Veteran Nollywood actor, Pete Edochie has finally opened up about his son, Yul Edochie, marrying a second wife, Judy Austin Muoghalu.
Yul Edochie Breaks Silence On Yul’s Second Marriage To Judy Austin
KanyiDaily recalls that in April, Edochie unveiled his second wife, Judy Austin, and their baby despite still being married to his first wife, May Aligwe, for 17 years with four kids.
Edochie’s revelation triggered a lot of mixed reactions on social media, with his first wife slamming him saying “May God judge you both.”
The actor has made several attempts to make peace with his first wife, but May debunked any hope of reconciliation, stressing that her family and faith do not support polygamy.
Speaking for the first time about the issue during an interview with Vanguard, Pete Edochie said that he didn’t feel good about his son’s decision to take another wife
The actor, however, said he would not fault his son because Solomon in the bible also had numerous wives and concubines.
When asked about what he felt about Yul picking a second wife, Pete said: “I didn’t feel good, but like I said I’m a Christian and I read the Bible. Solomon, with 700 wives and 300 concubines, was branded a man of wisdom. it’s his choice and for whatever reason he decided to take a second wife, that’s all I can say.”
KanyiDaily recalls that Yul Edochie was recently spotted for the first time with his first wife, May Aligwe, since they started having marital issues over his second wife, Judy Austin.
