Nollywood actress Judy Austin has ignited a fresh wave of online discussion after making a significant change to her Instagram profile. The star, who celebrated her birthday on December 31, 2025, updated her bio to once again include the name of her husband, actor Yul Edochie.
A Bio Update Sparks Fan Curiosity
This move comes as a reversal of her previous action, where she had removed Yul's name from her social media profile months ago. That earlier deletion had fueled widespread speculation among fans and followers about a potential rift in their much-publicised marriage. The timing of the recent update, coinciding with her birthday celebrations and the dawn of the New Year 2026, has captured significant attention.
Yul Edochie's Heartfelt Birthday Tribute
The bio change follows a public display of affection from Yul Edochie himself. On Wednesday, December 31, the actor took to social media to debunk rumours of marital crisis by posting a heartwarming video from his wife's birthday shoot. In a lengthy and affectionate caption, he showered Judy with prayers and love.
He referred to her with numerous loving epithets and expressed his desire for them to have three more children together. "May your new age be filled with countless blessings... and give me three more beautiful children. Love you forever," he wrote, directly addressing the separation rumours that had been circulating online.
Judy's New Year Declaration of Love
Judy Austin also contributed to quelling the rumours with a dedicated New Year message to her husband. In an Instagram post featuring new photos of the couple, she offered prayers of gratitude and protection for the coming year. In a special note to Yul, whom she called her "king," Judy made a profound statement.
She declared that if she could live her life again, she would have found him sooner to love him longer. She praised him for making the world a better place and expressed gratitude for his love. The actress boldly proclaimed that the new year would be their best yet and prayed for God to "announce" Yul "royally."
Context and Previous Advice
The couple's relationship has been under intense public scrutiny since Yul Edochie made Judy his second wife. The speculation reached a peak when he temporarily stopped posting videos with her and commenting on her social media pages, leading many to believe they had parted ways.
In related news, Judy Austin had previously advised married women and single mothers against pressuring their husbands for extravagant Christmas spending. She encouraged contentment and celebrating within means, framing the festive period as just another normal week.
With the latest social media update and their mutual, affectionate posts, Judy Austin and Yul Edochie appear to be presenting a united front as they step into 2026, aiming to silence the gossip and focus on their family.
