryan. But this gives me a chance to reprint the old People Magazine interview from last year where Ryan and Sandra are climbing up each other’s asses about how their marriages are so great:
People Mag: You and Jesse and Scarlett are all close. Why do you get along so well?
Reynolds: [To Bullock] I love that your marriage – and forgive the ineloquence here – is not for sale.
Bullock: We’re very similar in that way. There’s an honor and a level of integrity that exists in their home that I really admire … [To Reynolds] I’m just happy you found a good human being. They both take excellent care of each other and they’re honorable, beautiful people.
[From People Mag, previous post]
Yeah. Sandra is the only one I have genuine sympathy for. And I seriously hope she’s not riding GerbilFace McDouche.

Don’t shoot me Kaiser but I kind of think they’d be a good match don’t ask me why. She did date Ryan Gosling way back when so she does like younger men.
Oh gawd no, please no!
I think they’d make a cute couple. He seems to like older women.
RP machine (if it’s true) like Toothy Tiles/Taylor Swift or Bieber/Gomez
Eeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhh??
AAAWW! I love how he’s looking into her pretty eyes on picture one… *LOL 🙂
Please. Surely Sandra B can do better than this?
I don’t hate them together, either….mostly because I think Ryan seems to have a sort of awe-struck respect for her that would keep him on the straight n’ narrow. To get to nail someone you adore the hell out of on a regular basis does tend to keep someone in line………?
Oh no!!! I read elsewhere that there’s pics of them spening New Year’s day together at her restuarant in Austin. This makes me so sad. I can’t get past the feeling that Ryan is a class A douche and not the kind of guy Sandra needs. I know they’re good friends, but I’m starting to get suspicious especially with all the quality time they’re spending together. Why can’t she spend that time with Keanu Reeves instead? Sob! If there’s anything going on, here’s hoping it’s just a hot and heavy fling that burns out like yesterday.
WhiteNoise, well, but isn’t that exactly what everybody said about SB and JJ?
can definitely see a hook-up or two in the making with them…probably no more than that tho.
i can see it, they’d make a good match, yes.
they look good together, IN MY OWN OPINION.
Interesting…
They make more sense that Ryan and Scarlet and it’s definitively an upgrade for both of them.
And the plot thickens!
@ Dany:
I noticed that too. Can’t blame him for that though, she’s got really nice “eyes”.
I can’t believe how Ryan’s team is trying to sell this break up for every cent of publicity, especially after all his claims of being so private. At least Scarlett and her people are keeping their traps shut, which leads me to believe she’s the one who actually wanted privacy. They were young, they had a short marriage. I don’t buy for a second that anyone is “devestated” – its offensive to compare what Sandra went through to what Ryan is going through. Sandra had just adopted a child, she and Jesse had built a family together.
After VANILLA GORILLA??! I’ll allow it.
Sandra does not need that in her life.
Sandra is too smart to hook up with man before he is divorced imo .
Aren’t they actually best friends? I don’t see these two pairing up but if they do, more power to them.
My guess is they’re just friends, but his PR team certainly doesn’t mind stories like this.
I’d think she could do better, but then again, just about anyone is a step up from her ex.
She can ride him all she wants, as long as she doesn’t get emotionally entangled with him. He’s too arrogant to be in a relationship with anyone other than himself. LOVE how he’s looking down her dress in the header pic! Classic.
that first photo is hilarious!
i think he’s super hot, smart and funny. they would make a cute couple and it’s also a nice way to start out – as friends….
I’m good with this one. I don’t think Ryan is as bad as some of you do, and I don’t think Sandra Bullock is as great as some of you do. It’s probably B.S. anyway!
I like them – I wish this was true!
I also wouldn’t mind these two together. I adore him, I don’t think he’s a douche. But that’s only because I am not a fan of ScarJo at all. I think him and Sandra had great chemistry in that movie and think they both keep their relationship private.
Let them get a good lay, who cares? They are both single now.
Both he and scarjo filed for divorce on the same day.
I think its great that neither one of them had to celebrate NYE alone. I for one am glad Ryan got out, he probably needed it. In spite of all of the divorce comments that are being made, ending a marriage cannot be easy for either one of them. Divorce is like death, it is a loss and it appears there is still a lot of love between them. They have tried the entire 3 yrs to keep off the public radar but we as fans would not allow that. Sandra can understand this, because she just went thru a public divorce. There is a comment from a person feeling like he is a class A douche, how would you like a public attack on your character like this. From every account I have read about this separation, he has been nothing but a perfect gentleman.
Sandra has a close circle of friends, look at how they kept her secret and guarded her pricacy with Louis thru all that Jessie mess. They could just be good friends. Let’s see if Ryan shows up on her N.Y. set when she starts filming her new movie with Tom Hanks.
@Ranie- It’s called having an opinion. I suspect none of us who post on here know any of the celebrities we comment on personally. But the site is called “celebitchy” for a reason. So please don’t pontificate just because you have a different opinion.
And I still think Ryan comes across as a douche!
Nope!These two are simply good friends and nothing more! I think Scarlet was too young to get married, that’s why it didn’t work out.
Love them both! Hope it’s true. Yay!
I hope so!!! She deserves a HOT guy!! Jesse was such a step down for her!! They look good together!!!
in the first picture you can see EXACTLY what he wants
Love Sandy!! But I don’t think he is right for her, especially due to the age difference. She needs someone more to her level.
I lost all respect –
she is not that smart of a person with low self esteem, shows repeatedly in the men she chose, and he, is a climber/user, upgrade whenever there are better opportunities
They actually have really good chemistry together. Search for the Unscripted The Proposal video on YT if interested.
Kaiser- I usually agree with your douche shout-outs, but I really like RR! He was adorable at Comic Con last year. And he was super cute on Sesame Street. And I think they make a good looking couple. He’s so not a gerbil-faced douche!
Kaiser don’t cut me BUT I think they’d make an attractive couple–never knew what Sandy saw in Jesse James.
time will tell.
I dont see him being into Sandra romantically. I think they are just good friends and should stay that way.
He’s cute, anything is an improvement over no personality,DogMan. I hope they do hook up.
ahahahaha!!!
is he checking out her boobs?!?!
right in front of the paparazzi!?!!?
No way she would let him near her child. She will think twice before letting another man into her life.
She’s too old for him for it to be lasting. Not that I don’t think she’s gorgeous, but he’s a rising star, kind of the “it” guy right now, and all those young gorgeous things he will be co-starring with, I only see a bad ending to it all.
PLEASE NO!!
He looks pretty on her arm. They seem like just friends, but if they have a little consolation fling it’s OK with me.
I have a theory-Reynolds strikes me as a social climber and a little bit of a famewhore (see gossip rags for leaked stories of his ‘devastation and heartbreak’.)
Think about it: He gets with a more famous significant other and rides her coatails until she’s no use to him anymore.
Examples:
Alanis: She was the more famous then him when they were together and their relationship brought him alot of attention.
Scarjo- A serious upgrade for him, I mean she was the Sexiest Woman Alive, young and one of the most promising actresses at the time.
And now he’s angling for:
Sandra Bullock- America’s Sweetheart
Now I do think he had feelings for all of these women and I do think he has some talent but I also believe he benefited greatly for being with them also.
I agree with @ Whitenoise:
PLEASE. Surely Sandra B can do better than this?!
I think they would make a cute pair so I don’t mind if this happens eventually.
me thinks they are just friends hanging out.
I like them – I wish this was true!
a-line wedding dresses
mermaid wedding dresses
strapless wedding dresses
They make a great couple in fact. I hope it works for these two.
Gross. Someone tell that talentless perv we can see him looking down Sandra’s dress. How Ben Aflecky of him.
Gross, gross, gross. Almost like marrying a piece of trash cheater who actually had unprotected sex with a porno chick and then married her before you.
Oh yeah, someone please help Sandy out. She doesn’t always see the guy’s douchieness in time to avoid the full head on collision.
I, too, refuse to countenance the very IDEA! Not Hugo Boy, never him! ;D
Rebound guy. Don’t get your panties in a twist. Yes, Keanu sounds wonderful though
Isn’t she a lesbian? Why would she do this all over again with another PR relationship….gonna blow up all over her face, once again.
@Mimi – I actually see your point. It certainly does his image no harm to be ‘associated’ with Sandra as much as possible, she’s the reigning queen of hollywood and perhaps his team is hoping some of that would rub off on him too. Not that he needs it, he seems like a fairly liked guy. But vanity knows no bounds eh?
Btw, most of the reporting on this story has been taken down. The DM site has deleted it and some other sites have taken it down as well. Seems as if someone’s team (read Sandra’s) has been on the move. There was statement released by her rep (interesting that both times the romance stories have cropped up, it’s been *her* people issuing the strictly friends statement and not his). She does not want people thinking they’re more than friends. Also, the photos taken were clearly indoors, someone in the restaurant sneakily snapping away perhaps? I can’t help but feel his team is feeding the tabs with little suggestive tidbits about them, although that could just be my dislike for RR talking.
Of course, if later on it turns out they are/were hooking up, her people are going to look very silly and foolish indeed.
Don’t see this happening at all.. Sandra is a lot older with a child. She just came off divorce and he is in the process.
Besides he is just UGH. And while I like Sandra I think she needs to seek some advice on men. Her radar is really off.
I don’t understand all the Ryan Reynolds hating. He seems like an OK guy to me. If anything, he’s boring. She needs boring.
huh!?! what?!? why!?!
on the other hand, they can both be complete goofballs if they want to – i actually can see the attraction here. two goofballs on the stage (of life), acting and reacting against each other. it’ll be fun.
This is an endorse-able couple. I didn’t like him with Scarjo. It didn’t seem real…..more like a buy-one-get-one-free business consideration. But at any rate, these two certainly can commiserate. And there’s no shortage of conversation material……..
I don’t like him, but it’s a huge step up from Jesse James, so I say, go for it.
Sandra don’t do it!
I like both of these 2, but I think they would make an awful, awful couple.
