Jesse James, the spouse of actress Sandra Bullock, has made headlines yet again with the release of a photograph depicting him seemingly giving a Nazi salute.
The image, published by Us Weekly, shows James wearing what appears to be a Waffen-SS cap while performing the infamous “Heil, Hitler” gesture.
This revelation comes at a time when James is already dealing with the fallout from allegations of infidelity, which have led him to seek treatment at a rehab clinic.
According to reports, the controversial picture was taken in 2004.
It follows the emergence of another photograph featuring Michelle ‘Bombshell' McGee, who is said to be James's alleged mistress, donning a similar Nazi cap and a swastika armband.
While a source close to James claims that he is not a neo-Nazi, they explain that the pose was done “for shock value.”
The insider further clarifies that James is merely a history enthusiast, having had family discussions about the Holocaust due to his stepmother's connection to it.
In response to the accusations of infidelity, James initially released a statement denying most of the allegations and refusing to comment any further on the matter publicly.
However, he eventually took responsibility for his actions, expressing deep regret for the pain and humiliation he has caused his wife and children.
James hopes that, in time, they will find it in their hearts to forgive him.
Meanwhile, Bullock, who recently won the Best Actress Oscar for her performance in The Blind Side, acknowledged James during her emotional acceptance speech.
The couple married in 2005, and this scandal has undoubtedly put a strain on their relationship.
The publication of the ‘Nazi photo' has brought immense attention to James and has only added to the already tumultuous situation surrounding him.
As the public eagerly awaits further developments, it remains to be seen how this controversy will affect his personal and professional life moving forward.
