The Killing Joke goes into the the Joker's backstory (gorgeous comic, well worth picking up).

Basically, he'd been a worker at a chemical plant, then he quit to become a stand up comic, but he was lousy at it. At the same time, his wife got pregnant. When you see them, she's fairly far along, five or six months, I think. He's wracked with guilt and self-doubt about the choices he's made following his dreams, and she's this warm, supporting force in his life that anchors him. Everything he's doing, he's doing for her sake and the baby's.
Including getting involved in a heist at the chemical plant he used to work at. The night it's supposed to happen, he's with the two thugs who talked him into it, at a bar, waiting for the right time, when two cops come to the bar looking for him, to tell him that his pregnant wife just died in a freak accident with an electrical short in a household appliance. He's crushed, and the thugs make him do the job anyway, Batman shows up, things go south, he jumps into a chemical vat to get away from Batman...

and the rest is history.

It's implied in Hush2 that she may've actually been murdered. It's less about what happened to her and more about what she meant to him.


That aside, as sexy as Heath!Joker is, I could never imagine him as a sexual being. He's just too weird, too other. If Nolan!Batman wasn't staying on the realistic side of things, I'd swear up and down that he's not actually human anymore, just a physical vessel for sheer chaos.
