“Alice now has a 100% custodial timeshare with the children. Alice has no way to financially support the children. She is behind on her rent and utility payments,” her filing read.

“Alice is applying for public assistance because she is unable to support herself and the children,” the filing continued. “It appears that the financial trial will be several months away and Alice will not be able to survive without the receipt of guideline spousal support.”

The document then called Gruffudd out on what she described as his “lavish lifestyle,” as compared to Evans' struggles to keep up with herself and her girls. “loan has the ability to pay spousal support based upon his greater ability to earn income and his ongoing lavish lifestyle. For these reasons, Alice requests guideline child and spousal support.”
