Few celebrities come out the other end of a family scandal relatively unscathed. Christian Bale however has managed to accomplish just that. Quietly, with dignity, without sitting down opposite Barbara Walters wailing his balls off, or allowing his publicist to leak gratuitous stories in his favour.

Rather, Bale put his head down, set his jaw, and let the storm pass, even though the tabloid press was all over him for weeks, baiting him, questioning his on-set conduct, his relationship with his wife, Christian Bale kept his cool and now it’s blown over, with him on the right side completely exonerated.

All class. Pure sex.

This is Christian and his beloved Sibi after dinner this weekend at Hama Sushi in Venice Beach. He looks good in brown Lacoste, non?
