Christian Bale

Christian Bale demands privacy

The Dark Knight actor — who is accused of “pushing and shoving” his mother Jenny and sister Sharon at his hotel suite in London last week — wants to focus on promoting new movie The Dark Knight, rather than discuss his personal life. He said: “It’s a deeply personal matter. I would ask that people respect my privacy in the matter.” Christian was questioned for four hours by London police before being released on bail without charge. The 34-year-old actor insists the allegations are false. It has been claimed he flew into a rage after Jenny, 61, and 41-year-old Sharon asked him for £100,000 to help raise Sharon’s three daughters. Jenny is also believed to have aggravated the star after making insulting comments.
