May Edochie formally files for divorce from husband of 18yrs (SEE DETAILS)

A court sitting in Lagos today barred actor Yul Edochie from the mansion he once shared with his ex-wife, May Edochie after she filled for divorce officially.

Ms May, who has vehemently refused to be numbered as first or second wife allegedly began divorce proceedings against her estranged husband, Yul. 

It was also reported that Yul and his wife Judy Austin were disgraced at the court after both were chased out of the premises.

May and her counsel today July 10, visited a court to submit a petition for the dissolution of her 18-year-old marriage which Yul has refused to be served the originating summons sources said.

It could be recalled that the couple have been at 'war' with eachother since April over his decision to take actress, Judy Austin, as a second wife as he welcomed a son with her outside their wedlock.

 May , who was displeased with her husband's infidelity and choice of a second wife, in September 2022, released a statement expressing her disapproval. She stated that she had a stable and loving home prior to the unprecedented events regarding her marriage. She mentioned that polygamy is a life choice and that no one should be compelled to accept it. 

She stressed that some religions and traditions allow polygamy and that she has nothing against it but that as a person she will not be numbered or cajoled to accept a practice that does not align with her faith and family values.

Their divorce is coming few weeks after Yul showed no sign of mourning following the demise of their first son.

 The actor in recent times, has been widely criticized on social media for what many have described as ‘moving on so fast' after the death of his first son, Kambilichukwu, in March.

Some Nigerians had argued that the videos of him and Judy having great times together which he shares online suggests he has moved on already. 

They argue he has not mourned his son enough for him to be posting such ‘happy videos’ of himself and Judy.
