Sandra shares parenting tasks with her boyfriend Bryan Randall , whom she has referred to as the love of her life: “We share two beautiful children – three children, with his eldest daughter -, it’s the best there is,” she revealed to the artist on “Red Table Talk” last December, referring to the 55-year-old photographer.
