Yul Edochie Speaks on His Ex-Wife May for the First Time
Nollywood actor Yul Edochie has broken his silence regarding his ex-wife, May Edochie, sharing his heartfelt wishes for her during an appearance on the Honest Bunch Podcast. The actor, who publicly announced his marriage to a second wife, leading to the dissolution of his long-term marriage, addressed the rumors and gossip surrounding their separation.
During the podcast, Edochie stated that both he and May are fully aware of the reasons behind their marital breakdown. He emphasized that they have both moved on and are in a good place emotionally. The actor dismissed claims that he wishes ill for his ex-wife, asserting that he wants nothing but the best for her.
“I can't come out now, set a camera and begin to tell people that in 1992, she was here. I be man oo, e get some kind things wey man no dey do. Leave women to do the talking; the most important thing is that we are both fine,” Edochie said. “Nobody is perfect, I won't want to go into that. If na whether things happen, things happened, gist dey, but I go hold man. I be man, I be real man. I go set the camera and finish my ex-wife? No. I wish her well.”
He continued: “I wish her the very best, I want her to be fine. A lot of people on social media are writing that I didn't want her to progress; that is all nonsense. The last thing that I will ever do is to plan evil for anybody. I am a traditional man. I wish her the very best. Both of us know the things wey lead to certain things, I won't go into all that. That is the mother of my three children. Any good thing wey go reach am, make e reach am.”
