Batman star Christian Bale will face police questioning today over claims that he assaulted his mother and sister.

A complaint was lodged against the actor by mother Jenny, 61, and sister Sharon, 40, at a police station in Hampshire yesterday. They have alleged that Bale "lashed out" at them on Sunday night at central London's Dorchester Hotel.

Police decided to delay questioning until today because they did not want to spoil last night's Dark Knight premiere in the West End, one report suggests.

A source told The Sun: "It would have been wrong to wreck the premiere over a complaint which we do not yet know is founded in truth. Mr Bale will be contacted at the earliest opportunity and be asked to provide an account of what happened."

A Scotland Yard spokesperson said: "We can confirm that we have received an allegation from another force in relation to an incident in central London."

Estelle Getty has died at the age of 84.

The veteran actress - best known for her role as sarcastic Sicilian Sophia in sitcom The Golden Girls - was suffering from advanced dementia.

Her son Carl Gettleman confirmed that she died at around 5.30am PT (1.30pm UK) at her home in Hollywood, three days before her 85th birthday.

"She was loved throughout the world in six continents, and if they loved sitcoms in Antarctica she would have been loved on seven continents," Gettleman said in a statement. "She was one of the most talented comedic actresses who ever lived."

As well as her role in Golden Girls, which ran from 1985 to 1992, Getty appeared in Stop or My Mom Will Shoot alongside Sylvester Stallone, Mask, Stuart Little and Mannequin.


Aww, I remember her in Golden Girls (hilarious) and Stop or My Mom will shoot you. Shame she suffered from dementia. RIP Estelle x

Television star John Leslie will not face charges over the latest allegations against him of sex assaults, police said today.

The former Blue Peter presenter was arrested last month over two allegations of rape and indecent assault dating back to 1995.

Leslie, 43, was formally arrested after he attended Teddington police station by appointment in June.

He strenuously denied the allegation, claiming it was the 'mother of all stitch-ups'.

Today the Metropolitan Police said after taking advice from the Crown Prosecution Service they will not be taking any further action against him.

He had been questioned by Teddington detectives for three hours over claims by a 33-year-old woman that he raped her at his East Sheen home in 1995.

The woman made the allegation last September. They also took his fingerprints and a DNA swab.

Leslie's law firm released a statement on his behalf, saying he was 'delighted' and the complaint was 'ridiculous'.

It also said there was 'little justice and no fairness' in what Leslie and his family had been put through, having his name dragged through the mud once again.

The statement said: 'We have today been informed by the Metropolitan Police that the complaint against John Leslie has been dropped.

'Yet again, after a complete and thorough investigation, it has been confirmed that there is no truth or substance to the damaging allegations that were made against our client last month.

'He is of course delighted. The complaint was ridiculous, but yet again and for a second time his name has been dragged through the mud before the law has had a chance to confirm his innocence.

'The law confers a blanket of anonymity on complainants but the accused enjoys no such protection.

'Instead his reputation, his character, his career and his family are regarded as fair game by the media.

'There is little justice and no fairness in what our client and his family have been put through.'

Leslie was acquitted of two counts of indecent assault on a 23-year-old actress in 2003.

She came forward to police in 2002 after Leslie was sacked from This Morning following allegations arising from TV presenter Ulrika Jonsson's autobiography -although she had not named him.

In recent years, Leslie has pursued a career away from showbusiness as a property developer in Scotland.

He attended Teddington police station last month after the fresh allegation surfaced.

The next day he released a statement in which he condemned 'lies about my private life' and said: 'I certainly did not attack this person as I have never attacked anyone.'

Leslie said at the time: 'I was interviewed for 30 minutes and released on bail. Five years ago I helped the police complete a thorough investigation into malicious claims against me...

'Regrettably, as has happened in the past, the details of a private police inquiry have been leaked to the press and once again I face trial by media.

'It is thus with a mixture of anger and distress that I am forced to talk yet again about lies about my private life, lies that destroyed my public career.'

Leslie said: 'If I sound bitter, it is because I am.'

He said the lies 'that destroyed my public career in 2003... now threaten the private life which I have been happy to lead since then'.

He said: 'When, I ask, is this nightmare going to end? If it is considered acceptable to launch an investigation after 13 years, then why not 20 or 30 years?'

Miley Cyrus has claimed that she is single and "looking" for a boyfriend.

The actress, 15, who is currently shooting Hannah Montana: The Movie, denied rumours she was dating either boyband rocker Nick Jonas or co-star Lucas Till.

"It is hard when you are hanging out with guys, even guys that are just your friends," she told Today.

"[He's] automatically your boyfriend, because that's what the media thinks.

"I think it's good if you can be able to have guy and girl friends that, you know, understand you."

She added: "It stinks when we go out; people automatically think we're together."

Teen superstar Miley Cyrus is "super sorry" for a video on YouTube in which she and best friend Mandy Jiroux mock fellow Disney Channel stars Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato.

“I mean if we offended (Gomez and Lovato), we’re super sorry, but we were, like, just having fun,” Cyrus said in an interview with Popstar! magazine.

Cyrus and Jiroux's video copied an earlier YouTube video by Gomez and Lovato in a scene-by-scene parody.

“That’s our thing, to be funny,” she said. “They were being funny on their show, and (besides) Elvis says imitation is the greatest form of flattery, so we were, like, imitating them. You know, like, being funny.”

In the video, the singer and actress, 15, and Jiroux, a backup dancer, poke fun at Gomez showing off her Power Rangers T-shirt and laugh at Lovato fixing a gap in her teeth.

"I thought they digitally added that," said Gomez about the gap. In the video made by Cyrus and Jiroux, the "Hannah Montana" star mocks her, saying "I thought it was like digitizely put on in your piehole."

After Cyrus' controversial Vanity Fair photo shoot, some pegged Gomez, star of "The Wizards of Waverly Place," and Lovato, star of "Camp Rock," as wholesome role models who could take Cyrus' place.

Still, the "Hannah Montana" star told "Extra" that "I don’t think there could be a next Miley. I think they should be the next Selena, the next Demi ... [and] make their own way.”

Harry Potter star Emma Watson spurned the advances of three male admirers at a Windsor polo party, according to a report.

The 18-year-old actress, best known for her role as Hermione Granger in the movies, captured the attention of Francis Bouelle at the beginning of the bash. They chatted happily for a while, but it wasn't long until Emma was seen draping herself over a dark-haired man.

Later, Emma was chatted up by a third man, blond Michael Corker. However, all three of her fans were left disappointed when she went home with a female friend.

An onlooker told The Mirror: "It was very funny to see - she's clearly hard to get."

In April, Watson claimed that Potter fans are desperate for her to start dating co-star Daniel Radcliffe. She insisted that they are just friends.

Simon Cowell and Terri Seymour have allegedly ended their six-year relationship.

A report from Star magazine claims that Cowell dumped his TV presenter girlfriend following a row over starting a family.

"He told me he is tired of Terri's insecurities," a friend of Cowell is quoted as saying. "They lead separate lives, and that's how he likes it, but lately she has turned up unannounced at events he is at."

A source added: "Terri is worn down by Simon's attitude."

Cowell is believed to be holidaying at his St Tropez villa with friend Paul McKenna and ex-girlfriend Sinitta following his bust-up with Seymour.

The X Factor judge has repeatedly denied rumours that his relationship with Seymour is on the rocks.

Gordon Ramsay has been described as a "sad b*****d" by his former friend and protégé Marcus Wareing.

The pair have known each other for 15 years, but a row over the Petrus restaurant at the Berkeley Hotel in Knightsbridge has torn them apart in recent months.

Wareing is head chef at the restaurant, which is currently run by Gordon Ramsay Holdings, but will take over the lease in September after the hotel decided to end its association with Ramsay. Gordon's lawyers are attempting to challenge the move.

In an interview with Waitrose Food Illustrated, Wareing said that he is looking forward to breaking away from his former mentor. He also claimed that Ramsay is more interested in being a celebrity than a chef.

"If I never speak to that guy for the rest of my life, it wouldn't bother me one bit," Wareing insisted. "Wouldn't give a *******."

He continued: "Gordon's an important part of my life, although half of me thinks he's a sad b*****d and the other half still adores him. But Gordon is not really part of the industry now. He's a major celebrity."


Contradicting oneself in the last two paragraphs Marcus?
