Veteran Nollywood actor, Pete Edochie, has appeared to have responded to the controversy surrounding his son, Yul Edochie’s marriage to his second wife, Judy Austin.
This follows reports that Yul’s first wife, May, has officially filed for divorce and she is seeking 100 million naira in damages from Yul and Judy over alleged adultery. She also filed a restraining order preventing Yul from entering their former marital home.
Ever since going public with their marriage and announcing the birth of their child last year, Yul Edochie and Judy Austin have been the subject of heated debate and criticism on social media.
The 40-year-old actor has continued to face criticism over his actions and social media posts following the tragic death of his first son, Kambili, with his first wife.
During a recent interview with media personality, Chude Jideonwo, Pete Edochie indirectly spoke through a proverb about his son’s marriage saga.
The veteran actor claimed that Yul drew all the negativity upon himself by bringing “Contaminated Firewood” into his home, citing Judy Austin.
In his words, “He who goes to the farm and gets ant-infested firewoods (amongst all the good firewoods in the farm) shouldn’t be surprised when Lizards start paying him a visit.”
