Judy Austin and her ex-husband are embroiled in a legal battle over allegations of infidelity and the custody of their children.
Jude Obasi, the former spouse of actress Judy Austin, is actively pursuing legal measures to restore his parental rights and regain access to his children.
During a recent consultation with his legal counsel,
Barrister Emeka Ugwuonye, Obasi received assurances that he will be reunited
with his children in the near future.
Earlier this week, Obasi publicly expressed his distress
over not being able to see the children he shares with Judy. He accused her of
having an affair with Edochie while still married to him. Obasi stated,
"She was still under my care when she began associating with Yul. Now, she
is causing me great difficulty. She threatened to make my life miserable by
keeping the children away from me, knowing how much I care for them. It's
heartbreaking for a father like me to be separated from my 16 and 14-year-old children
for a decade. The thought of it constantly disturbs me. I cannot bear it. She
is not with them, and neither am I. Their upbringing is of utmost importance to
me, and I am desperate to see them."
Responding to Obasi’s claims, Judy said, “That is the
fattest lie ever told about me on social media. My previous marriage ended in
March 2013, and I met Yul Edochie for the first time years after my marriage
had ended.”
Yul took to Instagram to express his support for his wife,
writing a message of solidarity, “Our progress and happiness is hurting many
people and giving them sleepless nights. That is why they keep making all sorts
of lies against us. They will talk until they are tired.”
