Yul Edochie Denies Marriage to Judy, Says They are Skitmakers
Controversial actor, Yul Edochie, has stated that he is not married to his ‘second wife’, Judy Austin.
He made this statement in response to a lawsuit filed against him by his ex-wife, May Edochie.
May Edochie accused her husband of adultery and filed for divorce.
Yul told the court that his connection with Judy Austin was all about skitmaking.
He stated that there is no legally recognized union between them.
In a report by Premium Times, May’s legal team, led by Emeka Ugwuonye of Due Process Advocates, said in a statement that the ongoing case at the FCT High Court in Abuja, scheduled for a hearing on March 5, suffered an unexpected setback when the court session did not proceed, which Yul and Judy claimed credit for.
Ugwuonye said Yul wrote in his petition, “That since the news of the birth of Star in June 2021, Gistlover, as a negative blog that thrives in fake and manipulated information for financial gains, has been negatively exploiting every movie or skit featuring me and Judy and generating social media traffic for financial gains.”
He added that May’s petition mentioned a supposed traditional marriage ceremony between Yul and Judy on April 24, 2022, in Anambra State.
However, Yul refuted the claim, accusing a blogsite of spreading fake information for financial gain.
