Actor Ioan Gruffudd and his wife, Bianca Wallace, are expecting their first baby just weeks after tying the knot. The newlyweds shared the news on Instagram with a black-and-white photo of Gruffudd, 51, kissing Wallace’s baby bump in a side-profile silhouette. “Baby Gruffudd poppin’ out to say hello!” Wallace, 32, captioned the post. In April, the couple announced their marriage in a video showing them exchanging vows against a scenic coastal backdrop. Their union comes after years of bitter separation drama between Gruffudd and his ex-wife, actress Alice Evans, 56, with whom the Welsh actor shares two daughters. Gruffudd—whose acting career included roles in Titanic and Fantastic Four—filed for divorce from Evans in 2021 after 13 years of marriage, setting off a slew of court battles over custody, child support, and spousal payments. The dispute intensified when their 13-year-old daughter filed a restraining order against Gruffudd and Wallace, alleging Wallace slammed a door on her during an argument, causing a bump on her head and bruises on her arms.
