IOAN GRUFFUDD - GRUFFUDD THANKS DISNEY BOSSES FOR WEDDING GIFT EVANS

Welsh actor IOAN GRUFFUDD will be thanking Disney executives during his after-wedding speech later this year (07) because their predictions about his chemistry connections with bride-to-be ALICE EVANS were spot on. The movie star feels sure he would never have known actress Evans if movie bosses hadn't put them together in 102 DALMATIANS. He says, "Somebody at Disney thought we looked good together and they were right. That was seven years ago and we'll marry in September (07)." The two Brits plan to start married life together in Los Angeles. Gruffudd adds, "I think the wedding is going to be in L.A. or maybe down in Mexico because we're celebrating our new life out here."
