May Edochie, estranged wife of Nollywood actor Yul Edochie, has clarified her stance amid rising tensions in her divorce proceedings. Speaking publicly, May addressed a misconception among some people who believe she's influencing women toward divorce. She firmly stated that while she encourages personal empowerment, she does not advocate for divorce or separation.
May filed for divorce from Yul following his announcement of a second marriage to actress Judy Austin in 2022, an event that caused public backlash and strained the Edochies' marriage. In addition to the divorce, May is reportedly seeking damages for adultery from Judy.
The ongoing court proceedings have been marked by multiple delays, most recently due to the absence of Yul's lawyer, prolonging an already complex and emotionally charged case. May has emphasized her need for justice and protection for herself and her children, highlighting the toll the situation has taken on her family.
