Ioan Gruffudd “Fantastic Four” Movie Advice
Ioan Gruffudd is feeling fantastic about this life update.
The Fantastic Four alum and his wife Bianca Wallace had a lot to be thankful for this Thanksgiving, as the couple shared that they welcomed a baby girl named Mila Mae Gruffudd on Nov. 2.
“November was a biggie,” the duo wrote in a joint Instagram post on Nov. 27, adding that Mila was born one month before her Dec. 2 due date and that their pets Bubba Bear and Rocky are, “absolutely smitten.”
And the two are equally obsessed with their baby girl, writing, “Completely and totally in love with our tiny little angel. Extremely grateful this thanksgiving.”
Ioan, 54, and Bianca, 33, shared the news alongside several sweet snaps, including one of the duo sharing a kiss at the hospital, a preemie onesie, colorful flowers, and even a gold umbilical cord—much like the one Cardi B recently had made.
The couple—who tied the knot in April—announced that they were expecting their first baby together in June, saying in a joint caption, “Baby Gruffudd poppin’ out to say hello!”
But Bianca had a rough time during her pregnancy, writing in the comments, “It has not been smooth. WTF is up with pregnancy?!”

“Why doesn’t anyone talk about how terrible it is in the first few months?!” she continued. “I am, however, in total and full remission and loving every single second of it.”
The Seven Snipers actress was also excited about how their dog Bubba reacted to her pregnancy, saying, “Bubba knew immediately, and he spends a lot of time sleeping with his head on my belly. Already the protector.”

While Mila is the first baby for Ioan and Bianca, the Harrow alum is also dad to daughters Ella, 15, and Elsie, 11, whom he shares with ex-wife Alice Evans. The former couple filed for divorce in 2021 after 13 years of marriage.
