Christian Bale Arrest Update 2
More details are emerging about what really happened with Christian Bale and his mother. And like I said yesterday it's becoming more clear that he did nothing wrong.
Christian has been under an enormous amount of stress lately and his mother made horrible attacks at Christian about his wife. And he felt trapped in the hotel. He should have left, but with mobs of paparazzi outside, and the escalating situation inside, it was a lose lose situation for Bale.
Batman star Christian Bale confronted his mother after she allegedly insulted his wife, MailOnline has learned.
Sources close to the actor said he 'flew off the handle' at London's Dorchester hotel after Jenny Bale said 'some outrageous things'.
Yesterday, the Welsh-born actor was arrested and bailed over an assault claim, which he has denied.
However, a source close to the 34-year-old actor says Bale is confident he’s done nothing wrong, and blames his mother.
He is also said to have become depressed over the death of close friend and co-star Heath Ledger.
The source said: ‘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,’ the source said, adding: ‘Things got out of control and he now says he wishes he just left the room.
‘Normally Christian would just call a friend and go out to a pub to cool off. But he was literally trapped into this confrontation with his mother and sister because there was an army of fans and paparazzi outside.’
The incident apparently comes at a time when his marriage to Sandra 'Sibi' Blazic, a former model and make-up artist, is enduring difficulties.
'He has stresses in his marriage,' the source said. 'He can have a terrible temper. Instead of lashing out at his wife, he sometimes lashes out at people around him.'
The source added: ‘His marriage is not perfect, but his relationship with his mother is in much more trouble.
‘They're going to need a "cooling off" period because his mother said some pretty outrageous things to him that really set him off.
‘He regrets the way she treated him in their argument a lot more than having to talk to police about it. Christian has admitted that something just snapped, but he didn't threaten anyone with violence.
‘He's under a lot of pressure right now and simply got incredibly loud with members of his family around. I think his wife is going to be very important to him after all this is over because she does, at the end of the day, know how to calm him down.’
Bale's wife, who has been married to him for eight years, was by his side at the premiere of The Dark Knight, which was also attended by co-stars Sir Michael Caine, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Aaron Eckhart.
The source also claimed Bale had been deeply affected by the death of Ledger, who was found dead earlier this year from an overdose of anti-depressants and sleeping tablets.
'Without Ledger around, he's found it more and more difficult to communicate with those around him, especially his family.’
It was reported he found it hard to shake off the mental strains of the role, and told an interviewer he was having trouble sleeping.
The two actors, known for being intense about their craft, formed a friendship when they both played Bob Dylan in the 2007 movie I’m Not There.
A friend said: 'Christian pretends he's calm and collected but you really started to see the cracks in his façade in January, right after Heath Ledger had died.
'Christian was in the middle of a very brief break from work when he heard the news, and it was massive blow to him.
'They had become very close during the making of The Dark Knight and Christian went into virtual hiding for the six weeks after Heath was found dead.
‘He wasn't returning phone calls and he wasn't a happy man. It's foolish to think that he's been able to completely shake off that grief just as Heath and his work is finally being seen by audiences.
'He expected to share this moment with his friend, and now he can't.
In a recent interview, Bale admitted that he has been depressed and has experienced bouts of insomnia.

I find the whole thing incredibly sad. And the more I hear about it the more I am starting to really dislike his family. Whatever their beef is with Bale, they clearly rode him to this situation. And understanding the amount of pressure he is already under with his career, Heath Ledger, the premieres, and his wife (whom appears to be his rock), they go and pull a stunt like this. With the tabloids in a feeding frenzy labeling him as a woman beater, and looking for anything to pin this solely on him, his mother and his sister own him a big time apology. This sort of thing sits in the mindset of people.
They media is also anxious to pin him as some sort of angry guy who blows up all the time. He had an outburst on the set of Terminator Salvation because he thought a scene got fucked up. As an actor that sort of thing is incredibly frustrating. Especially for someone as intense as Bale. I don't know of one actor who hasn't been pissed off on the set of of a movie. Especially when you are working really hard and it wasn't you who screwed it up.
But of course that story about TS wouldn't have meant anything, but now they are trying so hard to paint Bale with a pattern of aggression.
Well of course there are some issues now. One of his closest and best friends has died. He can't share the moment with him. He has 20 projects going at one time, and he has his mother all over his ass about his wife.
Leave my "Imaginary Husband" alone people. Let him sort this out. His mother and his sister are acting like crazy bitches and only adding to this media frenzy.
Scandalous Candice = Team Bale... Still
