According to the actress, Ioan told her children, Ella, 12, and Elsie, eight, that he and Alice might not get divorced despite their separation in August 2020 and she was surprised to read later about his request for divorce online.

Writing in the Daily Mail, Alice explained: “(She said) ‘I’m sorry Alice, but I’m afraid not. I do not love you anymore ‘. We had always said that we would be together forever, I reminded him, but his eyes remained cold.

“He slept on the couch, saying he needed space. His manners were cold and then one day he simply said that he had found an apartment and was moving. He kept denying that he was dating someone else and sweetened the kids by saying that maybe we wouldn’t get divorced. If I’d been honest, if I’d said, ‘I’ve fallen in love with someone else,’ then maybe I wouldn’t have been so tormented.

“He moved in January of this year and I only knew that he had filed for divorce a few weeks later when I read about it on a gossip website. What a gullible fool he had been! I felt like I was in a windowless room and couldn’t breathe. “

Alice went on to reveal that sharing her problems on social media was the only way she could cope, adding, “So after eight months of torment and confusion, I got back online, because I felt like no one understood my pain. . I had to let it out somewhere. My husband became distant and unfriendly and blamed me for being boring and irritating.

“My Twitter posts caused an eruption around the world. For me, it was quite an epiphany. Critics were yelling that I should keep things private, but I felt like the man I had married was treating me badly and needed someone – heck, everyone! – to know.”

Alice also accused Ioan of breaking her heart twice, first when he left her and again when she revealed her new relationship with aspiring actress Bianca Wallace on Instagram.

Alice wrote: “People may accuse me of washing my dirty clothes in public, but the sad truth is that the Internet has been my friend and my salvation during these horrible months. But it can also be torture. And there was no greater torture for me than the day I saw him with his new girlfriend on his Instagram account earlier this week.

“Now my heart is broken. I feel dead. It has broken my heart twice. The first time he told me he didn’t love me anymore and the second time this week when I found out he had another woman. I haven’t heard a word from him since the news of their relationship broke. “
