Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie, has gotten a public response from his first wife, May, days after he sought her forgiveness over his decision to become a polygamist and bring a second wife into their home.
Addressing her husband in a lengthy Instagram post, May agreed with his position that humans are prone to mistakes and no one is perfect. She stressed that what matters the most is how people choose to react to mistakes.
To put it directly, Edochie’s wife stated that there is a clear difference between forgiveness and righting a wrong. May added that for her, forgiveness is the most beautiful form of love and indeed “there is no love without forgiveness, and there is no forgiveness without love.”
She proceeded to add that forgiving all that her husband has done over the pasts few months is in the overall interest of her personal mental health and peace.
In a different portion of her post, May, however, made it clear that her stance on polygamy remains the same and she won’t be cajoled into accepting an idea that goes against her beliefs, faith and values.
May made it clear to her husband that she won’t be numbered in a home where they both worked hard over the course of their 18 years of marriage.
She also appealed to the actor to stop bringing their matter to the internet for the sake of their children.
