This poor woman is clearly in the middle of the most horrendous breakdown - who the fuck thought this interview was a good idea?

@bigbeatmanifesto

The stories I've read on here of men making out their ex wives are crazy on the verge of psychotic makes me believe there's alot more to her story and she's not as nuts as everyone wants her to be, so she's doing it in the open air of social media? That's just the way things are now people tell the world their grievances wether for sympathy or clarity she's getting it off her chest, if it was hidden away and she came forward years later people would call her a liar for not saying anything sooner, you can't win anymore. No I'm not defending her I'm just saying no one knows what goes on behind closed doors and all that.

I mean, her own ramblings paint a different picture… He’s also never said she’s crazy or whatever. He’s said nothing. Dignified silence against what seem to be alcohol driven ramblings of ever changing stories. She is not well. People need to stop encouraging this nonsense and realise that. She loves her kids and she will lose them through her own actions, not his, if she continues. Her ‘supporters’ should remember that.

Onthedunes · 19/11/2021 01:20

@CatNameChange101

Why where would her kids go if they were taken off her.

With Ioan, he's hardly going to want to be based in one place due to his job, they need stability in one place.

I also can't see them wanting to live with him with a new girlfriend trotting arround the place.

Not practical, you treat your wife with respect and kindness so your children have the best chance of being brought up with an able, happy parent who has at least some peace of mind.

Saying that, she probably needs a break, must have been hard on her own.

whenthedoveslie · 19/11/2021 04:39

Oh I'd thought she'd turned over a new leaf

All the nastiness aside - and yes there is a lot of it, I can't help but feel sorry for her and feel the silent treatment he has dished out has driven her quite mad, literally.

Againstmachine · 19/11/2021 07:14

*Am I ?

So everyone who is supporting Ioan on here knows exactly whats gone on in their marriage.*

Nope no one knows what went off in their marriage but you were the one who posted he abandoned and cheated with zero evidence, apart from the rantings of Alice who isn't reliable at all.

She is calling a woman she doesn't know vile things like slut ect, she isn't the champion for women you believe she is.

In your eyes if this was other way round Ioan would still be the bad guy you are painting him as.

Bluntness100 · 19/11/2021 07:20

Well Alice’s twitter has been cleaned up properly.

It’s very odd how she posts all this stuff and then deletes it. Must take her ages. She’s obviously getting legal advice or advice from somewhere.

Well yesterday she was posting there was no silent treatment, she even wrote that on New Year’s Day they were shagging, even though the divorce papers say they split thay day and he’s been secretly in contact with her and sending her flowers, stringing her along they’d get back together which is why the bianca thing was such a shock.

Clearly it’s all nonsense, but that’s indeed what she wrote. It’s all so messed up there is nothing you can really take as the truth. Other than I think the fact he’s going after full custody and saying she’s an unfit parent and committing parental alienation, that she’s stuck to.

Newrunner29 · 19/11/2021 07:46

Its so bizarre onthedunes u r only hearing one side of a very bias (understandably to a point) and your writing it as fact, why are you doing that?

Cocolapew · 19/11/2021 08:12

The way she has reacted to the clip from the Kyle and Jackie O radio show clip is a bit odd imo.
They are talking about Alice and saying she told her daughter about the divorce by showing her a headline in a news paper that Ioan wanted to a divorce and she began screaming and shouting my Daddy would never do that.
The radio hosts get a bit emotional about this, obviously feeling for the daughter
But this is Alices reply, and she's going on the show, if that's what she really did (and she's not disputing it) she should be embarrassed not posting love hearts

WalkersAreNotTheOnlyCrisps · 19/11/2021 08:18

I was baffled at that Cocolapew, they seemed to be taking the mickey a little bit, certainly their emotional response seemed to be for the little girl and not Alice.

LizzieSiddal · 19/11/2021 08:31

She has probably only read the headline and assumed it was positive towards her.

whenthedoveslie · 19/11/2021 08:33

@Bluntness100, ah ok. I hadn't read any of that. I was going on the Lorraine interview this thread led me to look up.

Agree things look a lot saner today. Someone has got through for sure.

May it last for her sake!

Oh goodness, she really doesn't read the room at all does she

Nicknacky · 19/11/2021 08:46

@whenthedoveslie He does try and communicate the the Wizard app, however she refuses to do that. I can’t blame him for not speaking to her by text or email, can you imagine the grief he must get?

Cocolapew · 19/11/2021 08:47

She really doesn't CrazyTimes🤷

The silent treatment can only be a response to the documented fact she started talking to the papers and posting on social media when he told her he was leaving.

Her posts about him and his parents (targeted before she knew about BW) were abusive. That’s why he shouldn’t and isn’t speaking to her directly. It’s not silent treatment it grey rock. Which is the advice anyone would get if they were at the wrong end of harassment and abuse.

Would you tell your child they had to talk to their bully? Would you tell a women being harassed by her ex, that she deserves it because she won’t sit down for a chat?

Abusers often use the woe is me tactic to recruit flying monkeys.which puts people in danger.

So very true. It is easy to fall for her sense of despair I guess. I have been there, albeit quietly.

Glassofshloer · 19/11/2021 09:24

@Onthedunes …or husband? Would you be reacting in exactly this manner were their roles reversed in this?

Againstmachine · 19/11/2021 09:30

If you look back through her tweets she used that a lot before the split with Ioan.

LizzieSiddal · 19/11/2021 09:34

Omg that tweet you’ve posted Cocolapew.

I can’t believe anyone would say that to a child. Either he is a complete scum bag or she is.

Iamdobby63 · 19/11/2021 09:45

Well that’s a nicely cleaned up Twitter feed.

BringMeTea · 19/11/2021 10:06

Good. Let's hope the poor sick woman gets the help she so clearly needs.

IndecentCakes · 19/11/2021 10:15

That's a completely different version of the story re: her daughter. First version was the child saying 'If I do everything he says will he come home?' Not the father.
Seems odd.

Butchyrestingface · 19/11/2021 13:17

I don’t know what other people are looking at but today’s Twitter batshittery levels look as high as ever to me.

I also wouldn’t say her Insta posts are less hystrionic, just that she doesn’t post to that platform as frequently (praise Jesus). And the set up of the Insta platform doesn’t really lend itself to the same quick back and forths that you get with Twitter.
