Page 25 | Team Ioan Gruffudd or Alice Evans?

BabyBearRus · 2021-10-29T23:47:05+00:00

I've been following the story around the breakup of Ioan and Alice. I haven't been a great fan of Alice in the past, but I do feel for her and her children right now. Who else thinks that Ioan has behaved atrociously to his family? According to his wife, he has been having an affair for a long while, and making her feel as though she was in the wrong for months.

I mean August 2018

@AdobeWanKenobi why are you trying to reignite this?

Can we go back to the point of the thread again please?

BarefootHippieChick · 06/11/2021 11:22

Alice constantly posting things like slut and hoe on Instagram is doing her no favours. And teaching her daughters that it's perfectly acceptable to call other women such derogatory terms

I can reply to anyone on any thread thanks. Last time I checked you were not a MN Mod so do kindly take your wannabe thread policing out on someone else eh?

BarefootHippieChick · 06/11/2021 11:24

I feel very sorry for Alice Evans given how happy they seem to have been up to that point.

Pictures on social media prove absolutely nothing about what's really happening in a relationship. If he was so happy he wouldn't have left.

oh, and FYI, quoting a post thats less than 24 hours old, and barely 20 posts up is hardly 'reigniting'. HTH.

@DifferentHair

I think he'd be attracting less criticism if he'd had entered into a relationship with someone closer to his age, and not very much his junior at work. And then not put it on instagram with a backhanded caption towards his former wife.

I was originally team Alice as well but she is losing me with all the posting. It seems as though, even on her telling, that there had been a lot of problems in in the marriage for a long time. I don't think he owes it to anyone to stay in a miserable marriage, but to do it by going abroad for work and hooking up with a much younger extra who is probably enamoured with him because he is the star is kinda gross.

All of this; well said.

ChequerBoard · 06/11/2021 11:31

@AdobeWanKenobi not sure why you needed to rely to me twice,

The thread has been derailed for some time with personal barbs between two groups of posters and had in the last few posts just got back to the actual subject of the thread.

Personally, I'm more interested in discussing the topic of the thread than joining in an increasing nasty pile-on from one side or the other. But hey, if personal attacks are your thing and give you some form of personal satisfaction, crack on. You clearly have some anger issues to work out.

If you have a complaint please take it to the moderators.

I replied to you twice because I wanted to go back and check that the post I was 'reigniting' was as recent as I thought. Again, no rules here to state I can only reply once on any given thread.
Funny thing is, people aren't reading threads 24/7 and come on here when they get a chance. They then read and reply from where they have bookmarked threads previously. Thats how forums work.

I don't have anger issues, far from it. I also don't have control issues either, but if that cap fits you, you wear it 😉

Yes but I mean you can quite clearly see the difference between his happy and unhappy times documented on Alice Evans' Instagram and I am talking about three years ago not last year. He is happy to have his photos taken and put on Instagram in the April of 2019. Not so happy in 2020.

Not to derail the thread but please get your facts right - the personal barbs were directed at sunglasses and were getting rather nasty - sunglasses pushed back and myself and another poster supported her.

@ChequerBoard

Why don’t you apply to become a moderator?

Until then, please stop trying to supervise threads.

Also, can you not resort to making derogatory comments and aspersions on other posters’ mental health?

It’s almost identical to how Bluntness100 has been interacting with people…

Ok this is beyond tedious now.

I have not made any derogatory comments about any posters mental health.

I'm off to post on threads that are actually discussing a topic rather than just bitching at each other.

👋🏻

AllTheUsernamesAreAlreadyTaken · 06/11/2021 15:23

@ChequerBoard

But you’re doing so well at leading the “bitching”
You clearly have some anger issues to work out.

Sundancerintherain · 06/11/2021 15:27

For gods sake can the slanging match between posters be moved so those of us actually wanting to follow the thread can.

100 percent this. Its becoming really tedious

Back to the topic-

It's interesting to me to reflect on the central role that social media plays in relationships now. It's how a lot of people get together, it documents their happiness, it's their battleground, it's a mirror, and for actors it's very much part of how they market themselves and build their financial value.

If the new girlfriend was a dentist or something, surely she'd have put her instagram on private and tried to lay low during a media storm. Instead she's obliging the daily mail by posting bikini pictures. For an unknown aspiring actress, this is bankable.

I don't think she has been posting anything new. The media are mining her social
Media for pictures from before they announced their relationship.

TheSunnySide wow those posts by his new squeeze to Alice's account as far back as 2018 are soooo suspicious. Either they were already an item, or Bianca had Ioan seriously in her sights. Whatever, it gives me the creeps. Poor Alice. Still on her team.

Who the hell comments on posts of the wife of someone you're working with (apparently never met his wife). Very odd IMO

Alice has without a doubt in my mind been betrayed by her husband and I agree with @BabyBearRus

Upyouranty · 07/11/2021 09:02

Bianca is no catch but then neither is Ioan, so perhaps they will both get what they each deserves.

I want Alice to move on from this stage of grief.
Put the phone down. Get on the treadmill. Get to work. Put the bottle down.
