Alice Evans has claimed that her estranged husband, Ioan Gruffudd, wants her to ‘go to jail’ for not attending her latest court hearing.

The former couple have been in a bitter battle since their split last year, with the Liar actor since moving on with new girlified, Bianca Wallace.

Earlier this year, he filed a restraining order against his former partner – with who he shares daughters Ella and Elsie – claiming that he was inundated with messages and verbal threats from her.

Taking to social media on Tuesday, the mom-of-two launched a lengthy rant directed at her ex, claiming that he was successful in having the domestic violence restraining order (DVRO) against her extended.

Alongside a screenshot appearing to show an email thought to be sent from Ioan in August, 2020, in which he said that he ‘loved her to pieces’, she wrote on Instagram: ‘My husband and his girlfriend are so scared of me they want me to go to JAIL for not attending court today.

‘But when do I get to say that there was NO abusive marriage for four years? In fact all the time he was with Bianca he was sending me lovely notes like this – the one he sent just before his plane took off.

‘The US judicial system is corrupt. Yes, he has Brad Pitt’s lawyer. But is he paying her?

‘Meanwhile I faithfully paid mine until he told me that screaming at him for leaving was worse than leaving. Is it?’

When asked if she was ‘keeping her head above water’, she replied: ‘I don’t know really – I just now that … the laws are unjust and that I haven’t done anything wrong…. [sic].

‘My ex-lawyer told me I would get a permanent DVRO which is disgusting when you think of all the women/men who have ACTUALLY been violated…

‘I’m just ind of losing it because what else can they do to me? The court option left me with NOTHING! No spousal support and no reimbursement for the fact he’d wasted all our savings on lawyers fees. AND I would have 18 moths PRO. I might aswell use twitter [sic].’

Alice added to another follower that she had been ‘scared of going to jail’ for over six months, and had had enough.

The pair met on the set of 102 Dalmatians, in 2000, and got married seven years later.

They were married for 13 years, and share two children together, when Ioan filed for divorce in March, 2021.

He made his relationship with Bianca public several months later.

Ioan filed an initial restraining order against Alice at the beginning of this year, including over 100 documents showing messages thought to be from his ex, accusing him of drug use, threatening to ‘call every tabloid in the UK’ and hurling insults at him and girlfriend Bianca Wallace.

In his court filing, he also claimed Alice verbally threatened to tell the media he had abused her and she would ‘do to me what Amber Heard did to Johnny Depp’.

Alice rejected all the claims in the restraining order application and says she believes he is filing ‘as a ploy to gain some sort of advantage over me in our divorce proceedings’. 

It was later revealed that she had filed to seek custody of their daughters, asking for Ioan to be given visitation rights.

Metro.co.uk has contacted Ioan’s reps for a comment.
