Nollywood Actor, Yul Edochie Reveals Why He Stopped Posting His Children With Estranged Wife, May On Social Media

Nollywood actor and filmmaker Yul Edochie has dismissed claims suggesting a strained relationship with his three children from his estranged wife, May Edochie.

Yul, in an interview on the KaaTruths podcast, clarified that he has a cordial relationship with his other children.

Yul revealed that failure to post the children on social media is because of a court order barring him from doing so, due to his ongoing divorce case with his estranged wife.

The movie star emphasised that he is still in contact with his children and often fulfill his financial obligations.

Yul also disclosed that he recently chatted with his son, who informed him about his matriculation into a university, but he could not attend the event because he was not informed in time.

He said, “The reason why I don’t post anything about my kids with May is not because I don’t have a good relationship with them but because there’s a court order that says we must stop posting our kids.

“The fact of the matter is that I’m still in contact with my children and I still send my son money through their mother.” 

When asked if he was honest with his estranged wife during their marriage, Yul said, “The main issue is not on social media.

“I would rather not say anything. I don’t want to say my ex-wife did this, my ex-wife did that. Real men don’t tackle issues like that. It is all family stuff , nobody is perfect.”

May Yul-Edochie Sues Yinka Theisen, Demands N1.5 Billion For Defamation

May Yul-Edochie, the estranged wife of Nollywood actor Yul Edochie has sued a United States-based woman, Yinka Theisen.
She accused Yinka of alleged cyberbullying and online defamation.
She also filed a lawsuit against her former lawyer, Emeka Ugwuonye.
Speaking through her legal representatives, Graylaw Partners, she accused both parties of publishing damaging content about her across social media platforms such as X, Instagram, and Facebook.
According to her, the posts have tarnished her reputation and affected her business interests.
Her lawyers issued separate cease-and-desist letters to Ugwuonye and Theisen, demanding that they remove all defamatory posts, issue a public apology, and publish retractions on the platforms where the statements were made.
In addition, she is demanding financial compensation of N1 billion from Ugwuonye and N500 million from Theisen.
The notice sent to Ugwuonye accused him of mishandling privileged information obtained during his past dealings with her, saying his conduct worsened the situation and exposed her to further harm.
The letter to Theisen alleged that she amplified false narratives about May online and encouraged others to spread them, thereby deepening the damage to her image.
Both parties were given a 48-hour deadline to meet the demands.
Her lawyers stated that failure to comply would lead to civil and criminal action aimed at protecting her rights and restoring her reputation.
