Despite rumors that his marriage to Sandra Blazic is on the
rocks, Christian Bale appeared at the Dark Knight’s Spanish premiere
accompanied by his smiling wife.
He looked relaxed and signed autographs for about half an
hour at the Barcelona gala, but refused to give any information about his
recent “assault” in London against his mother and sister.
The 34-year-old actor, who is usually very discreet about
his private life, was the center of attention these days, after he was put
under arrest Tuesday by London police officers, for assaulting the two members
of his family.
Bale denied the allegations and was released on bail after
spending four hours at a London police station.
The actor blamed his mother of insulting his wife, but he
reportedly wishes to have left the room at the moment, instead of making a
scene. According to Mail
Online, sources close to him said that his mother became “very provocative
in an argument they were having.” They also said that, also he was much
“stressed,” Bale “didn’t lay a finger on anyone.”
The incident uncovered other stories about Christian Bale
and his hot temper. He apparently got upset on a number of film sets, but it is
only because he wants everything to be perfectly done, he explained.
There are also claims that a reason for Bale’s behavior
would be the death of Heath Ledger, which deeply affected the main Batman star.
Bale befriended Ledger when they both played Bob Dylan in
the 2007 movie “I’m Not There,” and the two were very close since then. Bale’s
friends say Ledger’s death was a “massive blow” for him.
In a recent interview, Bale admitted he suffered from
depression and insomnia from time to time, but, mysterious as always, he
refused to comment on the possible causes of his condition.
At the “Knight’s” Spanish premiere, he also chose to speak
to reporters only about the film. He was
smiling while waiting for the movie to be screened.
“The Dark Knight” has earned more than $200 million in its
first week of release in North America, making more money than the previous
Batman sequel grossed at the box office during its entire four-month run.
