The actor Linc Edochie has expressed his opinions about his brother Yul’s choice to take a second wife and continuously show her off on social media.
The seasoned actor Pete Edochie is the father of Linc and Yul.
When Yul revealed Judy Austin as his second wife in April 2022, people were taken aback. In addition, he revealed their first child together, much to the chagrin of his first wife, May.
Actor Kanayo O. Kanayo questioned Yul’s desire to openly flaunt his second marriage in the most recent episode of the “KOK Live” podcast. He also asked Linc about the position of their family.
“Your brother Yul Edochie went to get another wife. He has been on social media raving about and people are asking ‘are you the first Nigerian to take a second or third wife?’” Kanayo said.
“How do you feel? How does your family feel about this?”
Linc responded, “What’s done is done… My father always says, ‘Take your marriage off social media’”.
The actor cautioned that the people praising Yul would quickly turn against him if issues arose in his second marriage.
“Everybody has the right to live as they choose. If a certain decision could hurt someone very close to you, you must think about it over and over again. We are Africans and a people of culture to do extravagant weddings,” he said.
“But sometimes it might be with the consent of the people you are with. But there is something my father keeps saying that I also say is ‘take your marriage off social media’. People need to realize this. The moment there is a glitch somewhere, the people who praised you will ‘bury you alive’,” he said.
“If there is something people love about a hero is to see a hero fall or die trying. None of us is a hero. Be mindful of what you put out there. What you do not know you cannot ruin.”
