The 53-year-old automotive mechanic and television personality, Jesse James in a 2017 interview with DailyBeast opened up about many events in his life including the reason behind cheating on his ex-wife Sandra Bullock.

He shared how several factors influenced his actions.

“I think it was several factors: ego, loneliness, distrust, which probably led to resentment. When you have a certain amount of shame and guilt in your life that spurs from other stuff, you can manufacture resentment in any situation.”

He continued,

“I’m not getting the attention I need or the love that I need, when all I had to do was ask for it and she would give it to me. But just because I didn’t get it when I didn’t ask for it, I was like, “Oh, she doesn’t love me.”

The duo got married in 2005 however things took a bizarre turn when her best year, 2010 turned out to be her nightmare when they decided to call it quits. It was later revealed that the reason behind their separation was James being unfaithful to her with multiple women.

The Monster Garage host released a memoir titled American Outlaw back at the time in which he opened up about his relationship with the star. Mentioning that he felt trapped in being with the Gravity star, he gave further insight in the interview.

He shared that he “had to conduct myself a certain way” mentally while he was with the actress.

He continued,

“I’m a beer drinker/biker/don’t have a problem punching someone, but all that ended. I couldn’t do anything to bring any kind of embarrassment. It was a very controlled way of living, and I don’t think it was very healthy.”

Even though he knew that Bullock was not the one who made him think that way but he felt like he had to alter his lifestyle so that he could adapt to the one the actress was living in. While his way of living never changed as he was deemed a cheater during his relationship with Bonnie Rotten whom he married last year. Meanwhile, the Ocean’s 8 star is focusing on her family.
