It's 3am in Cymru, I've had a little gwin gwyn, and I feel the need to comment.
I barely post on social media as:
(a) I can't be fucked with the bother
(b) I detest the look of myself so the whole 'selfie' thing is repulsive
(c) My life is not that interesting
That said, if your career is anything to do with entertainment/media, then you need to network like a rabid bastard which means repeated banal posts on whatever social media platform you can get your calloused mitts on. Bianca posts more regularly than me for sure, but WAY less regularly than your typical actor. This lass has had her new fledgling film publicised (thanks in part to Tattle), and so posting an extremely subtle update with direct relation to the content of said film is pretty much essential at this stage of production. If she was posting multiple times daily, then I'd get it, but give the gal a break.
Ioan's career has been pretty exceptional given that he doesn't 'do' the socials. It's amusing that some people don't realise that he's likely barely scraping even at the moment thanks to expensive lawyers, household bills, crazy STBX etc, so he really
should be gadding about on Insta to try and raise his profile. Better this way than raise money for his kids via salacious clickbait in 'Take A Break' magazine.
As for the wee girls: I was a young un once, and I also taught for 20 years. It gives me a right ol' chuckle to read the 'the girls must be thinking
<insert adult's fabricated idea of children's thought process here> about I and B's Insta posts'. Those girls are likely WAAAy more bothered with Alice 'Edie' Evans' social vomit than they are with the calmly-curated IoBee output.
As for the 'how could Ioan leave those beautiful girls yada yada yada' - as others with greater legal knowledge have pointed out, he has no option. But also, what's the alternative? He stays and tries to force access, which would exacerbate Alice's emotions and result in an extremely stressful for the kids? That is the absolute worst thing he could do. We have no idea how much contact he has, but it's highly likely he's calling them via their own mobile phones/their school/Gloria etc. Alice lies - fact - so let's stop this 'he's had no contact with those precious girls' shite.
Finally, a snippet into my own personal clusterfuck: My OH has a kid. She was about 3 when we met, and his ex went NUTS and did everything in her power to separate us, which mostly consisted of brainwashing the poor kid into stealing our things, recording ur conversations etc. We tried everything to manage this situation: family therapy, pandering to crazy ex, pandering to child etc. Nothing worked. In the end, my OH was becoming a shadow of himself, the kid was developing controlling personality traits, and everything was going to
tit. So, he backed off. Said 'enough is enough'. He had a very painful year with no contact at all with his kid (with the full support of a therapist), but it worked. Crazy ex realised she didn't control the situation, so did the kid, and this kid is now 15 and not only barely remembers those years but now has a great relationship with pops. Sadly, I'm still out of the picture (by choice - I don't want to rock the boat at all, and she'll be old enough to make her own decisions soon so), but the main thing is that it was the right thing to do to cut ties when he did. He wishes he'd done it sooner now in fact.
I did say in my single previous post that my softening towards AE would be short-lived did I not. Soz.
*ETA*
RE: the 'Edie' reference (just in case I was being too obscure): look up the amazing 'Grey Gardens' documentary. I haven't decided whether AE is modelling herself on Big or Little Edie, or maybe crowbarring into a Medium Edie.
