Ioan Gruffudd faces off with ex Alice Evans in tense court appearance
Share this @internewscast.com

Warring exes Ioan Gruffudd and Alice Evans came face to face in a Los Angeles courtroom Wednesday.

In contrast to their previous intense courtroom encounter in September, where Evans was expelled for breaking court rules by capturing cell-phone images of a furious Gruffudd, there was no drama this time.

Evans, 56, dressed in a black skirt and shirt, wearing black-rimmed glasses, and with her blonde hair pulled back, purposefully paid no attention to her Fantastic Four star ex-husband on Wednesday.

On the opposite side of the courtroom, Gruffudd, 51, sporting a beard and clothed in a dark blue suit, tie, and light blue dress shirt, also avoided making eye contact with his former spouse.

His new wife, raven haired Bianca Wallace, 32, sat three rows behind him in court, looking noticeably pregnant in a long navy blue dress under a black jacket.

Wednesday’s court appearances by all three were supposed to be an evidentiary hearing in which Gruffudd and Evans were to joust over her demands for him to shell out more than the $4,500 he is currently paying in support money for her and their two daughters.

But instead, after a 90-minute delay during which Judge Josh Stinn huddled with their lawyers, the judge kicked the can down the road, scheduling another hearing August 12 when a date will be set for the case to go to trial.

In the past week, Evans has filed court documents – found by DailyMail.com – in which she claimed poverty and was so broke that she had to borrow money from friends and set up a GoFundMe account that raised $18,000 in donations.

She said that she and her girls – Ella, 15 and Elsie, 11 – were recently evicted from their LA home because she couldn’t afford to pay the $6,500 per month rent.

She contended that she had to ‘burn through’ her savings to pay living expenses and legal fees.

And she insisted Gruffudd – who married Wallace in April – can afford to pay more than the $3,000 per month child support and $1,500 spousal support he now pays.

But Gruffudd is fighting his ex’s cash demands and in his own court filing, blasted Evans’ claims, saying that she ‘purposely got herself evicted… intentionally ceasing paying rent and instead taking the children on a vacation trip to Europe.’

Her motive, he said, was to ‘support her false public narrative of financial destitution in an attempt to further harm my reputation… as a fraudulent way to strong-arm me into paying more support than I can afford.’

Gruffudd also maintained that subpoenaed bank records show that, far from being broke, Evans made more than $130,000 in 2024 and is expected to earn a similar amount this year – a claim that Evans called ‘false and misleading.’

In his recent court filing Gruffudd told how he was ‘mortified’ to have received ‘dozens of stressed messages from our minor children in which they have parroted Alice’s false and manufactured claims of becoming homeless in the immediate future.’

But in her new court documents, Evans denied manipulating the children to send plaintive messages to their father.

Gruffudd filed for divorce in March 2021, shortly after Evans announced on social media that her husband of 14 years was leaving her

‘I absolutely did not ask the children to send messages to (Gruffudd) about our eviction and pending homelessness,’ she said. ‘The children are well aware of our financial distress and the eviction.’
