‘By the way, I have been 50-80% bedbound with fibro for the past 13 years.

He would say to me over and over when I told him I was sorry I couldn’t come to an event ‘I didn’t sign up for this! I didn’t sign up for life with a chronically sick person!’ #liarslie.’

Alice also shared a message from her ex to their eldest daughter Ella which read: ‘Hi Ella, No, I won’t be taking you to a concert.

The last time you and I spoke you threatened me with calling child protective services. You then hacked my Instagram and posted disgusting comments that made the newspapers.’

Old emails: Alice also shared a screenshot of an email sent to her by Ioan on August 11 2020 in which the actor says to his wife ‘I love you to pieces to pieces!!’

Messy split: Alice claims in her caption that the date of the message doesn’t correlate with Ioan’s timeline of their split’

‘This isn’t a kind and loving father daughter relationship. A lot needs to happen before something like this can become possible.

I am in therapy. You will need to go back into therapy as well. Until then we cannot move forward like nothing has happened as your actions have been far too serious.’

Alice wrote alongside the screenshot: ‘Anybody see a slight difference in the way my husband is presenting his relationships with his kids and the reality?

This is just ONE text. You still all believe him?’

She also shared a screenshot of an email sent to her by Ioan on August 11 2020 in  which the actor says to his wife ‘I love you to pieces to pieces!!’ 

Alice claims in her caption that the date of the message doesn’t correlate with Ioan’s timeline of their split.

‘So…. He returned in August 2020 and told me he was unhappy on the marriage…. But sent me this?’ Alice wrote.

Anyone believe NOW that this man is a liar? He is a liar. Jesus. A liar and a perjurer. What sort of person writes these two completely conflicting pieces? Stop believing the lies!!’

On her Instagram Stories Alice broke down in tears as she read through Ioan’s declaration filed with the court this month, in which he reiterated allegations that Evans had been verbally abusing during their 14-year marriage, and ‘undermine[ing him] in front of the girls throughout their lives.’

Holding a copy of the document, an emotional Alice told the camera: ‘Hey guys, because of the way things work here in California I didn’t get this and I didn’t realise why people were coming onto my social media and attacking me.’

‘I’ve just started to read this declaration from Ioan. It is utterly disgusting and absolutely packed with lies, saying that he was the major caregiver and that I would get up at 11am and drink.’

‘That’s just not true, just absolutely not true. I’ve looked after these girls every day of their lives since they were born. I think I’ve been away like nine nights.’

‘He’s refused to contact them for the last week. He met somebody else and he left us that’s the truth. I just have to go on here and say that you can’t say these things about people. I know so much about him and I would not say this.’

In his most recent court filing, Gruffudd claimed  that Evans ‘has inflicted serious emotional harm on Ella and Elsie by her statements and by interfering in my relationship with them.’

Making things official: Ioan has asked for joint custody and visitation rights

‘Alice made fun of my appearance often, making hair-loss comments and telling me I had “saggy-vagina eyes,” ‘ court papers filed on Friday read. 

He went on to claim that Evans ‘has inflicted serious emotional harm on Ella and Elsie by her statements and by interfering in my relationship with them.’

In a video before the former couple’s separation in January 2021, which Gruffudd presented as evidence in the filing, Evans allegedly told Ella she would be ‘getting a new daddy.’

‘In a FaceTime I had with the girls on March 3, Ella said Alice falsely told her that I wanted Alice to commit suicide, and that Ella probably would not have a mummy anymore,’ Gruffudd wrote in the petition.

‘Ella told me, “Daddy, this is making me very sad,” and, “if I don’t agree with her, apparently I am a bad daughter.” 

Evans was married to Gruffudd for 14 years before their messy split last year and they are involved in a lengthy court case in which he accused her of domestic abuse.  

He went on to claim that Evans ‘has inflicted serious emotional harm on Ella and Elsie by her statements and by interfering in my relationship with them’

Last month, Evans claimed to be ‘completely out of money for food and bills’ but declared she is focused on being ‘the best mother I can possibly be.’ 

In an Instagram post with one of her daughters pictured, she wrote made scathing comment about her lack of funds as the court case between her and her estrange husband continues on. 

She claimed she would receive no financial support from Ioan and that she was struggling to pay her legal fees and would be unable to ‘feed or clothe’ their daughters.

Gruffudd said he was ‘concerned’ about Evans’ usage of social media

Gruffudd said he was ‘concerned’ about Evans’ usage of social media

‘Trying to hold it all together whilst being threatened, completely out of money for food and bills and just found out somebody tried to break down our outside door last night,’ she said. 

‘But it’s all worth it for this! (And the one who currently doesn’t want to be photographed.)

‘Whatevs. Most of all, I will be the best mother I can possibly be. Forever. They will never lose me. Thank you everybody for so much love and support! Having a bit of a rough moment!’

Evans claimed in June that Ioan had been successful in having his domestic violence restraining order (DVRO) against her extended, yet she denied any claims of abuse and insisted he was ‘chasing Johnny Depp-style fame.’

Two sides: Gruffudd has accused Evans of emotionally scarring the children 

It has since been revealed that Ioan was seeking a a continuation of a restraining order against Alice.

He took out a temporary restraining order against her in February, citing a string of abusive messages she had sent him as she came to terms with him walking out.

In a bid to bring matters to a close, Gruffudd, engaged Brad Pitt’s divorce lawyer, Anne Kiley, who is believed to have requested that the order – which requires Evans doesn’t contact or harass him or his girlfriend – carries on for at least another year.

After the court hearing, Evans claimed she had been issued with a DVRO (domestic violence restraining order) which she insisted was ‘unjust.’

Gruffudd filed for divorce from Evans in March 2021, citing irreconcilable differences as the reason behind their split. He is now living with girlfriend Bianca Wallace, 30, in Los Angeles.

The pair went Instagram official in October, after he posted a picture of them together with the words: ‘Thank you for making me smile again.’

Gruffudd requested a restraining order against Evans n February 2022, offering up 113 pages of abusive text messages, emails and social media posts from Alice.
