Ioan Gruffudd and Alice Evans #81 I'll never understand what I did wrong

[tilly27]

The latest……


You beat me to it with better quality

She's a joy to work with.... said nobody who ever had to work with Alice

I do hope Snowy and Salt can forgive Ioan for the letter. I never read or saw it but apparently it was quite harsh? Clearly he believed Alice back then but now it's clear it was all her bullshit and lies.

You know how people say the internet is forever? Yeah. I'd bet money Alice wrote that letter. Aghast! State of shock! Despicable!

Mr. Fantastic Not So Fantastic

Welsh actor Ioan Gruffudd, best known for his roles in Fantastic Four and the award-winning AE minseries, Horatio Hornblower , is losing the loyalty of many of his dedicated fans. In light of Internet reaction to the often bizarre behavior of his fiancee, Alice Evans, Mr. Gruffudd…

Wouldn't it be nice for the girls and IG's parents (and for Alice's father too for that matter) if they were able to spend time together. It's terrible that extended family ties have been broken especially since the girls are so young.

I don’t think it’s far off. I think he’s going to be awarded 100% custody. Yes he has to work, but I think a plan is in place, with Anne’s help and experience. And the kids are just going to have to suck it up with B as a step mom (with great care on I and B’s behalf) because they are not the first kids ever to have a step mom or to have a family have to try and rebuild themselves after a catastrophic event (divorce, death, illness, disability)….what are the judge’s options? I know Ioan wants to co parent but she has gone straight nuclear with that. The judges hands are tied. The judge will have no choice, when the matter of custody finally goes before them, but to apply the law as it stands re parental alienation and the safest, healthiest, most stable environment for the kids.

Where I am, Scotland anyway there's a saying
"Who are all the pies?"
It's a jibe - meaning the person saying it to the other person is overweight/fat/eats a lot

Where I'm from in the US Northeast, we call those folks Joey Bag A Donuts.

that's the one

Dear all,

It is with a heavy heart that I write this letter. I was utterly aghast and in a state of shock when I discovered the unpleasant and sometimes vitriolic comments that were being leveled at my fiancée Alice when I recently observed the community forum on ‘ioanonline’. I find it hard to believe that people who have supported me so ardently over the years would behave in such a despicable manner.

I have never been happier since meeting and falling in love with Alice and I am overwhelmed with excitement about getting married to the woman of my dreams.

I am aware that it is always a small minority that gives the majority a bad name.

I wish to thank those of you who continually support everything I do in such a positive and passionate manner, and I implore the few of you that sullies the good name of the majority to put an end to this practice that has brought such heartache to me personally.

Regards

Ioan

You beat me. By hours! Serves me right for posting before reading.

Cant tell if this is a joke... or not.

It was meant to be a joke!

The dog could be other places. Ioan has friends in LA. Maybe someone he knows welcomed fur-baby sitting. But probably he hired a pet-sitting service and Bubba Bear is staying with some person who has a small dog-sitting service.

It was a joke, hard to convey in the written word sometimes.

It’s the worst right? There is so much you want to reply to and either the damn thread locks or you don’t want to be redundant because everyone here is so quick and so clever lol

I doubt Ioan wants full custody tbh. I think he wants/needs the time to nurture his still relatively young relationship with BW and throwing her into the full time step mum role when she’s never even met the girls, particularly as it’s going to be tricky at the start, would kind of put a pin in his and BWs cosy honeymoon stage relationship…. No more couples trips or having time to dedicate to just them and their relationship. Young girls are hard work and they’ve just been through trauma. Not saying I want AE to have any custody at all, but I just think Ioan is unlikely to push for full custody.

As we take a walk down memory lane and welsh cakes, I just wanted to throw this in the mix (hi, Alice) about moving on with lives. I think Sheen was one of IGs roommates along the way.

Michael Sheen and his much younger girlfriend (wife?) are expecting their second child together. I'm not saying I think IG/BW are expecting, but what's the harm in a new life entering the world?

I have a feeling that AE is FUMING that she didn't think of calling a Welsh eggplant the great Christine Baranski first.

The couple is parents to daughter Lyra, 2, and Michael is also dad to 23-year-old daughter Lily with ex Kate Beckinsale

Next round. I 100% believe that Alice made a sock email and sent Gill emails the night she went off, two nights ago was it? Since Gill isn’t protected under the restraining order (through she has evidentiary value and would be considered 3rd party, especially given they are in each other’s presence at the moment) and Alice was in a rage about B and I being there, I think she let loose. This might be why the phone dump on Instagram with the entire Gruffudd family’s deal of approval. And Alice, knowing she went too far hasn’t taken this latest bait….yet. I also think, as Alice mentioned before, Ioan threatened to go for full custody in the early days and I think he has a child care plan in place and ready to execute. They’re on holiday, the lawyer has probably said, it’s only a matter of when not if the kids are taken off her, they know it’s now starting to all fall into place Reread the case law in the Rutherford case this week and in was mainly California jurisdiction so Alice is not in great legal shape. At all.
Another thought: did she lose her “make up artist” at the same time Gloria was let go?

Interesting, friend. Very interesting... You have proven correct thus far and I do believe that you are traveling down the right road indeed.

I don’t think he has a choice. The judge is not going to award 50/50 with her in this state even if Ioan was on side for 50/50. There are lots of dads out there who take on full custody and work when the mom is a wreck in the same way lots of moms take on the household when the husband leaves and aren’t given support. Lots of truly “single” parent make it work. And it seems there are two paternal grandparents who will be happy to step in and help….whatever that looks like

Yeah I agree although I don’t think he would put BW before his kids. It will be interesting to see how custody plays out cos there are no good answers that I can see.

I'm now getting ads here for Evans Boutique from the algorithm. How apt for our mAlice.

For those less ancient than me and for those outwith the UK, the shop chain called Evans used to be known as Evans Outsize....

He’s not going to put her first. I think they’re all (grandparents included) going to work as a team. Bianca is getting fiercer by the day and I don’t think the is some short term thing….they are taking on each other’s life commitments (health, childcare, exes) warts and all and it seems to be going from strength to strength….I don’t think a judge will give her 50% even if the entire G family gave sworn affidavits in her favour

I agree with this. I have been trying to disconnect some times from the awfulness that is AE with jokes.

But the truth is that that AE is out of control, and there is evidence that supports the kids being placed with their father with a tacit understanding that AE should seek help (court ordered).

Obviously I could be wrong and it’s only a theory but given her past antics……I think Gill or Peter got an earful (emailful?) the other night

 

[Blurp]

I know one thing she wouldn’t be capable of .. walking in a straight line and touching her nose with her finger

"The Leith Police dismisseth us" would be a fail too.

Affidavits from close family will have far more impact on a judge than Twitter fan letters and ramblings from a lovestruck NZ fantasist. Alice only has contact with her brother Tone and she has made it clear there have been real issues and periods of estrangement.

Oh we need the jokes to cope and she is a very deserving recipient of our derision….but yep, she is not fit for anything but supervised visits at this point in time, if that. The judge, like you said, may (hopefully) order her into treatment and then onus is on her to show she has taken steps and is fit and WANTS them back in her life by complying with the treatment plan set out for her.

Also there is evidence on Tones twitter of someone with anger issues.
