AceShowbiz - Alice Evans couldn't be happier to have scored a small victory in her legal battle against her estranged husband Ioan Gruffudd. After prosecutors dropped charges against her, the actress expressed gratitude in a video shared on Instagram.
"Hi guys," the 54-year-old said in the clip shared on Sunday, March 12. "I just wanted to say thank you to everybody who has been so supportive of me over the past few days, few weeks, few months, few years, since 2019, actually."
"I've tried to read everything and I know that [at] the moment I'm not on social media and I can't really come back to you personally, but I promise I will and you will never be forgotten," she added. "Things are going well."
Alice went on to note, "Me and the girls are good, and I just wanted to send so much love and gratitude." The British and American star concluded the video by blowing a kiss to the camera.
Ioan, who filed for divorce from Alice in March 2021, filed a petition for domestic violence restraining order against her back in February 2022. In the docs, he requested that his ex stay 100 yards away from him and his current girlfriend Bianca Wallace and not be allowed to contact either of them.
Alice, however, risked violating her restraining order by posting remarks about Ioan and Bianca. She also failed to show up at the Airport Courthouse in Los Angeles on January 27 to answer the charges, prompting L.A. Superior Court Commissioner James Cooper to issue a referral for an arrest warrant for her.
Alice managed to avoid jail time though. She then pleaded not guilty to the two charges, and prosecutors chose to drop them last week.
