Sandra Bullock has confirmed she has filed for divorce from her husband and she is a new mother - she secretly adopted a baby boy.
Louis, who was born in New Orleans, was formally welcomed into the Bullock family in January after a four-year adoption process.
Bullock and James decided to keep the adoption news secret until after the Oscars, where Bullock won a best actress gong for The Blind Side, but 10 days after the ceremony they separated following reports that James had had an 11-month affair with tattooed model Michelle "Bombshell" McGee.
Sandra Bullock told she was shocked by James' infidelity, which made her feel “sad and scared".
She said she was filing for divorce and was finalising Louis’ adoption as a "single parent".
Bullock said she chose her baby's name because she heard Louis Armstrong's song What a Wonderful World playing in her head when she first saw him.
Bullock tells the magazine, "It's like he's always been a part of our lives."
