Nollywood actress Sarah Martins has explained why she is no longer close to her former friend, Judy Austin.
Naija News reports that in an interview, Martins said her decision had nothing to do with Judy’s marriage to Yul Edochie but was because she realised Judy was emotionally hurting Yul’s first wife, May.
According to the 31-year-old actress, Judy initially fed her with false stories about May, which made her publicly support her at the time.
She said she only discovered the truth much later.
Sarah added that she was not around when Judy and Yul started their relationship or had their first child, as Judy was still married to her ex-husband, Obasi, at the time.
Sarah recalled meeting Judy in 2022 after approaching Yul for an advert job.
Yul directed her to work with Judy, which led to their friendship.
She often visited them in Enugu until public backlash grew, with some people wrongly accusing her of introducing Judy to Yul.
Sarah said she decided to distance herself to avoid further involvement in the controversy.
“I used to be Judy’s friend. But I didn’t stop supporting her because of polygamy. I stopped when I realised she was emotionally bullying another woman—May, Yul’s first wife.
“Initially, Judy told me a lot of lies about May, and I believed her. That’s why my support for her was so loud. But I later found out the truth. I wasn’t in the picture when she and Yul started dating or had their first child. She was still married to Obasi at that time.
“Our friendship began in 2022 through business. I approached Yul for an advert. He asked me to work with Judy, which I did. We became friends, and I started visiting them in Enugu. But when the backlash became intense and people falsely claimed I introduced her to Yul, I had to back off. I didn’t want to be part of that drama anymore.”
