Known for roles in hit films such as “Fantastic Four” and “Titanic”, actor Ioan Gruffudd, 48, has filed a restraining order against his ex-wife, the actress of “Lost” and “The A Vampire” Alice Evans, 53.
According to Page Six, the actor tries to prevent Evans from having any contact and from getting within 100 meters of him and his girlfriend, actress Bianca Wallace. According to documents obtained by the site, Gruffudd says Alice “repeatedly told me between August 2020 and our separation on January 1, 2021 that if I left her, she would make false public accusations about me, sell false stories about me to the press and it would destroy me”.
He also claims that Alice has even threatened to tell people that he had abused her and her daughters and would have threatened to call the police if he did not comply with her demands.
“Threatened to tell people I’m a drug addict and put me in prison, write a fake diary that reflected an abused victim, and destroy my mother,” he continues in the document.
In Evans’ response to the petition, she denies all threats and says the last contact she had with her ex-husband was in October 2021 by phone. She also says that the actor is only doing this to get some sort of advantage in the divorce proceedings.
In November 2021, the actress cried a lot when remembering the separation from actor Ioan Gruffudd. She has made a number of statements about the former relationship.
“We’d been together for 20 years and I was like that Bridget Jones quote: ‘smug married’. These are things people go through like the loss of a parent, or infertility, you don’t know what it’s like until it happens to you. “, he said about the separation in the program of the presenter Lorraine Kelly.
“I thought this would never happen to me. He told me ‘I don’t love you anymore'”, recalled the actress, moved. “I’m not questioning his right to feel that, I’m not criticizing him, but he was so hostile, and then for about four months we were still here, and he kept saying he was sorry,” she recalled.
“I was freaking out. Then I tweeted that he was leaving us and things got out of hand,” Evans said, referring to the tweet in which he said the actor was leaving his family without giving any explanation in January.
The actress said that Gruffudd and she currently only speak through lawyers and that the problem between them began when the actor returned from filming in Australia. “We were very happy for him to go to another country and today I feel like a big idiot. He came back, hugged me, hugged the girls, gave me a dry kiss on the cheek and I saw that something was wrong”, she described.
The now ex-couple started dating backstage in the feature film “102 Dalmatians” (2000), they got married in 2007 and the relationship came to an end in early 2021. Together they had two daughters: Ella, 12, and Elsie, 8. .
