Christian Bale hasn't spoken to his family in a year and a half

You might recall that in July of 2008 Christian Bale had an argument with his mother and sister that ended with Christian being questioned by police. There was a lot of speculation as to what the fight was about, but it was never confirmed. In the end, Christian was cleared of all charges. Since the argument, it seems that Christian has cut his mother and sister from his life.

His mother Jenny says she has no idea as to why he has ignored all attempts she has made contact him since the argument on the night of the premiere of his movie ‘The Dark Knight’.

She said:

“He’s not talking to us, it’s not the other way round. He has changed his phone numbers, and he ignores the letters, emails and birthday cards I send. “As awful as that night was, and although I rack my mind every day about what could have made him behave like that, I’d happily forget it happened if we could go back to being a family. That’s the most important thing. We miss Christian terribly. But it’s been more than 18 months now and it’s hard to see how this will ever end.”

According to Jenny and her daughter Sharon, they are still unsure why Christian – who has a four-year-old daughter Emmeline with wife Sibi Blazic - “exploded with anger” and had them thrown out of his hotel shortly before the premiere.

“He just exploded with anger like I have never seen. He never gave us a chance to find out what it was all about before he frog-marched us out of his suite.”

His sister added:

He had his face to mine and he was bellowing and swearing about how I never called or emailed. His wife, who I have met a few times and always got on with, was standing across the room. I kept asking her, ‘Why is he doing this?’ but she just shrugged. I was shaking. It was so frightening. It didn’t make any sense. “It probably went on for about ten minutes before he physically marched us out of the room and into the lift.”

His mother says she now relies on the internet to keep up with her son’s life:

“I search for pictures of him on Google just to see how he is. Sometimes he’s pictured with his daughter, and I get to see how she’s growing. If I want to know what’s going on in his life, I have to read the headlines. What if something terrible happens and I have to find out about it in a newspaper? I’m his mum and he’s my little boy.”

It must have been a pretty intense argument to cause Christian to stop speaking to them completely. I’m sure their going to the media is not going to make him warm up and forgive the fight.
