Christian Bale praises his wife for her patience

Washington (ANI): 'The Dark Knight' star Christian Bale has nothing but praise for his wife Sibi, especially when it comes to her taking his intense mood swings in her stride. Bale, 35, who insists the former model 'doesn't take any nonsense', had made headlines earlier this year when a tape of him ranting at a production worker on his 'Terminator Salvation' movie was leaked on the Internet.

The actor put down his foul-mouthed outburst to the acting techniques he uses to stir his emotions for intense scenes, and admits that his dedication to his work is often carried home with him. “My attitude does change at home, depending on which character I'm playing, but Sibi likes that. She thinks it's quite cool," Contactmusic quoted him as saying.

“You can look at it in two ways. You can think, That poor woman, forced to put up with that. Or What an incredibly lucky woman, who gets to be with all these different guys all the time. I have a very strong wife. She's incredibly strong and feisty, she doesn't take any nonsense and I love it!" he added.
