Veteran Nollywood actress, Rita Edochie, has mocked fellow thespian, Judy Austin after actor and movie director, Yul Edochie denied marrying her as his second wife.
Yul Edochie while responding to a suit filed against him by his ex-wife, May Edochie claimed that he is not legally married to Judy.
May who is seeking divorce, in the suit accused her ex-husband of adultery, but he maintained there is no legally recognised union between him and the actress.
Yul told the court that the relationship that existed between him and Judy Austin was all about skitmaking.

According to Premium Times, May’s legal team, headed by Emeka Ugwuonye of Due Process Advocates, in a statement said the ongoing case at the FCT High Court, Abuja, slated for a hearing on 5 March, faced an unexpected setback as the court session did not proceed, a circumstance Yul and Judy claimed credit for.
Ugwuonye further said Yul wrote in his petition, “That since the news of the birth of Star in June 2021, Gistlover, as a negative blog that thrives in fake and manipulated information for financial gains, has been negatively exploiting every movie or skit featuring me and Judy and generating social media traffic for financial gains.”
Reacting to the development, Rita Edochie, who had always supported May, took to her Instagram page to ask if Judy Austin became a skit maker by marriage.
She wrote: “Firstly, I was picked from the streets and today I am a skit maker by marriage? Chai!
“God, what have I done to myself.”
