I remember reading on here that he was friends with Matthew Rhys, are they still friends? I only know who he is due to watching The Americans. He's married to Keri Russell. Between them, they have three kids (she has two from a previous marriage and they have one together). Looks like it is possible to have children and both work as actors. I think Alice can't admit to herself that her career hasn't worked out for other reasons, she has to tell herself it is due to having children. She can't accept any other reason. There is no shame in failing, it happens to many of us in many different circumstances in our lives and we have to reassess, recalibrate and pick a new path. There's nothing wrong in being a SAHM either, it's just that she doesn't seem that interested in the children and she needed a life outside the home, whether that was a new career, hobbies or a social circle. She has cast herself as Ioan's wife and become unhealthily dependent on him for interaction and for status, she doesn't seem to have anything outside that, even a hobby. I'm a SAHM and you need to keep a piece of yourself too and think about the future.
