Bianca Wallace's sister launches blistering attack on Ioan Gruffudd's ex Alice Evans over 'toxic lies'... as she issues stark warning
Bianca, 32, who is expecting her first child with Ioan, 51, publicly slammed Alice on Instagram last week, accusing her of circulating a 'disgusting, vile story' about them having a three-year affair.
Bianca denied the claims and said she has silently faced Alice's 'pathetic narrative' ever since she went public with Ioan in 2021, but felt forced to speak up after online trolls posted death threats about their unborn child.
Now, in an exclusive statement to the Daily Mail, Bianca's heartbroken sister, Chanel, 30, has also taken aim at Alice, 56, and has revealed how her family is taking measures to deal with the 'abuse' from online trolls.
'I have watched my sister find the courage to slowly rebuild her life,' she said.
In reference to Alice, who was married to Ioan from 2007 until 2021, she continued:'She finally found real love - someone who cherishes and respects her - and yet, for nearly four years, she's been relentlessly targeted with false and toxic lies from someone so clearly trying to cause damage.'
Addressing the online abuse, she said: 'Now, to see their unborn baby being threatened? That's not just disturbing - it's inhumane.'
Bianca and Ioan wed in April 2025 in a romantic ceremony. Two months later they announced they were expecting their first child together.
The Fantastic Four star has two children with Alice: daughters Ella, 15, and Elsie, 11.
Since their acrimonious split in March 2021, Ioan and Alice have been locked in a very public legal battle, resulting in slanging matches that have threatened to overshadow their respective careers.
According to a new court filing, the Daily Mail can exclusively reveal that Ioan has been granted an extension of his three-year restraining order against Alice as of July 30, and it is in effect until their next hearing on August 12.
Addressing the trolls, she continued: 'There is nothing brave about hiding behind a screen to attack a woman, especially one who is pregnant and simply trying to live in peace. This isn't just cruel - it's cowardly.'
Issuing a stark warning, she said: 'Enough is enough. My sister is one of the kindest, strongest people I know. She deserves love, safety, and joy - not harassment.
'So does her husband. So does their baby. We won't sit back quietly.'
Confirming they have 'received death threats' over the alleged 'affair,' Chanel said that her family and Ioan 'see the abuse' from trolls and 'feel its impact,' and 'will always stand up for what's right - with love, with truth, and with each other.'
Ioan and Alice have been embroiled in a bitter legal battle for over four years.
The exes last faced off in a Los Angeles courtroom on July 23 where he was accompanied by his pregnant wife, as seen in photos obtained by the Daily Mail.
It was supposed to be an evidentiary hearing in which Ioan and Alice were to joust over her demands for him to shell out more than the $4,500 per month he is currently paying her ($3,000 in child support and $1,500 in spousal support).
But instead, after a 90-minute delay, the judge ended up scheduling another hearing on August 12 when a date will be set for the case to go to trial and when they will also be discussing the current restraining order.
Alice claimed that she and her daughters were recently evicted from their LA home because she couldn't afford to pay the $6,500 per month rent - and she had to 'burn through' her savings to pay living expenses and legal fees.
Ioan 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.'
Bianca publicly slammed Alice on Instagram this week, accusing her of circulating a 'disgusting, vile story' about them having a three-year affair
Ioan also maintained in court that subpoenaed bank records show that 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.'
A few days later, on July 28, Bianca spoke out on Instagram with a lengthy caption that accompanied a screenshot of some of the hate she has received.
She penned: 'I have ignored this truly pathetic narrative for nearly 4 years now because of how utterly ridiculous and clearly insane it is.
'But threaten my innocent, unborn baby and the time for ignoring is up! Absolutely no one will ever threaten my baby over a made up story about an affair that literally never happened! No way.'
Responding to Alice's claims directly in her post, she continued: 'In October 2021 my husband's ex made up a disgusting, vile story about my husband and I having an affair.
'For 3 years and 9 months the narrative as been ongoing, making people like "rivqah2020" message me, and now my unborn baby, threats like this.
'The TRUTH has been set in black and white, in clear evidence, under oath numerous times, and all available in public record.'
She added: 'I will not have my innocent baby born into this completely intentional manufactured drama. This has all got to end now, and it needs to end with the truth and facts.
'My husband and I haven't deserved one second of this, and now, our unborn baby is being threatened and attacked. Absolutely no f*****g way! I know that I speak for so many people out there who have lived through this kind of abuse, lies and manipulation when I say we are all sick and tired of the b******t now.'

Taking to her Instagram Stories, the former Coronation Street star said: "Friends are the family you chose! "Thank you so much to everyone who has checked in today to see how I am when I needed you the most! I love you all! "Those that haven't… you know who you are!" Yesterday, a heartbroken Kym revealed the sad news that she was saying goodbye to her cousin Carl. The actress and singer took to Instagram to reveal her devastation. She wrote: "I can't believe I'm writing this. Today our family say goodbye to Carl. My cousin. A legend to all who knew him. "A light turned out far too soon. A huge hole in our lives that will never be filled. Sometimes life makes no sense. There are times when you just can't understand how such cruel things happen, to good honest people. "This is one of those times. Carl was the kindest, funniest, most unique person I've ever known. The memories I have of us growing up, the camping holidays with the fam, the laughs, your silliness, your loyalty." Kym called him "one of a kind" and said she would miss him "until the end of time". Coronation Street star Frank Grimes dies aged 78 as tributes paid to 'one of Ireland's greatest actors' She continued: "And I know you would be telling me to stop being a silly a**e and stop crying, and that you would want me to be where I am doing what I'm doing. Doesn't stop me wishing I was there, or thinking of my family today, or grieving, or wishing I could make this better for everyone.

"We send our sincere condolences to his wife Ginnette, his daughter Tilly, his son Andrew, his 7 grandchildren and to all his extended family.

Pixie Lott delightedly reveals her due date and details the exhaustion of mothering son Bertie, 23 months, while pregnant with number two
She is expecting her second child with husband Oliver Cheshire. And Pixie Lott, who is seven months pregnant and already mother to son Bertie, 23 months, has now revealed exactly when she is set to welcome number two. Speaking to The Sun, the Essex-born beauty revealed that she is just four weeks away from welcoming her newborn, with her last gig being Friday's Flackstock. She said: 'I think the last gig [Flackstock] is going to be four weeks before the due date. So yeah, I think it's going to be fine... 'I did it last time and I've checked with the doc and he said that it's fine to keep doing it as long as you feel good. So hopefully, I mean that last show, four weeks, I don't know how long... Woo!' Pixie also discussed how she feels while being pregnant, working and looking after an under two-year-old all in one go. She divulged: 'It's more tiring being pregnant, waking up early and running around after him than the shows. Because with the shows I get like an adrenaline that takes over so I don't even think about it... 'The tiring bit is the running around after the toilet fight.' Last month, Pixie announced live on stage that she was expecting her second child at London's Mighty Hoopla. After revealing her pregnancy, Pixie cradled her blossoming bump and she flashed a radiant smile for the cheering crowd. Her very public announcement came in contrast to her first pregnancy, which she kept a secret until she was 31 weeks along. The pop star took to Instagram to break the joyous news in June 2023, showing off her bump in a black sports bra and leggings, while Oliver planted a kiss on her stomach. While the hitmaker has previously revealed her desire to have a 'big family', telling The Sun in 2021: 'I'm a big family girl, a very big family girl. 'It is everything to me so I would love to have my own when I can find the time. It's such an amazing thing to have.' Pixie and Oliver met for the first time at a Select Model catwalk show back in 2010 and quickly struck up a romance. The model then popped the question in November 2016 on the steps of St Paul's Cathedral in London. The couple finally tied the knot in June 2022 at Ely Cathedral after they were forced to cancel their wedding several times due to the Covid pandemic

Family of Crazy Town singer Shifty Shellshock locked in inheritance battle as they accuse each other of stealing fortune
THE family of late Crazy Town singer Shifty Shellshock are waging a bitter war over his estate that will shock fans across the globe. Loved ones of the rapper, real name Seth Binzer, are battling it out in a Los Angeles court amid a series of jaw-dropping claims. 5 5 5 London-based model Jasmine Lennard - who previously dated Simon Cowell - had a son Phoenix with the tragic song-writer after they started dating in 2010. The father-of-three band frontman passed away at his home at the age of 49 in 2024 - after a lengthy battle with drug and alcohol addiction that spanned four decades. A year on, and Jasmine is at loggerheads with Tracy Shelor, 42, who had a son Gage with the singer, and who was appointed executor of his estate. In sensational legal documents seen by The Sun, Jasmine, 40, claims in a declaration that the LA make-up artist is 'not suitable' for the role due to her 'long-standing pattern of criminal activity' and 'emotional instability'. Jasmine blasted Tracy in a sworn statement which alleges she has an arrest for prostitution. The sultry brunette mum of two Jasmine, a former Big Brother star, goes on to claim that since objecting to Tracy Shelor's appointment she has received, 'multiple written threats from Ms Shelor including to 'ruin my life'.' The beauty's official document objecting to her executor role states: 'Ms Shelor was the only person in the decedent's extended family with whom he had no relationship at the time of his death. "She publicly exploited him during his battle with addiction, sold stories about him to the press, and instigated legacy actions that further deteriorated his mental health. 'To now seek control of his estate after profiting off his struggles and perpetuating them for years is morally repugnant and legally unsupportable.' The legal document claims the remaining estranged family members of troubled Seth are seeking a restraining order against Ms Shelor, and they claim she was banned from his private funeral and burial at Hollywood Forever Cemetery. But Tracy, who dated the rocker between 2004 and 2008 during his well-documented drug addiction issues, has hit back at Jasmine and claimed to The Sun that documents submitted to the court had not been verified. Jasmine's publicly available statement says Ms Shelor has a 'substantial history of legal issues that include criminal charges, arrests and financial instability'. It states her convictions include a 2010 conviction for driving with a suspended license and 2015 arrest in Nevada for 'solicitation of prostitution' - but she was never convicted. A chronological timeline of Ms Shelor's arrests, convictions and financial liabilities include 17 incidents since 2001, according to the online declaration. As well as receiving threats, Jasmine claims Ms Shelor has also 'obstructed the legal and necessary process of obtaining US citizenship and a passport for Phoenix by interfering with a DNA testing process requested by the US Embassy'. Tracy refused permission for a DNA sample to be taken from Gage to help Jasmine's son Phenix have his US citizenship rubber-stamped. Jasmine says, 'her actions have put my son's legal identity and immigration process at serious risk'. The next hearing in the increasingly bitter case is due next month. The Sun understands that Seth's family have accused each other of stealing his fortune and cutting off payments to his dependents since his death. Royalties from his global hits means he receives up to £5,000 a month - which has gone to support his three kids. In 2022, Tracy told The Sun that Seth then owed her more than $64,000 in child support. She said he refused to pay any medical costs for his diabetic son with her - while enjoying vacations to Hawaii. She branded the star a 'deadbeat Dad'. After contacting Tracy yesterday, she told The Sun of Jamine's sworn court statements: 'Substantively, several assertions are inaccurate, and many are decades old and irrelevant.' And she said of her rival: 'She filed these after I declined her personal demand for DNA for her son's US passport - a demand no authority has made of me - and stated she would share them with the press." Tracy claimed that Jasmine's 'actions in this matter have already been reported to the proper authorities.' Tracy told how she is a formally approved foster parent with completed background checks and home evaluations, with 'a strong professional record and community involvement, without any history to support her claims.' And Tracy added she has 'reported the full timeline and supporting evidence to the FBI, the US Department of State, and the UK Embassy'. Seth's family gave thanks for his 'heart of gold' and remembered his 'beautiful soul' in a collective display of unity after his death in a statement to The Sun - before relations turned sour. Crazy Town once said that having 'been to hell and back' shaped them - and they faced more than their fair share of struggles. Seth's death is one of many tragedies to strike the band, who rose to fame in 2000 with their single Butterfly and sold 1.5million of their debut album The Gift Of Game. Crazy Town initially split in 2003 after eight years together amid claims of wild drug-taking and alcohol abuse that led Seth to enter rehab on multiple occasions. The singer had a difficult upbringing. He regularly raided his graphic artist dad's drug stash during his childhood and learned to roll a joint at the age of five. He previously told Rolling Stone: 'My dad was the artsy-fartsy guy who did lots of cocaine and had weed all over the house.' In Seth's teens he sold weed and harder substances and by 18 was jailed for 90 days after robbing another drug dealer at gunpoint. He recalled the band going on coke and speed-fueled marathons while writing songs before being ordered into rehab in 1997. A year later, Seth was in Alcoholics Anonymous and ahead of gigs, the band would regularly recite the AA prayer 'God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change. The courage to change the things I can.' By 2000, he fell off the wagon and was arrested for throwing a chair out of a window while he was drunk. In a 2001 interview, Seth admitted he had spent three months in prison for attempted burglary and that he was regularly selling and using recreational drugs. Throughout the 2000s, Seth battled addiction and sought help on the reality TV shows Celebrity Rehab 1 and 2 and Sober House 1 and 2. His battle with drugs contributed to his split from his first wife Melissa Clark, who he tied the knot with in 2002 and divorced nine years later, citing irreconcilable differences. It's unclear when Seth and Melissa, who shared son Halo, parted ways but in 2008, he dated Tracy Selor, who he had another boy with, Gage. Jasmine Lennard had sole custody of his third son Phoenix, who had a strong relationship with his Dad until his death. 5 5
