Sandra Bullock's divorce from Jesse James is final

File this one under "Don't mess with Texas": Sandra Bullock's divorce from Jesse James is final, TMZ reports.

Unlike California, which has a six-month minimum wait from filed to farewell, Texas lets couples knock that business out in as few as 60 days, start to finish.

Bullock, who has a home in Austin, filed for divorce in Travis County on April 23, and, according to TMZ sources, the final papers were signed last week. James said recently that he's moving to Austin as well. 

For the record, we're filing this one under "Don't mess with Sandra Bullock" as well.

Sandra Bullock is a beautiful rich girl.She does'nt need money,she needs only sex that's why she married a junkie Jesse James.James was looking for a free sex with a celebrity beautiful brainless girl.Now it's OK for both of them a find a new mate for sex.James would be receiving a spousal support for life from Sandra just like Elizabeth Taylor.

[Mary Beth]

Although I understand what it is like to have a spouse cheat on a person, been there on the receiving end, I also believe that two people should do everything to work it out.

None of us know, and it isn't any of our business, what transpired between Sandra and Jesse, I am dissapointed that Sandra wasn't receptive to work things out after Jesse gets help.

I watched the interview he had and it appears he had issues and that he was finally getting the help he needed.

Lastly, could the press stay out of the stars business? This is private and yes I'm sure it sells newspapers, but how would you feel it your private life was posted all over the media?

Good for Sandra Bullock. She didn't waste time to put him in his place. These men need to see that women are not just there to be taken advantage of and that cheating has consequences. It's too bad there aren't more strong women like her because if there were, maybe men would "think about it" next time.

[Amanda Steward]

Kick ass Sandra and take names later. I am so glad she is done with the piece of crap! She deserves better than him. She is beautiful, funny and extremely talented and she deserves the same kind of man.

Mary Beth,
I can respect the fact that you worked through your cheating spouses unfaithfulness and I am sure that if my husband ever cheated on me I would do the best I could to forgive and forget but Jesse James repeatedly slept with Bombshell McGee, I can honestly say that if my husband cheated on me with that kind of trash I would kick him to the curb too!

RE:Bon remarks..Texas has limited spousal support. It
is very limited and is for a mate that needs job training,
etc..Not Alimony, it is called Spousal Maintence and is
only under certain circumstances.It is not for a lifetime
it is a Max of 3 years..( only disability would make it
longer) the divorce is in Austin, Texas..these rules will
apply.Google Alimony in Texas the rules are there..
We are glad to have Sandra back and I believe Jesse has
learned his lesson..the children are first with them.
Jesse's children love Sandra that is why they are both
coming to Austin..I wish them both well..and Welcome Home

[Ladyfamous]

Mary Beth shut the *@%& up really! Are you that brainless? First of all you're sitting here saying that the media should mind their own business, but you're on here throwing in your 2 cents right? Second of all who are you to decide who gets a second chance, you're talking about the media being nosey, but goshdamn you're probably worst then they are! Over here saying she should of gave him a second chance. Please, give me a break!

Mercedes, sound slike you might have a chip on your shoulders. "These men need to see that women are not just there to be taken advantage of and that cheating has consequences. It's too bad there aren't more strong women like her because if there were, maybe men would "think about it" next time." You do realize that just as many women CHEAT as men if not more, the only difference is they are better at not getting caught. I've been cheated on twice from women that couldnt keep their legs closed, no biggy you move on and so does life. Sandra did the right thing in divorcing Jesse and she'll be just fine, but dont play that feminist card.

[Dan OHara]

How in the world does a guy, even a dumb one, cheat on Sandra Bullock? She's only one of the most talented and beautiful women in North America. If she should ever marry again, I hope she finds someone who appreciates her.

[deborah]

I think she did what was right for her. She is not brainless and doesn't think of herself as a pretty little rich girl.It is not the 50's anymore. People don't stay together because of the kids.Sometimes that is what's best for them.It's good that he is getting help.Maybe next time he'll treat his wife with the respect she deserves. At least he could have found someone that didn't look like trailer trash.What an insult to Sandra. Hope to see you in Austin sometime Sandra so I can tell you in person what an insiperation you are to women going thru the same thing. God bless you

Bon,
Cupcakes! How is it that you are privy to what Jessie will recieve as support payments.
Sandra Bullock is a beautiful, talented woman,and one of mny favorite actress.
I was wondering just how you came to know these juicy details?
Are you a close friend?
In the court system,working as a clerk?
Your Aunti thinks you have become a little carried away with yourself...we all do..dear..take a deep breath now and do try to be more factual.
love
your
Aunti Jack

i do love and respect sandra so much...i hope she can find better life elsewhwere ,,,

i would like to say for media plz stay away as this is a very sensitive time that is sandra is passing through...leave her alone ..and of course its none of ur business

hope to see sandra smiling again...

[Che Guevarra]

maybe the reason j.j. cheated on her is because she was too busy kissing women. not all men are interested in bi sexual women. a marriage is a friendship. now after some years your wife wants to kiss and sleep with other women. not a good thing. so he gets blamed for wanting what he used to have at home.

[MIke]

Relative to the perennial "Just leave them alone" cry you hear from people when talking about SB/JJ or Tiger Woods, or anyone else who gets caught with their hands (or something else) in the cookie jar (or yet something else). Like it or not, those in the public eye make a deal with the devil, those that complain about it are just tilting at windmills, or arguing with gravity.

There are LOTS of perks being out there drawing attention to yourself, but yes there is a downside. . and this is it. And that as they say. . is life.

[chrissie]

Sandra herself PICKED this jerk -- this shows how superficial she must be! Now, how many men are banging down her door to date her???

[chrissie]

SB IS NOT SO COOL...SOMETHING IS WRONG IF SHE IS KISSING A WOMAN! What man wants a wife so sleazy?

[Keith Grant]

Did she know what the new man will do to her heart? I am not surprised, these fools do not understand what marriage is all about. They always think marriage is just partnership. Anyway, it is their life, they can live it the way they want it but watch out for your old age. The world is a dangerous and evil place. The people who are shouting your praise today will be the same people singing your stupidity and arrogance

[CDZ from the Ministry]

Christie D'Zurilla here from the blog -- you all *do* know that Sandra Bullock kissing women at awards shows is a running joke of hers, right? Mocking others who did it in the past for shock value?

Just checking.

how can she get a divorce so quick. I had to wait 9 months so did everyone I know. For us its a state law. How come not for her. How come rich famous people have different laws

[Big Momma]

I was devestated by Jesse James behavior I can only imagine the pain that Sandra may have felt.

Sandra hopefully will learn that a husband is not a child . Men never have sex with their mother.

If you find the love life is lacking ...stop playing the mother's role. Adult men will act like little children ... adultry is one of their games . If you have an adult male that is having affairs you may have a relationship of a "Big Momma and an adult child".

Stop plaing big momma ...even if it is a loving caring relationship...
your husband will act like a an immature child. ... and that is painful.
you both need to grow up !!

Takes two to tango .....

[Estela Perez]

Ms. Mary Beth,respectively i ask you, why is it alright for a man to have an affair,one night stand ,whatever you would like to call it..think all he has to do is say he has issues and needs or will do therapy AND THAT SHOULD BE THE END OF IT. But if a woman does it "All $@#!@#% breaks lose"?
As far as I am concerned he has commitment issues ,point and blank, therapy or no therapy...he'll should never be trusted by any DECENT woman again. Moving to Austin...huh,as if that'll make a difference to her.Bottom line , he should have never gone there and done that time and time again to this or any other Decent woman.

[CDZ from the Ministry]

@ellen -- Christie D'Zurilla here from the blog.

Texas law allows for divorces in as fast as 60 days, if both parties are in agreement with the terms of the split and don't drag it out. The laws vary by state.

I think is hilarious that this guy showed up at the NAACP image awards. Didn't him and his trash mistress indulge in some Nazism?

[Leslie]

Probably wouldn't be expected from a lesbian, femanist, liberal, however, I actually hope that they get back together. I honestly believe that they still love each other. Jess obviously has/had some kind of a problem. Unlike Woods, I do not believe that he is just an egomaniacal serial cheater.

[mona mona]

jesse james new what he was doing he was a married man yes if he did it once then sandra bullock would of work it out but three or four times,or maybe there is more who know only the LORD knows,if it happen to me yes i would let go too but if it happen to me ones i would work it out i been married for 38 years and i thank the lord everyday for my marriage and everyday i pray for my marriage too we all need prayer.May the lord bless sandra bullock with a good man.
