May Yul Edochie, estranged wife of Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie has threatened to sue actress Sarah Martin for reportedly photoshopping Judy Austin into a picture of her family.
A comparison of the original photo taken by the family during Christmas last year with the photoshopped version shows Judy Austin seated in a black dress just beside May and Yul Edochie's last child.
Star, the son Judy bore for Yul, is also featured in the photoshopped image.
May took to her instagram page to share a document thereatening to sue Sarah and also registered her displeasure about the situation in her caption.
Expressing her anger, she wrote, “it is inconsiderate and demeaning to smear anyone, especially someone you barely knew. I’ve always had a peaceful, joyful and loving family. I worked tirelessly for several years building a beautiful home while managing several businesses successfully.”
“It is evident that some persons have deliberately and desperately tried to taint my reputation and “change the narrative” to suit their agenda. This is unacceptable to me,” she added.
May also threatens to sue Sarah for a “false and injurious” statement made against her during an Instagram live session with popular media personality Daddy Freeze.
In the letter, it was stated that Sarah implied during the live chat that May “failed in her duties as a wife to Mr Yul Edochie and that such failures led Mr Yul Edochie to leave our client (May) and get married to Ms Judy Austin."
The document explained that the statement was false as there was no event or evidence to confirm that the idea made was true. The document also revealed that there was no form of relationship between May and Sarah to have warranted the conclusions Sarah held against her.
Stating the degree of Sarah’s offence, May’s counsel added that there was malice at play, saying that the statement was made from a place of hatred for May. The statement inferred that Yul was estranged from May, whom he married in 2004.
They also highlighted a conspiracy between Sarah and Judy Austin to drive May out. Contained in the list of demands are a public apology, a full retraction of the statement and an assurance that such false utterances will not be made in the future.
Sarah’s Reaction
Reacting to the news of the impending lawsuit, Sarah shared a meme of a sad boy thinking about his life and wrote, “500m ??? God abeg o.”
The post was accompanied by an emoji caption which illustrated her hands on her head.
