Christian Bale has been released on bail following assault accusations made by his mother and sister.

Christian Bale released on bail

‘The Dark Knight’ star voluntarily went to be interviewed in response to allegations apparently lodged by his mother Jenny
and sister Sharon.
Bale, who denies the charges, was questioned for four hours and required to
supply his fingerprints, DNA saliva sample and a photograph.
He was then released on bail without charge, but must report back to police
in September.
An altercation between the Batman star and members of his family reportedly
took place in Bale’s suite at London’s Dorchester
Hotel.
Bale’s mother Jenny, 61, and sister Sharon, 40, promptly checked out of the
hotel and returned to Dorset in Southern England.
Details of the assault are not known but it is believed Jenny claims she was
pushed over during the argument.
Jenny said yesterday: “Yes there was a family situation but the police are
handling it and I cannot say any more at the moment. We didn't call the
police to the scene. I can't say any more but we didn't call the police.”
It has now been claimed Bale lost his temper because Jenny insulted his wife
Sibi Blazic.
A source told the MailOnline website: “Christian was stressed, but he didn’t
lay a finger on anyone. Instead, he flew off the handle and cussed his
mother. He just got very loud because his mother was saying some very
outrageous things about him, and his wife.
“Christian's attitude is that this was his mother's fault because she became
very provocative in an argument they were having. Things got out of control
and he now says he wishes he just left the room.”
Bale is said to be suffering problems in his marriage to Sibi and has been
depressed following the death of his ‘The Dark Knight’ co-star Heath Ledger
in January.
A source said: “He has stresses in his marriage. He can have a terrible
temper. Instead of lashing out at his wife, he sometimes lashes out at
people around him. Without Ledger around he's found it more and more
difficult to communicate with those around him, especially his family.”
