Oh, god, I'd forgotten about that! How he's on one side, talking about how he's still got church values (there's a word for it I can't remember -- Chapel? Parish? V. Welsh) and how he doesn't name girlfriends and being very respectfully polite, and then she comes blasting out of left field with tons of stuff that pretty much scuppered his wholesome reputation. And the Picasso stuff was what put everyone's back up if I remember rightly -- flags going up all over the shop because it seemed quite clear that she'd been timesharing for a bit, and was now ragging on Picasso. It's very possible that he was controlling and she was too young, but she went public with it. After cheating on him (allegedly)!
It would be hysterical if the fansites went all-out in "protecting" Alice. Never talk about her, cut her out of all premiere pictures, or if she's truly obtrusive (likely) then just photoshop her out. Including any wedding photos.
Some quotes:
She seriously has no idea how insane she sounds, does she? (And amusingly, the Ask.com entry is pulled from one of the semi-mischievous Wiki entries)

Ioan, how could you?
No, really.

As for Alice - she's all the worst things about Vergie Arthur, Heather Mills and a pitbull all rolled into one big fashion disaster. On behalf of my pitbull, I demand an apology! I occasionally go to IO, but to look for information on his friend, Matthew Rhys, so I've never really followed well the relationship between Ioan and Alice. I do get the idea that he's a man that could be easily swayed or controlled. I believe he told a story of how he almost became part of a religious cult when he was in his early twenties. It took his parents or his mother to yank him out and set him straight.

I'm still holding out hope that Matthew and Ioan will get together. I liked Ioan so much more when he was living with Matthew in Kilburn. And they made such an adorable couple in Very Annie Mary!

On the subject of Ioan's friends, and for that matter, his family members, I wonder how they all really feel toward Alice.

Oh, god, going through IMDB is the most hysterical thing. Damn them for allowing users to cover their tracks! Anyone know how to get the cached version of those exchanges?
As mentioned above, various people cottoned on to her and started quoting her... for posterity. And man, she got schooled (as anyone would, being aggressive on a thread dedicated to themselves, frankly):
It's fabulous, she argues in best seventh-grade manner. No wonder Ioan's regressed. Also featured: unattributed remarks that "We are monitoring you" and possibly something about someone having a gun?!
This has been excellent -- I was planning to go buy a book today, but instead, the psychotic mystery novel came to me. Hurrah! Also, considering Alice and Ioan seem to have kept the IMDB people hopping to delete posts, users, entire threads -- I wonder how many OTHER minor-leaguers do the same thing? Ah, to be a fly on the IMDB wall...

Wow, I loved the Hornblower movies, but not much that he's been in since. This is really sad. She seems vile, and if he's willing to put up with it, that doesn't speak well of him either. I think the crush is officially dead.

He's goodlooking. I hate to end a crush, but . . .

I'm still holding out hope that Matthew and Ioan will get together. If you only knew the hours I've passed dreaming of this, down to the smallest detail...
