Christian Bale’s career might have reached a new peak of success after picking up his Oscar this week, but his mother Jenny is still desperately trying to repair their broken relationship.

The actor, who won Best Supporting Actor for his role in The Fighter, hasn’t spoken to his mother in three years and as she watched her son accept his award from her home in Bournemouth, she was only able to email him ‘Well done, love mum X’, without receiving a reply.

Bale’s 63-year-old mother says Christian hasn’t sent her a response but said she hopes his Oscar can bring them closer together since a family feud tore them apart in 2008.

Jenny said: ‘I stayed up late to watch on TV. I was nodding off but had to stay awake to see my son’s big moment…. The family are so pleased for him. This Oscar is well deserved.’

Despite proudly watching her son alongside his wife Sibi on the small screen, Jenny says she cried as she saw other celebrities there with their mothers, while she hasn’t spoken to hers in years.

‘I’d love Christian to walk through the door right now. I’d give him a big hug and a kiss and we could forget about the last three years.’, she told The Sun.
