Evans above, Alice!

-

ACTRESS Alice evans has become a heroine with the Wronged Wives Club, a cheerleade­r for the Sorrowing Sorority of Dumped Dames as she unflinchin­gly lays bare her husband’s alleged perfidy on her social media accounts.

I don’t know whether to applaud Alice’s furious updates or urge her to close the lid on her keyboard for the sake of the kids. She accuses estranged husband Ioan Gruffudd of cheating on her for at least a year — after he went ‘Instagram official’ with new love Bianca Wallace.

‘Thanks for making me smile again,’ he posted under a cosy photograph of them together. he may have meant well, but how wounding for his poor wife (right, with Ioan).

There is something so wild and almost exhilarati­ng about Alice’s refusal to go quietly into that long, dark night of the scorned.

Many women who have suffered a betrayal will surely feel a tiny spark of solidarity as she issues another online beating to her husband. But there are two sides to every story — and we have only heard from Alice.

however, it does seem unfair that he (The Man) can move smoothly on to a lovely new life with a comely lover while she (The Woman) is left stewing in the wreckage of their family, with two bewildered young daughters to care for. On balance, I feel her pain but I do urge caution. Vengeance is sweet, but while wrecking her husband’s reputation and possibly even his acting career might make her feel better for a moment, it is not going to help their children. And in the end, aren’t they all that matter?
