Bianca Wallace and Ioan Gruffudd have unveiled the cherished mementos they took home following the birth of their first child together.

The couple joyfully announced the arrival of their daughter, Mila, on Thanksgiving. The announcement revealed that Bianca, at 33, had quietly welcomed their baby girl on November 2.

The news took fans by surprise, as the birth occurred a month earlier than expected.

To mark the occasion, Bianca shared a heartfelt Instagram post featuring a photo of her sharing a kiss with Ioan, 52, from her hospital bed. The post also included an image of keepsakes crafted by Juliane Corona’s Mommy Me Encapsulation.

This unique brand specializes in placenta encapsulation, a process where the placenta is dehydrated, ground into powder, and transformed into capsules.

While there are no proven medical benefits to eating the organ – whether in the form of freeze dried capsules, roasted, or blended raw into a smoothie – many believe it can replenish a woman’s iron levels after giving birth.

Julia captioned the clip: ‘Where her journey started… turned into a keepsake she’ll treasure forever.

‘The umbilical cord is the very first connection between a mother and her baby — the lifeline that nourished, protected, and carried them through every moment of pregnancy.

‘Creating this keepsake is always such an honor, but doing it for Cardi and her sweet baby again means the world to us.

‘Turning something so meaningful into a piece that can be held, remembered, and cherished forever is one of the most special parts of what we do.’

Bianca and Ioan, who first went public with their relationship in 2021 and announced their engagement three years later, revealed their baby news on Instagram. 

The actress wrote: ‘November was a biggie…  Name: Mila Mae Gruffudd. Birth date: 2 November 2025. Due date: 2 December 2025.

‘Bubba Bear and Rocky: Absolutely smitten. Daddy & Mummy: Completely and totally in love with our tiny little angel. Extremely grateful this thanksgiving.’ 

Ioan is already a proud dad to two children, Ella, 15, and Elsie, 11 with ex-wife Alice Evans, who he divorced over two years ago.

The exes officially ended their marriage after a bitter court battle and vicious custody row over their daughters.

Hollywood star Ioan also obtained a restraining order in 2022 against Alice. 

He blasted Alice for allegedly getting Ella to file her own restraining order against him – and for stopping their two daughters from going to therapy.

The post came weeks after Bianca insisted she never had an affair with Ioan as she accused his ex Alice of fabricating the ‘disgusting, vile story’.

The former couple are currently in a bitter legal battle and Alice, 56, accused her ex of cheating on her for three years with Bianca, who is 18 years his junior.

Bianca recently responded to the accusations as she revealed she did not have an affair with Ioan after receiving threats towards her unborn baby from trolls.

Taking to Instagram with a screenshot of some of the hate she has received, Bianca called the affair accusations ‘pathetic’ and ‘utterly ridiculous’.

She penned: ‘I have ignored this truly pathetic narrative for nearly 4 years now because of how utterly ridiculous and clearly insane it is.

‘But threaten my innocent, unborn baby and the time for ignoring is up! Absolutely no one will ever threaten my baby over a made up story about an affair that literally never happened! No way.’

Since Ioan and Bianca went public with their relationship, Alice has openly hit out at their relationship on social media and claimed the pair had been embroiled in a three-year affair.

Back in 2022 Bianca posted a snap of her and Ioan holding hands which Alice branded ‘sick’ and ‘evil’ and claimed seeing the image was like a ‘stake in the heart’.

Responding to Alice’s claims directly in her post, Bianca continued: ‘In October 2021 my husband’s ex made up a disgusting, vile story about my husband and I having an affair.

‘For 3 years and 9 months the narrative as been ongoing, making people like “rivqah2020” message me, and now my unborn baby, threats like this.

‘The TRUTH has been set in black and white, in clear evidence, under oath numerous times, and all available in public record.’

She added: ‘I will not have my innocent baby born into this completely intentional manufactured drama. This has all got to end now, and it needs to end with the truth and facts.

‘My husband and I haven’t deserved one second of this, and now, our unborn baby is being threatened and attacked. Absolutely no f*****g way!

‘I know that I speak for so many people out there who have lived through this kind of abuse, lies and manipulation when I say we are all sick and tired of the b******t now.’
