It comes after Bianca hit back at speculation she is pregnant after she stood out in a white illusion dress.
The actress, 31, took to Instagram to share a beaming selfie in a pretty white summer dress, with the caption that she was “a happy girl living a happy life.”
However, Bianca later shared a comment in which she replied to another user, saying she had been ‘inundated’ with messages asking if she was expecting.
She noted that her white pinstripe dress “gave her bump that illusion” and clarified that she was not pregnant.
Bianca captioned her post: ‘Just a happy, happy-living girl.’
A fan then said: ‘I had a dream that you are pregnant and that you and Ioan have a beautiful little girl.’
Bianca then replied: ‘That’s a cute dream, I got absolutely crushed in my inbox this morning by people asking me if that’s me!
‘Apparently the lines on my dress give my stomach that illusion! It’s just the dress!’
Bianca has been in a relationship with Liar star Ioan since 2021, after splitting from his wife Alice Evans in March that year.
The Ny Breaking reported earlier this month that Alice is in dire financial trouble – and has told friends she can’t pay her rent or afford food, and is considering taking a job at Starbucks.
Alice announced in January 2021 that Ioan was leaving her after twenty years of marriage and in October of that year he went public with Bianca.
She has told friends that the money she got from the sale of the marital home, believed to be $100,000, is all gone, much of it to lawyers, and that she is now in financial crisis.
A friend said: ‘Alice is extremely upset and says she can’t afford the rent when it’s due later this month – at least not if they want to eat – and has just hit a financial low. She says she has nothing, not even health insurance.”

They continued: ‘She has been told to get a job, but she has not found any acting work and in any case she has to look after their school-age children.
“This week she talked about getting a job at Starbucks, but she thinks they might not want her because at 55 she’s probably too old for them. Also, her agent doesn’t want her to do it, in case it looks bad.”
The friend added: “She feels desperate and has no idea how to get along. She cried herself to sleep.’
She and Gruffudd eventually divorced in July this year, but custody, spousal support and child support are still to be settled and the next hearing in the case will take place in March next year.
The ex-couple share daughters Ella, 14, and Elsie, 10.
The outing also comes amid news that the Fantastic Four is a star will reunite with his daughters at least once a week after claiming his ex-wife had kept the girls away from him for almost a year.
In new court filings obtained by DailyMail.com, a judge ordered Evans to take the girls to weekly “reunification therapy” sessions with their father.
And Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Josh Stinn also ruled that the feuding former couple could not trash or insult each other in front of their children during therapy sessions.
According to court papers, the two girls now use the surname Griffith, the Anglicized version of their Welsh father’s surname.
Gruffudd, who met Evans when they starred together in the 2000 Disney film 102 Dalmatians, filed for divorce in March 2021, shortly after the blonde actress claimed on social media that her husband of 14 years left her and their two daughters. .
Evans announced on Twitter in January 2021: “Sad news. My beloved husband/soulmate of 20 years, Ioan Gruffudd, has announced that he will be leaving his family from next week.
‘Me and our young daughters are very confused and sad. We weren’t given a reason other than he “no longer loves me”. I’m very sorry.’
Alice announced in January 2021 that Ioan was leaving her after twenty years of marriage and in October that year he went public with Bianca.
Gruffudd, known for the ITV drama Liar and the Fantastic Four film, went public in October 2021 with new girlfriend Bianca, an aspiring actress who starred as an extra in the drama Harrow which was filmed in Australia.
They now live together in Los Angeles, while Evans lives with their daughters Elsie and Ella.
In June 2022, she launched a Go Fund Me page asking for $25,000 to try to pay her bills, saying, “I never thought in a million years I would be doing this.” But in August 2020, just as the pandemic was really taking hold, my whole world came crashing down.
‘Since that date, I have struggled not only as a single mother with my babies, but also with paying bills, food, and legal fees (ha! don’t even talk to me about legal fees), which has pushed all other expenses in my life into it doesn’t fall. life and ended up emptying everything: savings, bills, retirement, everything.
‘Yesterday all my bills were gone and I couldn’t buy anything. The same day, my husband’s lawyer sent me a letter telling me to appear in court on August 2 to plead “my case” in the divorce. I currently have no lawyer and no money to pay for one.
“If I don’t come to court, I will be held in contempt, and I have no idea what will happen to me or my children at that point.”
