In a sight that will break the hearts of his female fans, Ioan Gruffudd has been showing the world that fiancée Alice Evans is the only girl for him. On a visit to London the Fantastic Four actor could hardly keep his eyes off his love of six years.

The pair, who have a home in Los Angeles, were spotted strolling around Shepherd's Market in the capital's Mayfair area. Laughing and chatting constantly as they wandered around the upmarket shopping district, Alice and Ioan looked the picture of happiness.

The dashing Welshman popped the question during a New Year's Eve holiday to Cuba. He stunned the 102 Dalmatians actress by serving her up a diamond ring in a mojito cocktail.

"It took me an hour to say yes," said Alice. "I'd had a few and I could see Ioan going whiter and whiter. I said, 'Do you fancy another?', then looked down and was like, 'Oh my God!'. He said, 'How could you miss it? It's about the size of an aeroplane'."

Ioan will have to get his skates on if he wants to make her the new Mrs Gruffudd this year, as in summer he'll be tied up shooting the sequel to Fantastic Four.
