I think the only relationship she's ever been able to sustain is the one she had with Ioan.
Did she sustain it or did he stay because of the kids until it got too much and even he had to leave for the sake of his own mental well being and sanity.

my impression is that Alice is a good casual friend to have as she is all in all a interesting character (she has opinions and things she is interested in etc. etc.), there are clearly a number of people that have been in one way or another friends with her for 20-25 years - but I get the impression that she doesn't have this one great friend which with she can hang out 3-4 days a week and that can tell her shit without she wont like (I may be wrong, but her Social Media never indicated otherwise, she seems to be meeting people like Lady V once in a while, and she bemoaned more than once that she doesnt have close friends in LA) - I wonder if that is because her best friends simply dont live (regulary) in LA or because she is too taxing as a close friend. Her turning internet strangers that wouldn't strongly disagree with her because of her status so easily to friends, or even best friends, makes me think that.

Oooh, I research the bodies on Everest and the Titanic and stuff like that, too. Have you read 'Into Thin Air' by Jon Krakauer and 'Facing Up' by Bear Grylls? They're good!

I imagine her to be high maintenance and intense as a friend. It's in her personality. Can you imagine how she responds to a friend doing or saying something she perceives as a slight on her, for example not calling when they said they would. I know some people just don't find their tribe and it isn't necessarily a reflection on them as a person but I expect Alice isn't someone easy to be with for long periods of time.

Alice is that friend I'd be reading about on social media and shaking my head saying "Yeah. Saw this coming!"

I haven't commented here in ages, just lurking and liking. I always hate to pile on anyone regarding signs of depression tbh, I've been that soldier many times and it's always hard to see people tear apart someone who is depressed. I've reached the stage where I literally do not give fuck if people look at me like a shit on a shoe if I've summoned up energy to go to the village shop in my baggy leggings and slippers for milk tbh. for me that's a win. But, and big AE BUTT. I do not take a pic of myself and share for the world, and I would never ever have denigrated my ex hub, shite as he was in many ways, for not cuddling up to me on or offline with stinky breath etc. it's what she does and why/ how she does it that always sticks in my craw. like, WTF POST THAT IF NOT TO SHAME?

Defo. She would blast you like a GOT dragon for that I bet

I suppose Ioan must be heading home shortly for The court appearance at some point, believe he has to attend in person iirc?

he has to attend but not in person

there is the Race to Erase MS thingy in LA in 2 weeks. He regulary attended this with Alice, it would be a wasted opportunity to not go there, so I guess by then?

Oooh, it would be lovely if they went there, but I assume they would have to be invited?
What if the event invites both Ioan and Alice separately?

you buy a ticket as a donation

it's 5k for a couple

you can bet that Alice will probably break down the cost of this and their trip to the UK, plus whatever he missed out by not taking a job during the spring months to moan about how he could have paid with this all the school stuff LOL

Lovely to see Ioan getting together with his old Pobol y Cwm co-stars yesterday. You get the feeling there were so many people he wasn’t allowed to meet up with before the split. They mention not having seen him for a very long time.
Where did you find this? Through a hashtag?

No, I follow one of the other actors on social media. There’s also this one from about a month ago. B was a hit according to the comments

btw, I’m new and just want to check. I don’t need to blank their faces out if they’re actors and therefore public figures? Tell me if I’m crossing a line!

Also from a long-time lurker! Good to finally join you.

Considering everything Alice has said directly and by proxy about him ruining his reputation seeing him play the lead in a family show like Doctor Who would be unbelievably awesome

BIB - agree very much. Young, she would have been an entertaining acquaintance. Older, she's just crazy.

Friends usually will tolerate a friend's troublesome partner but will use the first opportunity to bail on that partner as soon as things go south.
BIB - also agree, in my experience.

Personal hygiene does go south very quickly in depression. In my case, its brushing teeth first and showering if it gets worse. I use a few things now as indicators of my mental health. As soon as they start happening I take action.
Nightclothes - not so much. I can happily wear them half the day if I'm not going out anywhere. I NEVER wear nightclothes out though.
