Yul Edochie Blocks Journalist Stella Dimoko Korkus Over May Edochie Posts
Nollywood actor Yul Edochie has reportedly blocked prominent journalist Stella Dimoko Korkus across Instagram and other social media platforms. This dramatic move came after the media personality made a series of posts celebrating Yul's estranged wife, May Edochie, during her recent vacation in Ghana.
Stella Dimoko Korkus Responds to Social Media Block
Reacting to the unexpected block, Stella took to her social media page to express her thoughts. She wrote that her posts seemed to "attack him and the Alsatian dog who has been defending him like a temu activist." In a sharp remark, she added:
"Can he complete the circle by asking Mr Obasi's ex-wife Judy Austin to block Stella as well? Stella will not stop making posts on both of them cos it's her job she is doing and her disagreeing with their bullsheet is fine... Mrs Judy Austin Obasi Edochie should please block Stella too... They can send their attack dogs to make her page interesting but Stella won't be responding to them."
The journalist emphasised that she would continue to share her views on the actor and his family drama, insisting that her commentary is part of her professional duty as a media personality covering entertainment news.
Netizens React to the Social Media Drama
Social media users have been reacting strongly to Yul Edochie's decision to block the journalist. Many comments suggest the actor is still affected by his divorce from May Edochie, which was finalized in January 2026. One user commented:
"I think Yul is not totally healed because you can never see May blocking people like this. Means he is still so pained for the divorce."
Another user noted: "This just means they are the reason blogs don't carry May's achievements." Several comments referenced the custody arrangement from the divorce, with one user stating: "May was given the house and full physical and legal custody of her children."
Background of the Ongoing Family Drama
This incident comes amid ongoing public interest in Yul Edochie's family situation. The actor has been in the spotlight since his marriage to Judy Austin while still married to May Edochie, which eventually led to divorce proceedings. Many Nigerians continue to sympathize with May Edochie, who has maintained a dignified public presence throughout the ordeal.
Previously, Yul Edochie publicly praised his second wife, Judy Austin, calling her a blessing to his life. This declaration drew criticism from netizens who felt the timing was insensitive while divorce proceedings with May were ongoing. Angry fans claimed the actress' presence had negatively impacted Yul's public image and brought what they described as "bad energy" to the respected Edochie family name.
Professional Implications for Entertainment Journalism
The blocking of a journalist by a public figure raises questions about access and professional relationships in Nigeria's entertainment industry. Stella Dimoko Korkus has stated she will continue her coverage despite the social media block, highlighting the tension between celebrity privacy and media scrutiny in the digital age.
This incident demonstrates how personal conflicts between public figures and media professionals can play out publicly on social media platforms, creating additional layers of drama that extend beyond the original family situation.
