Nollywood actor Yul Edochie reportedly refuted claims of being married to Judy Austin during the ongoing divorce proceedings with his former wife, May Edochie.
Amid the divorce action initiated by his first wife, Yul asserted in court that May is his sole spouse, raising eyebrows with this revelation.
May Edochie had initiated the divorce, citing infidelity, and sought N100 million in damages from Judy Austin. She also pursued a restraining order to prevent Yul from accessing their former marital home, expressing concerns for her and their children’s safety. May successfully secured full custody of their children.
Yul's denial of marriage to Judy Austin in the court session has left many bewildered, adding a surprising twist to the ongoing legal dispute.
Blogger Cutie Juls, closely monitoring the case, reported that Judy Austin concurred with Yul’s statement, asserting that they are not married.
Yul and Judy expressed astonishment upon discovering the alleged online reports of their marriage and vehemently rejected the accuracy of such claims circulating on blogs.
May, seeking legal protection for herself and their children, had previously obtained a restraining order to bar Yul from their former marital residence, emphasizing concerns for their safety.
