Bianca Wallace’s Response to Alice Evans: Flaunting High Street Watch

Bianca Wallace has hit back at Alice Evans’ claims that Ioan Gruffudd is spending all of his money on ‘Rolexes for her,’ sharing a cryptic Instagram post on Monday.

In her latest legal filing, Alice claimed that the Fantastic Four star had stopped paying him child and spousal support, and was instead splashing out on expensive accessories for his bride-to-be Bianca.

Now, Bianca has hit back in a post where she proudly shows off her £169 art deco watch from the high street brand Olivia Burton.

In what appeared to be a dig at Alice, Bianca was also sported a gold bracelet with the slogan: ‘Remember who the f**k you are.’  

She captioned her post: ‘How cute are Mums with the critical life reminders: Remember who the f*ck you are…’

Several of Bianca’s followers also appeared to spot her dig at Alice, with comments including: ‘I’d say we both love bracelets and cool non-Rolex watches. I love Swatch. Hit a bunch of them bc watches are the new accessory.

‘I also think everyone needs reminders on their wrists. Mine say ”take a deep breath and let that s**t go”;’

‘Nice Rolex; Keep being you Bianca. Beautiful watch and so much nicer than a Rolex;’

It comes after bombshell court papers revealed that Alice claims that Ioan stopped paying her either child or spousal support in April.

According to a court filing on July 1 seen by MailOnline, Alice claimed was in a dire financial crisis, behind on rent and utility payments and struggling to put food on the table for their daughters Ella, 14, and Elsie, 10.

She alleged Ioan and Bianca have been travelling the world and recently bought new Rolex watches.

A page from the court filing appeared to show the $77,000 that Ioan is said to have paid out to Wallace in December last year. The biggest single payment is $53,760 – for a ‘loan repayment’.

Alice also said that Bianca made a ‘completely false’ and highly defamatory attack on her on Instagram in April this year.

But in a new social media post, Bianca shared a snap that showed her watch was instead a high street purchase from Olivia Burton 

She shared a cryptic caption alongside the post, declaring: ‘Remember who the f**k you are’

In the post, aspiring actress Bianca said she had been contacted by thousands of people who claimed Evans had abused or th
reatened them – declaring that she was going to ‘stand up’ to ‘bullies’. 

Alice’s lawyers argue this means that Wallace was in breach of a custody stipulation, which forbids either of them from being negative about the others in front of the children.

Because their eldest daughter, Ella, has Instagram, her lawyers said this was a breach.

In the papers, Evans added that Ella was very upset when a school friend told her about the post and ‘cried out she never wants to see Ioan again.’

The documents say that Evans’ lawyers emailed Gruffudd’s lawyers to ask for Bianca’s Instagram post to be removed, but received no response. They note that Bianca used the pronoun ‘we’ in the post, which implied that her fiancée agreed with her.

It is also the case that Evans, after hundreds of outbursts on social media and elsewhere in the immediate aftermath of their separation in 2021, is subject to a restraining order which means that she was not able to respond at the time.

The filing is an urgent request for funds. In it, Evans, who met Gruffudd on the set of the film 102 Dalmatians, said: ‘As it stands, I have very little money coming in each month. I earn approximately $300 per month in royalties.

‘I have drained all of my personal savings paying my prior attorneys in this case and paying for my expenses.

‘I have some personal property, such as vintage designer items, held in storage, that I could possibly sell, but they are in danger of being sold at auction because I cannot pay the monthly storage fee (Ioan stopped paying post-separation even though our daughters’ childhood mementos are stored there.)’

She added: ‘As it stands, I am behind on rent and utility payments, and friends have started dropping off groceries and food so the children and I can eat. I will be applying for food stamps and welfare.

‘While I am struggling to put food on the table for our children, Ioan is jet setting around the world. Ioan could not appear at his noticed deposition for custody issues because he travelled to the UK. 

‘Since April 2024, according to his Instagram page and press releases, he has been in the UK, Cardiff, Sardinia, Rome, Spain, and Seattle.

‘Based upon stories in the media, Ioan purchased an expensive engagement ring for his fiancée and they recently purchased new Rolex watches. ‘

It comes after bombshell court papers revealed that Alice claims that Ioan stopped paying her either child or spousal support in April 

Ioan announced his engagement to Bianca in January

She acknowledged she signed a prenuptial agreement in 2007 before marrying Ioan. It gives her 20 per cent of his earnings as spousal support in the event of a split, or 10 per cent if they have children.

She noted: ‘This provision punishes me for having children, which I contend offends the public policy of the State of California that both parents are to contribute to the financial support of the children, especially in this case where I now have 100% custody of the children.’

At the time of the prenup, which is attached to the filing, Gruffudd said he had a net worth of £2million, and she had $40,000 in various accounts.

The couple split up in January 2021, and in September of that year he went public with Wallace, who was an extra on the show Harrow which was filmed in Australia.

It was only at the end of 2023 that some interim spousal and child support was settled. 

The agreed payment was $3,000 a month in interim child support and $7,000 a month in spousal support. Evans said that Gruffudd only paid the spousal support from December 2023 to April 2024 and has paid nothing since.

Her lawyers say that he earned on average $21,000 a month in 2023, but during the marriage had earned between $500,000 and $1million a year.

They claimed that Gruffudd earns tens of thousands of dollars a month, per his tax filings, and that he also received ‘approximately $390,000 from the sales proceeds of the home just in December 2023’.

‘In this case, a disparity in access to funds to pay fees exists because Alice earns only a few hundred dollars per month, while Ioan’s self-reported average monthly income on his Income and Expense Declaration filed January 24, 2024, is $21,023 for the 36 months ending December 31, 2023 and $18,264 for the 12 months ending December 31, 2023,’ the legal filing states.

‘Moreover, Ioan continues to get roles in movies, such as Bad Boys 4, which was just released this year. Ioan also received approximately $390,000 from the sales proceeds of the home just in December 2023.’

Alice asked the court to pay her attorneys and alleged that he has been paying two different law firms and a forensic accountant.

It was initially understood that the financial issues would go to trial by April 2024 but that has now been put off to August.

‘Alice is applying for public assistance because she is unable to support herself and the children,’ her lawyer states in the latest legal filing.

‘It appears that the financial trial will be several months away and Alice will not be able to survive without the receipt of guideline spousal support.

‘Ioan has the ability to pay spousal support based upon his greater ability to earn income and his ongoing lavish lifestyle. For these reasons, Alice requests guideline child and spousal support.’

The issue of custody has been settled, with both parties signing a stipulation two months ago. 

Following an evaluation by a child custody expert, which took several months, Evans was granted 100 per cent custody. Gruffudd had wa
nted a 50-50 arrangement.

Her lawyer Janina Verano also says that since May 2023, Gruffudd has not seen the children outside of reunification therapy nor has he ‘exercised his court ordered right’ to have a telephone call with them three times a week. Reunification therapy ended in February this year.

‘Ioan has not telephoned the children or returned their text messages since May of 2023,’ Evans said. 

She added: ‘The children have been left in limbo and are completely confused about when or if they will see Ioan.’

Through an order filed by her lawyer, Evans says that she does not agree to the sealing or keeping private of their stipulation, or custody agreement in its entirety, which is what Gruffudd has requested – accusing him of being ‘disingenuous’ in his request to seal the legal proceedings in order to ‘protect the children’.

Alice’s attorney noted that Ioan ‘did not seek to seal any of DVRO [domestic violence] pleadings nor any of the custody pleadings wherein he falsely accuses Alice of abusing the children’ – calling out the fact that he only wishes to seal those proceedings in which the allegations were resolved.

Alice was made subject to a restraining order by her estranged husband in February 2022 after she posted a number of messages about him and his new girlfriend on social media and allegedly sent him over 100 texts. 

One suggested: ‘You’ve got your nuts stuck in her veneers.’ She denied abusing or harassing him.

The order was extended for three years in August 2022, and Alice was forbidden from posting about either Gruffudd or Wallace.

In June last year, elder daughter Ella, then 13, applied for a restraining order against Gruffudd after a custody visit ended in chaos. 

She said: ‘I was so mad at my dad because this was an overnight visit, and I had told him in the past that I didn’t want to meet his girlfriend who was now his live-in girlfriend.’

Alice and Ioan (pictured in 2018) settled interim and child support last year, but she has now accused her ex of not paying spousal or child support since April

She claimed that Bianca had slammed a door against her head as she was running from their apartment after pouring milk and mustard around in protest.

In publicly available documents she said that she was ‘afraid’ of her father and said that he had threatened to ‘call the police on her anytime she misbehaves’ during visits.

The request for a restraining order was dropped in court by Ella, who faced her father’s legal team.

The couple married in Mexico in 2007 after meeting on the set of the Disney film 102 Dalmatians.

Gruffudd’s representatives were contacted for comment.
