Headlines & Rumors

Batman star Christian Bale asked for privacy Thursday in his first comments since allegations he assaulted his mother and sister at a London hotel, saying the incident was a “deeply personal matter.”

The Welsh-born actor brushed off questions about the alleged family dispute, saying he preferred to focus on the blockbuster movie “The Dark Knight” which opened in Spain on Wednesday.

“It’s a deeply personal matter,” Bale told a press conference at a luxury hotel in this northern Spanish city. “I would ask you to respect my privacy in the matter.”

The 34-year-old actor spent four hours talking to British police Tuesday following allegations he assaulted his mother and one of his three sisters in his suite at London’s Dorchester Hotel two days earlier. He was released on bail, but not charged.

Bale has said through his lawyers that the assault allegations were false.

British media reported that Bale’s mother and sister told police he assaulted them at the hotel a day before attending the European premiere of “The Dark Knight.” The Sun newspaper said the complaint was filed by sister Sharon Bale and mother Jenny Bale.

The drama unfolded even as the movie broke records and was met with critical acclaim. It set a box-office record with $158.4 million during its opening weekend in the U.S. last week, and is expected to do well in Europe.

The film, which stars Bale as Batman and the late Heath Ledger as the superhero’s nemesis The Joker, opened in Barcelona at a glittery premiere Wednesday night. Thousands of fans lined the red carpet for a peek at the stars.

The movie is expected to do well in Spain thanks in part to the publicity that Bale’s reported arrest and Ledger’s untimely death in January had spawned, press reports said.

Yeah, that’s like Eminem too. He (Eminem) said that he didn’t know how many cousins he had until he got famous. Poor Christian Bale, probably came from the England’s version of white trash. What makes them (the mother and sister) thinks that it is Christian’s responsibility to raise other people ’s children. Morons. Glad that Christian came out different. People that stupid should be dumped into the Bermuda Triangle.

I hope Christian cuts them out of he and his family’s life. People like that are cancers. All he needs to do is cut them out once and for all.

What happen to personal responsibilities people!! What happen to raising your kids as your responsibillities instead burdening your relative. People like that are all to familiar to me.

A Scenario:
Mom and Sister never supported Christian, maybe treat him as an outsider. Mom makes nasty remark about Christian’s wife (a fact), so Christian walks away. Christians then gets famous for his spectacular acting skills, gets paid rightly for his movies and NOW mom and sister wants money to “help support sister’s three kids”? Sounds all too familiar.

You only know who people really are when money comes into play.

We cant go double guessing everything, and believing every thing we read. Maybe no-one is really to blame for any of it and we are painting Mr Bales family in a very dim light!…Let the dust settle and the truth will come out! If his sister and mum where as money crazed and ‘white trash’ as you have said they would have sold their story a long time ago!
