Christian Bale and His Kids Make Rare Public Appearance
Originally appeared on E! Online
The dark knight rises, and so does Christian Bale for his family.
The Oscar winner made a rare outing with wife Sibi Blazic to catch their 20-year-old daughter Luka Bale walk in Dolce & Gabbana's Alta Moda fashion show in Rome July 14.
Dressed in an all-black suit, Bale arrived to the event holding hands with Blazic, who he married in 2000. Meanwhile, their 11-year-old son Rex Bale—also dressed in a dark suit with a matching shirt—followed closely behind.
The family of four went on to snap a group photo—published by Just Jared—with designer Domenico Dolce, who was also seen clad in black with his signature wide-rimmed glasses.
And it's not often that Bale is out at a public event with his children. After all, the 51-year-old is notoriously private about his brood—with many fans mistakenly believing that his son was named Joseph for years.
Instead, the tween was credited as "Rex Bale" for his cameo in his dad's 2022 Marvel movie Thor: Love and Thunder.
Likewise, the public only found out about Luka's name when she was credited as such in Bale's 2016 racing film Ford v Ferrari. She also made a brief appearance in Thor: Love and Thunder, before making her modeling debut with Dolce & Gabbana in 2021.
"She's a little rascal," Bale said of his daughter in a 2012 interview with British GQ. "I'm not going to miss her growing up for anything, not even for Batman."
The Dark Knight alum added, "I'm certainly not going to be one of those fathers who picks up a photo of his daughter and has regrets about not being around."
