Nollywood actress Yvonne Jegede releases an apology statement addressing her recent statement about Yul Edochie's marriage in a recent interview on the popular podcast, The Honest Bunch.
Recall that Yvonne Jegede sparked reactions online after supporting fellow actor Yul Edochie for taking a second wife and leaving his first wife, May Edochie. Yvonne Jegede slammed Nigerians for criticizing Yul Edochie's marriage to Judy Austin, saying polygamy is a part of African culture.
In a recent Instagram post, Yvonne Jegede expressed her concerns over the backlash she has faced due to her statement on the podcast episode. Yvonne Jegede admitted that her words were not articulated in a way that conveyed her true intentions.
She apologized saying she didn't mean to cause pain or distress to Yul Edochie's estranged wife, May. Yvonne Jegede said she intended to reflect on the cultural impact of polygamy in Africa and relate it to her latest movie "A Father's Love" but unfortunately, it was misinterpreted.
