Ioan Gruffudd's wife has claimed she is being mentally tortured by the actor, after revealing he's 'leaving the family next week' following 13 years of marriage. Alice Evans, 49, (pictured, left, with Ioan in 2018) took to Twitter on Monday to share the 'sad news' (top, right), stating the Welsh star, 47, said he 'no longer loves her' and has left her young daughters, Ella, 11, and Elsie, seven, (inset) feeling 'very sad'. In a twist in the tale however, the statement was later deleted, with Alice alleging in a tweet hours later (bottom, right) that it was her husband who had taken to her account and removed the message

Her skeletal remains were discovered near a baseball field in 1984. Stephens' bone samples were sent to labs for DNA extraction and sequencing last year. DNA Doe Project then entered Stephens' DNA information into a genealogy website, allowing researchers to build out her family tree and locate her parents.

Vanessa Bryant has admitted losing her daughter Gianna and husband Kobe in a tragic helicopter crash 'still doesn't feel real' one year on.  Heartbroken Vanessa, 38, revealed she had received a beautifully written letter from one of 13-year-old Gigi's best friends, Aubrey, and wrote in the caption: 'My Gigi is INCREDIBLE and I truly appreciate your thoughtful letter. 'She loves you so much. I miss my baby girl and Kob-Kob so much, too. [heart emoji] I will never understand why/how this tragedy could've happened to such beautiful, kind and amazing human beings. It still doesn't seem real.

On Monday, California lifted regional stay-at-home orders in favor of county-by-county restrictions and ended a 10pm curfew. The lifting of the stay-at-home order allows restaurants and churches to resume outdoor operations and hair and nail salons to reopen in many areas. The state is also lifting a 10pm to 5am curfew and most California counties will return to the most restrictive tier for determining what businesses can be open. Some local health officials are worried the relaxation could undo the recent sharp drop in cases and hospitalizations.

In an interview with All In With Chris Hayes on MSNBC on Monday (as pictured left), Olivia Troye, who served as Pence's homeland security advisor and the lead staffer on the White House coronavirus task force, revealed she was asked to spy on ex-coronavirus task force coordinator Dr Deborah Birx. It is not known who asked her to monitor Birx. She said that Birx (pictured top right) was thought 'not to be trusted' as she had been hired by Matt Pottinger, Trump's deputy national security adviser. She also backed up Birx's claims that the president was presented with fake charts and graphs by an unknown person within the White House. Troye, a lifelong Republican, left the White House in August and revealed she would be voting for Joe Biden. She did not vote for Trump in 2016 and has been highly critical of his response to the pandemic since leaving Mike Pence's team. Pence's national security adviser accused her of being a disgruntled employee and claimed that she was let go in August because 'she was no longer capable of keeping up with her day-to-day duties'.

Members of the White River First Nation, near the border with Alaska, have told of their anger at the Bakers' behavior.

Song Yoo-jung died on Saturday and a small funeral was held in accordance with her family's wishes, her agency confirmed on Monday (pictured: the actress's final post on Instagram, left; and posing for a shoot in 2014, right). Yoo-jung made her name with a starring role in TV drama Make A Wish and won lucrative commercial deals with cosmetics company Estee Lauder and American ice cream chain Baskin-Robbins. Her death yet again raises concerns about the intense glare of the limelight in Korea's television and K-Pop culture, particularly for young women who are picked up by agencies at a young age and face vicious shaming on social media.

But many others protested the public holiday, taking to the streets to rally across the country against the day's colonial associations.

King Maha Vajiralongkorn, 68, and Sineenat Wongvajirapakdi, 36, wore matching blue coats as they took part in a Buddhist ceremony to mark the occasion at Waskuri pier in Bangkok. It's an astonishing rise for the king's fifth wife who was thrown out of the palace and jailed for trying to block her rival Queen Suditha's coronation in 2019. Last month a trove of naked selfies of Sineenat were leaked online, revealing the bitter infighting which still rages at court among the king's harem of mistresses. Just three months prior to Sineenat's imprisonment she had been appointed Vajiralongkorn's royal consort - the first to hold the title in almost a century.

Nia Dennis, 21, is a senior at the University of California, Los Angeles, and is one of the leading stars of the college's gymnastics team. On Saturday, the UCLA Bruins clinched a victory against Arizona State, which was sealed by Dennis's near-perfect 9.95 score on the floor exercise.

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray was ejected after what appeared to be an intentional shot to the groin area of Dallas' Tim Hardaway Jr. in the second half of their game on Monday night. Murray stumbled backward after the pair collided as Denver was setting up on offense. Murray got up and reached between Hardaway's legs with his right arm, prompting Hardaway to double over. The official closest to the contact blew the whistle to stop play with 4:51 left in the third quarter and conferred with the other referees. The initial call was a foul on Murray, and it was upgraded to a flagrant-two foul on a video review. Murray had 16 points when he was ejected, his same team-leading total from halftime. Malone said he asked crew chief Zach Zarba for an explanation, and Zarba told him the replay was 'fairly obvious.' 'There was a lot of physicality between those two,' Malone said. 'They came out very aggressive in the third quarter, which we knew they would. Hopefully it's nothing more than Jamal getting ejected tonight and we can just use it as a learning experience.' The Nuggets led 80-73 when the game was stopped, and Hardaway scored the next seven points in just 23 seconds to get the Mavericks even before they went on to take their first lead since early in the first quarter. Denver won 117-113.

The footage of six-month-old Fu Bao wrapping her arms needily around the zookeeper's legs at the Everland Zoo in South Korea has gone viral with over four million people watching it on YouTube since it was posted last month. Members of the public have been able to see baby Fu Bao, who is the first Chinese giant panda born in South Korea, since January at Everland Zoo in Yongin, a region 25 miles southeast of Seoul. Everland has been posting adorable videos of the cub on their social media channels since she was born in July last year.

Mae Archie (left and right) told TikTok she had left an exhibition about The Beatles in New York when she decided to take a quick photograph while strolling across a crosswalk. But it wasn't until she arrived back home that she looked at the picture and noticed something unexpected - claiming Sir Paul McCartney was photobombing her (right). Explaining what happened, Mae admitted that she is a huge fan of The Beatles but didn't notice Paul as she was facing her mother to pose for the snap. The picture was fittingly taken while Mae was on a crosswalk, with the Beatles star unintentionally recreating the famous Abbey Road album cover. She said that she made eye contact with Paul at the time but could not place why he looked familiar, claiming he 'winked' at her before walking away.

Villagers called the officers for help on Sunday after a group of elephants entered their land to look for food in Nakhon Nayok province, Thailand. Two brave wildlife officers tried to drive the animals away but one of the jumbos was furious at being disturbed during his meal. It turned and charged at the two men. The wild elephant, which is known by the name of Sarika, stopped running after the officers when it saw they were retreating but kept its eye on them in case they returned.

The stag was spotted wandering around a square in the town of Villetta Barrea, in the National Park of Abruzzo, Italy, last week when it accidentally got its antlers entangled on a string of Christmas tree lights. Unable to free itself, a park guard and a vet quickly arrived to tranquillise the animal before freeing it from the lights. Maria Spina, who recorded the footage, said they watched the stag to make sure it was awake and well before letting it walk off into the surrounding woods.
