August 06, (THEWILL) – Veteran Nollywood actor, Pete Edochie, has revealed that he wasn’t aware when his son, Yul Edochie, picked a second wife.
He made this known during a chat with media personality, Chude Jideonwo.
Jideonwo had asked his opinion about Yul’s second marriage. Responding, Edochie stated that his son didn’t tell him about it.
He added that he doesn’t interfere in his children’s marital affairs unless they involve him.
Edochie revealed that he also heard about it like every other person.
“First of all, Yul is 41 and I really don’t interfere in his affairs, no. Suddenly, we heard he has picked a second wife.
“There is one thing you must know about me. I don’t lie, it’s not necessary. God created me so well, If I tell you this thing is black, it is black.
“You know, it’s like when he wanted to run for governor or something. When I saw his photograph, I thought it was an introduction they were doing. There was someone who called me and said, ‘Do you know something? Yul is running for governor’.
“I said, ‘he must be crazy, how?’ I never heard it. I have 5 sons, I don’t interfere with their lives, you know. If they say daddy, so and so things are happening, good. if they don’t tell me, I don’t bother. If they tell me, beautiful. We just heard it and that’s it,” he said
Speaking about May, Yul’s first wife, Edochie revealed how much he loves his daughter-in-law.
“May is not just a daughter-in-law. I don’t want to say that I love her more than the other wives of my sons but the love I have for May is so strong. Her father and I were very close. Yes and when we went for the traditional marriage rites at their place, the kind of reception their people gave me, I will never forget.
“May is a girl I love to the marrow. By the way, she is a wonderful person. May is a very very brilliant girl. You may not know that. May is a computer wizard. That lady you’re looking at, right and to a very large extent, the success of that home is to her credit, yeah.
“But again, you know things like this happen and it’s so difficult to convince her that you’re not part of it. You know May is a wonderful person. In fact, I just had my 76th birthday and the message she put out was so endearing. May is a wonderful woman,” he stated.
