"I Have Never Stopped Anybody From Seeing His Children" – Yul Edochie Breaks Silence on Judy Austin's Ex-Husband's Claims

"I Have Never Stopped Anybody From Seeing His Children" – Yul Edochie Breaks Silence on Judy Austin's Ex-Husband's Claims

Yul Edochie has responded to the recent allegations made by Emmanuel Obasi, the ex-husband of his wife Judy Austin, and his response has put the ball firmly in Obasi's court. Taking to his social media platforms on Friday, the controversial actor dismissed claims that he has been blocking Obasi from seeing his biological children. In a statement that was both firm and dismissive, Yul made it clear that he has never stopped anybody from seeing his children and that the matter should be discussed directly between Obasi and Judy Austin. "Some of my fans have reached out to me, saying, 'pls allow him to see his children'. I have never stopped anybody from seeing his children," he wrote. The actor further accused critics and "clout-chasers" of using his household's name for financial gain and social media engagement, stating that in this era of social media, people prefer chasing clout and social media money with his name rather than doing the right thing. He emphasized that he should not be dragged into the arrangement between the two former spouses, adding, "Tell him to call his ex-wife. If he wants to see or take his children, let them discuss it. He has her number. It has nothing to do with me". The statement has since gone viral, with fans and critics weighing in on both sides of the argument. Obasi had earlier claimed in a podcast interview that Yul had an affair with Judy Austin before they separated and that he had been prevented from accessing the two children he shares with her. He also alleged that Judy openly admired Yul Edochie during their marriage, a claim that has added fuel to the already heated debate surrounding the controversial union. However, Yul's response suggests that he is unwilling to entertain the allegations further and has directed Obasi to resolve the matter directly with his ex-wife. Judy Austin had earlier responded to her ex-husband's claims, maintaining that she had never restricted Obasi's access to see his kids and challenging him to take the matter to court. She also claimed that someone had paid him to grant interviews to tarnish her and Yul's names. Yul's latest statement has only added more layers to the saga, but his message is clear, he is not the gatekeeper, and any issues regarding the children should be resolved between the two biological parents. Whether Obasi will take his ex-wife to court or continue to air his grievances on social media remains to be seen.
