On Tuesday, August 1, 2023, a law firm identified as DPA revealed that actor Yul Edochie’s first wife, May, has filed for divorce against him and his second wife, Judy, on grounds of alleged adultery.
In a write-up posted on their Facebook page, the law firm stated that May Yul-Edochie has initiated a divorce petition against Yul and has cited Judy as a party involved. In the lawsuit, May is demanding N100 million in damages from Judy for adultery with her husband.
The situation is further complicated by the fact that Yul and Judy have been calling themselves husband and wife, despite May’s ongoing divorce proceedings. According to DPA, this is both a delusional and absurd claim, as Yul and Judy cannot legally be considered married until the divorce with May is finalized.
Both Yul and Judy have been made aware of the lawsuit, as they received copies of the court papers via email. However, they seem to be avoiding being served with the legal process. The court bailiff has reportedly attempted multiple times to deliver the documents following the rules of court, but Yul and Judy have been evading service.
The actor and his second wife are now facing serious legal challenges, and their evasion of the court process may have consequences in the proceedings ahead. As the situation unfolds, many are keeping a close eye on the developments in this high-profile divorce case.
