Nigerian actor and movie producer, Yul Edochie, has said marrying another wife has elevated him and brought his wives favours.
He also said though his decision to embrace polygamy was seen as a wrong step by most people, it turned out to be a blessing for him and his two wives, May and Judy.
He made this known via a lengthy Instagram post on Thursday, June 9, where he compared his current situation to that of biblical Joseph and King David.

He admitted he wronged his first wife with the way he went about announcing his second wife but said he has apologised to her.
Yul wrote, “God works in mysterious ways. Marrying a second wife has brought me blessings and also elevated my two lovely wives.
“Sometimes it takes the things we see as disappointments to happen for elevation to come. It happened many times in the bible, just like the case of Joseph.
“I’m a man after God’s heart. I’m like King David in the bible. I communicate with my God and He guides me everyday.
“I wronged my wife May from the way I went about it, and I have apologised to her sincerely from the bottom of my heart, but in the eyes of God things are different.”
Yul went on to give details of how his adoption of polygamy led to his first wife getting her first endorsement and wished her more success.
He also said his second wife, Judy has become more successful in her chosen career, while his fame has grown astonishingly.
He added, “My wife, May, just signed her first endorsement deal. Something that never happened all these years. And this came from what many saw as a disappointment.
“I have realised that God’s ways are different. Many more deals will still come to her because she’s a wonderful person.
“So is my wife Judy. She has also been elevated. Now widely known, her career is bigger with a whole lot going for her as well.
“Let me not even talk about myself. My stardom has tripled. My name is being mentioned in places it never got to before. My children are blessed.”
The Thespian trended on social media for a very long time after he announced he has a son with a Nollywood actress, Judy Austin, and introduced her as his second wife.
His family later disassociated themselves from his second wife’s saga, but he stood his ground.
