Fantastic Four star's ex threatens to ‘Amber Heard’ him, accuses actor of being paedo online

Fantastic Four actor Ioan Gruffudd shared in court yesterday that his former partner threatened to sabotage him, comparing it to the "Amber Heard" situation.

The 52-year-old actor alleged that Alice Evans, 57, aimed to ruin both him and his profession by labeling him as a “child abuser, pedophile, and drug addict” during the dramatic start of their legal face-off.

The actor is urging a judge to extend the restraining order against his former wife, Evans, in what is expected to be a demanding nine-day session in Los Angeles.

He expressed to the court: “It was heart-wrenching for me as a father to see such misinformation circulating.”

Gruffudd recounted an incident where his ex was “aggressively scolding and threatening” him during a child drop-off with Evans.

Relating it to Heard’s allegations against her ex, Johnny Depp, he claimed: “She stated she planned to destroy me and 'Amber Heard' me.”

“Following that, she instructed the girls: ‘If your dad ever acts strangely or makes you uncomfortable, let me know.’

“She then began yelling profane language at full volume.

“Her behavior was extremely aggressive – completely uncontrolled. It was quite distressing and alarming.”

Gruffudd informed the court about Evans' threats of physical harm, and mentioned that she messaged him, vowing, “I will dedicate my life to battling you” after he filed for divorce.

He stated, “I was deeply hurt and ashamed.”

In additional messages, he relayed that she wrote, “You won't remain an actor, love; you'll just be begging for money.”

The Fantastic Four actor also mentioned that his ex hired a private investigator to track his new spouse, Bianca Wallace, 33.

He accused Evans of threatening to fabricate a crime against Australian Wallace to have her deported.

Gruffudd said in court: “She alleged I was a child predator, a pedophile, and a drug user.

“She claimed I was obsessed with sex, drugs, and younger people.”

“I was frightened about how this might affect my public image and career. I felt disheartened, frustrated, and powerless.

“It threatened my bond with my children.”

The duo, who tied the knot in 2007, share two daughters, Ella, aged 13, and Elsie, aged nine.

Their separation in 2021 was public and tumultuous, with their divorce finalised in 2023.

At the breakup’s peak, Evans accused Gruffudd of being involved in an affair with Wallace over three years—he refused these claims in court.

Evans, who connected with her ex during the filming of 102 Dalmatians in 2000, blamed him for “manipulating” and mentally tormenting her.
