His spokesperson released a statement saying the "American Psycho" star is relieved the situation is behind him.

I'll bet he is!

"Contrary to various press reports, Mr. Bale has not been cautioned or charged at all," his spokesperson Jennifer Allen says. "Mr. Bale considers this to be a deeply personal matter and would ask that the media respect both his and his family's privacy. At this time there will be no further comment by Mr. Bale."

ET.com posted this statement from a Crown Prosecution Service spokesman:"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.

"Whilst the CPS treats all incidents which take place in a domestic context seriously, it is important that the views of complainants are also taken into account when making decisions in such cases.

"Taking all the factors into consideration, the decision has been taken that there is insufficient evidence to afford a realistic prospect of conviction.
