It is the latest extraordinary development in a domestic drama that began when Gruffudd left his then-wife Evans in 2021 after 14 years of marriage.
Gruffudd, the British star of ITV’s Liar and The Fantastic Four, and Evans, star of 102 Dalmatians, have been in a bitter divorce battle.
He has already issued a restraining order against his estranged wife, barring her from mentioning him on social media for three years.
Both are seeking custody of the children and both say they have no money.
Last month, the $2 million Los Angeles marital home was sold at Gruffudd’s request after he said he no longer had the money to pay for it.
Evans and the children moved to a new, rented address.
Gruffudd met aspiring actress Wallace in Australia while filming the series Harrow.
They now live together in Los Angeles and Wallace, who has multiple sclerosis, recently gave a magazine interview about her condition and “Yo’s” support and love for her.

Gruffudd filed for joint custody of his two daughters last July, after Evans sought sole custody during their acrimonious divorce
He and Evans announced their marriage was over in January 2021 and he went public with his new romance in October.
Gruffudd filed for joint custody of his two daughters last July after Evans filed for sole custody during their acrimonious divorce.
In addition to applying for visitation rights, he claimed in the filing that Evans had deliberately tried to cut off communication between him and his children.
He also petitioned that the girls attend personal therapy and reunion therapy via Zoom with him pending court-ordered custody mediation.
In lawsuits, Gruffudd accused Evans of verbally abusing him during their marriage and of “undermining” him all their lives in front of the girls.”
“Alice often joked about my appearance, made comments about hair loss and told me I had ‘drooping vagina eyes,'” the court read.
He further claimed that Evans “caused serious emotional damage to Ella and Elsie by her statements and by interfering in my relationship with them.”
In March of this year, allegations that Evans violated her restraining order were dropped.
Gruffudd is currently filming Bad Boys 4 starring Will Smith and Martin Lawrence. His team did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
