In addition to filing a divorce petition against her spouse, Yul Edochie, and demanding a sum of N100 million from his second spouse, Judy Austin, May Edochie has also requested a restraining order to prevent him from accessing their former matrimonial home.
May Edochie, who is being represented by Femi Falana and Eculaw group, provided an update on the couple’s marital crisis, indicating that Judy and Yul have knowledge of the legal action as they have received copies of the lawsuit via email.
The mother of three has sought a court order to prohibit Yul from entering the former matrimonial home, citing concerns for her safety and claiming that the movie star has been displaying erratic, irrational, aggressive, and increasingly threatening behavior.
She alleged that Yul behaves as if he is “under some influence, the full extent or scope of which we are yet to ascertain”.
May recounted an incident where Yul was stopped from entering their home by security officials last week, who informed him that all issues regarding their marriage and related matters are now under judicial consideration. The mother of three, who tragically lost her son a few months ago, has taken measures to safeguard herself and her children.
Yul has now been advised to consult a lawyer, if and when he chooses to hire one, and follow the guidance of such a legal professional.

Reports circulated on Tuesday that May Yul Edochie has filed a N100m lawsuit against his second wife, Judy Austin.
