Veteran actor and producer, Yul Edochie, has welcomed a new baby with second wife, actress Judy Austin.
The actor disclosed this on his verified Instagram Page on Wednesday where he shared the picture of the newborn Star Dike.
Edochie wrote “It’s time for the world to meet my son. His name is Star Dike munachimso Yul Edochie. Born by my second wife @Judyaustin1. And I love him so much just as I love my other children.
Yul’s first wife, May Edochie reacting to the post wrote, “may God punish you both.”
However, the post of Edochie, who also has the intent to contest in the 2023 presidential election, has generated controversy on Twitter space.
As many said, he should forget about his presidential ambition
A user @Qutemerah1 said: Yul Edochie should kiss his political aspiration goodbye
- He is a Christian, second wife is a big NO
- If he can hurt a woman who has been with him when he has nothing, then, who are the masses?”
Others also blasted the actor for keeping a secret affair with his colleague Judy Austin without the first wife knowing.
A user @Isimaodeh said: “What Yul Edochie did to his wife is very unfair, as a man, you shouldn’t say woman should be okay with things like this, if you were to be in her shoes, how would you feel? It’s terrible.”
Another user @EvangkingsleyO said: “What this a secret marriage without the first wife knowledge? @YulEdochie you have broken.”
Edochie married his first wife, May Edochie, 17 years ago and are blessed with four children Dani, Kambi, Karl and Zane Edochie.
