Alice Evans Ioan Gruffudd

Is anyone following the story? Sorry for DF link. Sad for all involved

My first thought was “what a public airing of dirty laundry” to be honest.

I don't think it's any of my business.

Leave them be speculation can only cause hurt.

I don't doubt he'll have a younger girlfriend on his arms in a few weeks.

I think she seemed in shock and completely bewildered.

Is it our business? Unless one or other has been violent in which case it should be a police matter.

I thought you’d spelled ‘loves Gruffalo’ wrong

I think it's strange that she posted what she did, are people not allowed to fall out love? I've split with my DP of 15 years a few months ago, not because there was anything else but because the feelings were no longer there

Sounds exactly how my Mum reacted to her divorce. What a horrible shock, she has no idea why etc. She's a complete narcissist.

Doesnt feel like a very mature public statement.

‘Leaving his family’ is a bit of a dick remark - he’s leaving her, someone obviously needs to move out. Splitting with your partner and moving out doesn’t mean leaving or abandoning your family.

I think it's quite sad. Wasn't she the secret actress in the Guardian many years ago? I always felt it was a proper love match and they went through a lot with IVF. But I suspect he will have a younger model on his arm in a few weeks like they all do.

Those poor little girls, having to deal with the very public airing of dirty linen.
I followed her on Insta and thought she seemed high maintanence, and quite obsessive about her camera shy husband. He was obviously uncomfortable with so much personal aspects of his life being made public.

Why would you post this here? There's a sleb gossip forum if you want to pore over other people's dirty laundry.

I think she will regret that strange announcement in time.

Met someone else. Using the "it's not you it's me" severance line. Standard. No wonder she's all over the place. Many of us have been there and I do not judge her.

I was in school with Ioan.

He was always a nice bloke, very unassuming. Quite sad, that story. I hope he doesn't just acquire a younger model.

I thought this was a total cringe to read tbh.

Smacks of Alice trying to get her version of the truth out asap and cast Ioan in a bad light before he can address the split himself. Whether he deserves that bad light or not, the tweet was a bad idea and she would have been better off venting to people in real life. Especially as her kids are old enough to see it and all the subsequent news articles about it. And this thread!

Now both of them will be relentlessly stalked by the media until they can get some dirt on what's happened.

I think it’s really sad they seemed such a lovely couple

Really feel for her. She is obviously very shocked and upset. I wouldn't use sm myself like this but some do and she is probably not thinking rationally any way.

I have never heard of either of them and really couldn't be less interested. Some people are massive attention seekers, which probably means, in real life, that they are pretty underwhelming.

She needs to step away from social media and not embarrass herself or her kids

It's sort of proof if anyone doubted it that public social media is the ultimate nonsense because even the most fame-hungry celebrity is going to want privacy sometimes.

I don't accept that celebrities have to have a Twitter/Insta profile to survive.

He isn't leaving "the family", he is splitting with her. That doesn't mean he isn't still the girls' family. The fact that those words came out of her mouth speaks volumes and she it strikes me that she can't have been easy to live with. Plus, the airing dirty laundry in public. So upsetting for the DC to do it that way.

I think he might be leaving the family. When my father left my mother he also left us children in an all but weekly Sunday afternoon contact visit behind.

I feel really bad for her. She’s probably distraught and has done something quite cringe making she’ll probably be horribly embarrassed about in the future.

Given that she had made comments about gaslighting, mental torture, and harassment I would guess there is probably a lot more to the story than what little has been made public. She has also stated that he accessed her SM and deleted her posts.
