Yul Edochie Applauds Judy Austin's Support and Defends Her, Emphasizing His Nickname "Ijele Odogwu" as a Fitting Tribute

Actor Yul Edochie has come out to praise his second wife, Judy Austin, who on Friday, July 22, shared a video in which she slammed Nigerians accusing Yul of not mourning his first son, Kabilichukwu, enough.

Kambili sadly passed away in March this year. Yul has received bashing from some Nigerians on social media who believe he returned to the movie scene as well as social media too early after the teenager's death. They opined he should have mourned Kambili longer than he has.

In the video she released, Judy slammed his critics. She asked Nigerians to allow her husband to mourn his son however he wishes. She went on to ask his critics to wait until their own children die before they can start schooling others on how to mourn. Read here.

Many Nigerians including actor Uche Maduagwu have come out to slam Judy. They argue that she has no right to speak on the passing of Kambili who was born by May, Yul's first wife.

However, in a post shared on his Instagram page this afternoon, Yul praised Judy for her ‘’show of support' to him. He posted the video she shared on his page with the caption

‘’You’re not called Ijele Odogwu for nothing.

May the heavens reward and bless you.
