AceShowbiz - Ioan Gruffudd and girlfriend Bianca Wallace have gotten engaged. When sharing the news with fans, the "Fantastic Four" star and his now-fiancee unleashed a photo of the two in which Bianca flaunted her new sparkle.
In the snap shared on Instagram on Saturday, January 20, the 50-year-old and his partner could be seen smiling post-kiss. The actress, in the meantime, gave fans a closer look to her multi-stone ring.
In the caption of the post, the couple wrote, "The most precious thing happened." They also added a red heart and ring emoji.
Ioan was previously wed to Alice Evans. In January 2021, he announced that their marriage was over and he went public with his new romance with Bianca in October that year.
Ioan and Alice have since been embroiled in a legal wrangle over their girls Ella, 13, and her sister Elsie, nine. In August 2023, a judge in Los Angeles granted the actor's demand for the appointment of a child psychologist to assess the case.
It arrived after Ioan branded Alice a "child abuser." Court documents filed in Los Angeles obtained by the Daily Mail showed the actor saying, "Alice has continued to inflict serious emotional harm on Ella and Elsie by her statements and by interfering in my relationship with them."
"Alice has verbally abused and undermined me in front of the girls throughout their lives," he added. "Since January 2021, Alice has also encouraged and instructed them not to see me or communicate with me. She has made thousands of threatening and abusive communications to me and about me."
Ioan obtained a restraining order in August 2022 against Alice after he walked out on her after a 14-year marriage before he moved in with Bianca. He, however, claimed that Alice has "violated the restraining order repeatedly and continues to do so to this day."
