She challenged him to provide proof of financial support, parental involvement, or court actions regarding the children.
“It hurts. Not once has he brought out evidence of taking care of these kids. Not once has he brought out any evidence of coming to court for custody. But he has a lot to say about me,” she stated.
The actress also used the opportunity to defend her husband, Yul Edochie, whom she said has been unfairly targeted over circumstances surrounding her previous marriage.
Judy insisted that Yul had no role in the breakdown of her former marriage and urged bloggers and online commentators to stop attacking him.
“Please, I am warning all you bloggers, stop insulting Yul Edochie. He has done nothing, absolutely nothing. If anything, he has helped me take care of kids that are not his biological kids,” she said.
She further alleged that her former husband abandoned his parental responsibilities, while praising Yul for providing emotional, financial, and moral support to her children.
According to the actress, she met Yul Edochie three years after her previous marriage had already ended, maintaining that critics should stop linking him to issues that predated their relationship.
The latest exchange has reignited public interest in the highly publicized relationship between Judy Austin and Yul Edochie, with social media users divided over the claims and counterclaims emerging from both sides.
As reactions continue to trail the controversy, many observers believe the debate highlights broader conversations about celebrity relationships, parenting responsibilities, and the impact of public scrutiny on family matters.
