Alice Evans looked downcast as she was seen for the first time on Monday since her ex husband Ioan Gruffudd married Bianca Wallace.
The actress, 56, kept her head down as she stepped out in Beverly Hills with her daughter Ella for a brief outing just a week after Ioan and Bianca tied the knot.
Alice and Welsh actor Ioan, who share two daughters Ella, 15, and Elsie, 11, endured a bitter divorce two years ago.
The newly-weds took to their respective Instagram to share a grainy video of the them tying the knot in a romantic ceremony, captioning their posts: 'Mr & Mrs Gruffudd. Marriage now, wedding later.'
Set to Martin Arteta's track Past Lives, the video shows the pair saying their vows in front of an idyllic backdrop with a stunning sea view.
Australian actress Bianca, 32, looked every inch the gorgeous bride in a plunging ivory gown while holding on to a bouquet of pink roses.
Meanwhile, Ioan looked dashing in a classic black suit, with the Fantastic Four star at one point seen wiping away tears as he declared his love to his new wife.
The sweet video also sees the newlyweds toasting their marriage with champagne, with other moments seeing them lark around with their pet dog.
The pair, who went public with their relationship in October 2021, looked happier than ever as they shared several kisses throughout the video.
As their Instagram caption suggests, they have officially tied tied the knot in a formal ceremony, with their wedding reception celebration to follow at a later time.
Their happy news was met with a plethora of congratulatory messages from their Instagram followers, with Bianca's sister Chanel remarking: 'So proud! Very exited to have a new brother in our family.'
Their happy moment comes following Ioan's messy split with Alice, with the ex couple formally divorced in July 2023.
However, they are still battling fiercely over spousal support and custody and financial support for their two daughters Ella and Elsie.
At the September 9 court hearing, Judge Josh Freeman Stinn signed off on a stipulated agreement in which Ioan pays $3,000 a month temporary child support and $1,500 a month temporary spousal support until another February 13 hearing where a more permanent support arrangement will be forged.
Their happy news was met with congratulatory messages from their Instagram followers, with Bianca's sister Chanel remarking: 'So proud! Very exited to have a new brother in our family.'
Ioan planned to call his then fiancée Bianca as a witness at the February hearing to testify that his ex wife 'stalked, harassed and abused' her, repeatedly violating a three-year domestic violence restraining order (DVRO) which she and Ioan took out in August 2022, after enduring a 'smear campaign' of hateful text messages, emails and social media posts from her.
Ioan claims that Alice 'engaged in a pattern of damaging and defamatory conduct against me, aimed at intimidating and harassing me and my fiancé, Bianca Wallace, while alienating our two young children from me.'
Ioan – whose latest movie, Bad Boys: Ride or Die has grossed more than $403 million worldwide – has fought Alice's demands for more money, claiming he's paid some $400,000 more in spousal support that he needed to under their pre-marital agreement.
In earlier court papers, he called her claims of poverty 'exaggerated' and said it's a 'false narrative' that she and the children have been left destitute.
The former couple met on the set of the movie 102 Dalmatians more than 20 years ago.
They fell in love in real life and were married in Mexico in 2007.
Ioan filed for divorce in March 2021, shortly after Alice announced on social media that her husband of 14 years was walking out on her and their two daughters.
Meanwhile, in February this year, Alice revealed she's being evicted from her LA home after being 'unable to pay her rent'.
Sharing a sweet throwback snap with her two daughters, Alice shared that she is like many others in Los Angeles trying to find a new place to live
The actress wrote on Instagram that she and her daughters have 'no way of renting even the cheapest room in the city' after being beset by financial woes amid her bitter court battle with ex-husband Ioan.
Sharing a sweet throwback snap with her two daughters, Alice shared that she is like many others in Los Angeles trying to find a new place to live after the city was devastated by fires in January.
Alice was thought to be renting a home in California with her two children after her bitter divorce from Ioan.
