Sandra Block, returning with the movie 'Practical Magic: New Chapter', revealed an extraordinary method she used to take her newborn out of the house while evading paparazzi when her husband's affair became public knowledge 16 years ago.

Block recently held a conversation with the American magazine 'Interview'. The interviewer was her longtime friend, actress Jennifer Aniston.

In their conversation, Block reflected on the most difficult period of her life. In particular, she spoke about her divorce from husband Jesse James in 2010.

Block divorced James in 2010. At that time, news of James's multiple affairs with various women broke one after another, causing a major stir.

At that time, Block had a newborn son named Louis. She began divorce proceedings shortly after bringing her son home in January 2010.

The bigger problem was the paparazzi. Block worried that paparazzi would swarm to her house while no one knew she had a newborn baby. She eventually decided she had to leave the house.

At that time, the method Block came up with was a hockey bag. She placed her son's car seat directly inside the hockey bag and zipped it closed. Then, acting as if she were simply carrying an ordinary hockey bag, she moved her son to the car.

While telling this story, he also joked, "I hope Child Protective Services doesn't come looking for me (because of this confession)."

The experience at that time was also a moment when Block realized how vulnerable a celebrity's privacy can be.

He said, "You have to move like the CIA." If someone close to you tries to harm you, privacy is no longer just privacy but information that can be monetized. Block also revealed, "Such things happened very recently, and it hurt my heart."

The 2013 movie 'Gravity' also remains special for him. Block recalled, "'Gravity' was the most meaningful film in my life," adding, "It was when I was going through a really dark period." He continued, "When you are alone in a box where you cannot talk to anyone for nine hours, you think a lot."

After that, another great parting came into Block's life. After divorcing Jesse James, he lived with photographer Brian Randall as family for a long time after meeting him in 2015, but Randall passed away at the age of 57 in May 2023 after battling ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis).

Having gone through difficult times in his life, Block has now appeared before audiences again.

Although Block was rarely seen on screen for a while after 'The Lost City' in 2022, he reunited with Nicole Kidman in the movie 'Practical Magic 2'.

Released in 1998, 'Practical Magic' did not receive great acclaim at the time but gradually secured a fervent fan base centered on female audiences. In this interview, Block said that people rediscovered the film through social media and saw mothers watching it with their daughters, giving the work new life.

'Practical Magic 2' holds more than just the meaning of a simple sequel for Block. He described this movie as a 'love letter' sent to his daughter.

Sandra Block, who once had to hide her newborn in a hockey bag to evade paparazzi, has returned to the screen after passing through the most difficult period of his life 16 years later. The movie 'Practical Magic 2' was released domestically last week and is currently showing.
