Jesse James is claiming he lost himself in his years spent married to Sandra Bullock, the comedy sweetheart he humiliated publicly with numerous affairs.

The mechanic returned to reality TV on Monday night with Discovery channel’s auto-centric ‘American Chopper: The Build-Off,’ and mentioned the implosion of his personal life, sparking in 2010.

‘I became a big shot and married some Hollywood actress and didn’t talk to anybody anymore, so I feel bad,’ he said in a testimonial, ‘...I feel obligated to reconnect with all these people and show ‘em that I’m still the same fabricator motorcycle guy. I’m not what I became.’

And what became of Jesse? In 2010, Bullock cleaned up in award trophies for her turn in ‘The Blind Side,’ only to cap a lead actress Oscar win with the discovery of infidelities on James’ part — led by the charming Michelle ‘Bombshell’ McGee.

Bullock and James divorced almost immediately. A messy courtship with tattoo artist Kat Von D followed for James, though that suffered accusations of infidelity too.
