Summary of Ioan Gruffudd's Amendment and Supplement to his Request for Domestic Violence Restraining Order
Given Alice's actions since the Temporary Restraining Order ("TRO") was issued, Ioan is amending and supplementing his TRO request and requesting that the following orders also be made by the judge at the August 2 hearing:
- That Alice shall not make any posts on any social media account, including Instagram and Twitter, disparaging or harassing Ioan or Bianca.
- That Alice shall not post Ioan's text messages or any other communications to their children, or the children's text messages or any other communications to Ioan, on any social media account, including Twitter and Instagram.
- That Alice is restrained from contacting Ioan's employers and/or making disparaging statements about Ioan to his employers.
Declaration of Ioan Gruffudd attached, which states that:
- Since the TRO was issued on February 15, 2022, Alice has used her social media accounts to threaten, harass, and disturb the peace of Ioan and Bianca, and to make disparaging statements about them. Alice has also made a number of social media posts in which she admits to knowingly and willingly violating the TRO. Exhibits showing this will be submitted at the August 2, 2022 hearing.
- Alice's social media accounts are generally public and both Ella and Elsie have access to Instagram and Twitter. One of their children follows Alice on Instagram.
- Alice posted private text messages exchanged between Ioan and Ella, age 12, on Instagram.
- Alice posted on Instagram on July 4, 2022, "Sorry - trying to do it all on NO money while the hub takes $10k first class tickets around the world with new GF to show her what a catch he is! Run, Bianca, Run!...He's spent all our savings. All our money for the kids, and STILL owes his lawyers around $400k. I have less than $2k to live on. My kids haven't been away since he left. Yes, fuck the TRO."
- On June 24, Alice posted on Instagram that Ioan was pursuing the TRO because he was a "colossal pussy" and "doesn't really want a divorce." Also addressed Ioan and Bianca directly in the post, calling Bianca "Binky" and saying that they could have been married a year ago if they both hadn't been obsessed with hating Alice. "Move on guys! You've ruined our lives! Me and the girls want to move on now and get you out of our vision."
- On March 14, 2022, Alice said it was a "TEMPORARY restraining order. The judge didn't even read it. You know EXACTLY why it's being extended. Because you guys suddenly realized that if we went to court on March 11th then I would get to tell my side of the story. You didn't want that. You wanted me gagged. I am no threat to you. You just wanted my 1st amendment rights taken away. And so far you have succeeded. You can't gag me forever though."
- Ioan believes that Alice has also used traditional media outlets to harass Ioan and Bianca since the TRO was issued.
Ioan has attached the Request for Domestic Violence Restraining Order and Request for Temporary Restraining Order that he filed previously as exhibits.
