Nollywood actress Sarah Martins has taken a strong stance against fellow actor Yul Edochie following his recent remarks about his ex-wife, May Edochie. The controversy erupted after Yul appeared on The Honest Bunch Podcast, where he made comments that many listeners interpreted as references to his former marriage.
During the podcast, Yul hinted that certain events occurred while he and May were still married, suggesting that these moments influenced the decisions he later made. However, he refrained from elaborating further, leaving the audience with unanswered questions.
Yul's Podcast Remarks
In the interview, the controversial actor acknowledged that he has accepted being perceived as the villain in the story. He also expressed genuine goodwill toward May, stating that he wants her to prosper because she remains the mother of his children. Nonetheless, he alluded to undisclosed incidents in their marriage that he has chosen not to discuss publicly, claiming he is “too much of a man” to break down over personal matters online.
Sarah Martins' Reaction
Reacting to the interview, Sarah Martins took to her Instagram story to highlight what she described as irony in Yul's words. She pointed out that he claimed to wish May well while simultaneously making statements that could sow doubt in people's minds about her character.
Sarah wrote: “You wish her well, but you granted the podcast the power to sow doubt in people’s minds by saying she did something that led you to do what you did, but you won’t say it.”
She further accused Yul of being uncomfortable with May's continued growth and public support, stating: “Oga, you’re just pained that she’s doing well!” Sarah also questioned the purpose of the interview, suggesting that jealousy may have played a role.
Background on the Feud
The ongoing saga surrounding the Edochie family has been a topic of public interest for some time. Yul Edochie's decision to take a second wife, Judy Austin, while still married to May, sparked widespread debate. His recent podcast appearance has reignited discussions about the dissolution of his first marriage.
Yul's Tribute to Late Son
In a separate revelation, Yul Edochie shared emotional details about the last moments with his late son, Kambilichukwu Edochie, who died tragically in 2023. The actor recalled that his son came into his room early in the morning before leaving for school, and they spent time talking, laughing, and joking in a typical father-son interaction.
Sarah Martins' sharp response has added another twist to the long-running conversation around the Edochie family, drawing attention to the complexities of public declarations versus private actions.
