Christian Bale has reportedly ended his decade-long feud with his family.
The actor, 45, was accused of assaulting his mother Jenny and his sister Sharon at his Dorchester hotel suite before the premiere of his film The Dark Knight in 2008, but the charges were dropped due to insufficient evidence and they subsequently withdrew their statements.
The Hollywood star - who has always strenuously denied the allegations - cut ties with his loved ones in the aftermath of the incident, thought to have been caused by an argument over his wife Sibi Blazic.

However, it seems things have finally thawed between Christian and his family.
His mother Jenny told the Daily Mirror they were back in touch, saying: 'Yes, we are talking. I know Christian is in London.'
Christian, who was born in Wales and grew up in England, was in the city to attend the EE BAFTAs on Sunday evening, missing out on the Best Actor prize for his role as Dick Cheney in political biopic Vice.
The star has until now resisted making amends with his family, despite mum Jenny saying in 2014 she had tried to contact him 'nearly every day'.
She said at the time: ''It would be lovely if we could meet up. The ball is in his court. Six years is long enough. It’s sad for me. It’s sad for him, too.'

Bale, who has always denied the allegations from July of 2008, was cleared of charges due to 'insufficient evidence' in August of that year.
Bale was accused of lashing out at his mother, Jenny, and sister, Sharon, in front of Sharon's children in his suite at the Dorchester hotel, in Park Lane on July 21, 2008.
The following day, the mother and sister decided to go to a police station in Hampshire and make a complaint of assault.
Sharon told her friend: ‘I asked them to talk to Christian before he left as we felt his verbal and physical actions – especially in front of three children under the age of 12 – and no show of remorse afterwards needed to be pointed out to him as wrong.’
The mother and sister did not elaborate on exactly what the physical actions entailed.

Bale voluntarily reported to Belgravia police station in London the following day to give his version of events and was released without charge. Sharon and her mother withdrew their statements two days after the incident.
At the time, Bale asked for privacy on the 'deeply personal matter.'
On August 14, 2008, a Crown Prosecution Service spokesperson said: 'We can today confirm that we have advised the Metropolitan Police Service that the actor Christian Bale should not face any charges following an incident which occurred in relation to his mother and sister at the Dorchester hotel on 21 July this year.'
DailyMail previously reported the that confrontation that night stemmed from his mother allegedly hanging up the phone on Bale's wife, Sibi.
Christian and former model Sibi have been married since 2000 and have children Emmaline, 13, and Joseph, four, together.

At the time, sources close to the actor told MailOnline he 'flew off the handle' at after Jenny Bale said 'some outrageous things' about his wife.
He was also said to have been depressed over the death of close friend and co-star Heath Ledger.
The source claimed: ‘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.’
MailOnline has contacted Christian's representatives for comment.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
