Ioan Gruffudd's wife Alice Evans hits town for first night out since he filed for divorce

Ioan Gruffardd 's estranged wife Alice Evans enjoyed her first night out after learning of her divorce through an online report.

Alice, 49, claimed she only found out her husband Ioan, 47, had filed legal papers to get a divorce through reading the news with one of their two daughters.

The mother-of-two was mourning the end of their marriage when she turned to her fans for solace amid her heartbreak.

But it seems as though she's now ready to put the pain behind her as she was spotted dining out at celebrity hotspot Craig's in Hollywood.

The mum-of-two cut a glamorous figure as she opted for a long flowy black skirt which she teamed up with a black long sleeve and a navy sleeveless cardigan.

Alice wore statement gold heels and opted for a dramatic makeup look that featured a bold red lip as a pop of colour.

She accessorised her look with a green clutch bag.

What's more, Alice was spied wearing a new statement ring on her wedding finger that spelled out the word 'love'.

After dining at the fancy eatery, Alice returned home where she uploaded a clip in which she accused her ex Ioan of "winding the s**t up me".

Alice opened up about the pair's "collaborative divorce" talks, writing: "Ok so this is what happens when you have too many Butter Chardonnays and then post your thoughts to Instagram.

"I have to say I have only watched it back now and nearly fell off the bed laughing. it’s the only thing that has made me smile in months. I mean - these two screen shots? Triple face palm."

She went on: "HOWEVER... the amount of feedback, stories and love I have gotten from other women who were dumped out of the blue like I was has given me so much courage - and made me wonder why there has never been an advocate for this?

"So just to say this - I may be back. I am telling you the truth about what happened - I am SO embarrassed that I "posted-while-tipsy" but it hey - I guess everybody know what I think now!"

"Keep telling me your stories and PLEASE don’t worry on my behalf about the negative comments - they just go WOOSH right over my head," Alice added.

Liar star Ioan left his wife in January, with Alice claiming he "no longer loves her".

She shared the news in a since deleted tweet, in which she explained what Ioan had said as a reason for wanting to split.

Alice wrote at the time: "Sad news. My beloved husband/soulmate of 20 years, Ioan Gruffudd, has announced he is to leave his family, starting next week."

"Me and our young daughters girls are very confused and sad. We haven’t been given a reason except that he ‘no longer loves me.’ I’m so sorry," she added.

They have been married since 2007 and have two daughters, Ella, 11, and Elsie, seven, after meeting on the set of 102 Dalmatians in 2000.

Speaking about his decision, Ioan said: "Look, as I said before, it's an extremely difficult time for the family.

"Our thoughts are with our children obviously right now and I'd really respect a little bit of privacy right now, thank you."
