KanyiDaily recalls that the 16-year-old boy, Kambilichukwu Edochie died three months ago in March when he collapsed while playing football in school.
Many criticized Yul Edochie for returning to social media shortly after the incident, seemingly unaffected by the tragedy. They also accused him of being insensitive towards his first wife, May Edochie, and their other children.
In a video shared on Yul’s Facebook page, Judy Austin defended her husband and urged critics to allow the actor to mourn their late son in his own way.
The mother of two emphasized that people should refrain from judging others’ mourning processes until they experience the loss of a child themselves.
She pledged unwavering support for her husband and warned the naysayers of the consequences if they continued with their hurtful comments.
Judy Austin said, “This man lost his first son and you want to tell him how to mourn. You want to tell him how to behave, wait till you lose your own, then show us how it’s done. But until then, as long as you haven’t experienced that pain please shut up.
“If you don’t have anything good to say just shut up. Because you don’t know what he has been going through since last year April.
“You don’t know what he had to endure till today. And he doesn’t owe you that story, it’s left for him and his God. But what you need to do is mind your business.
“He left home in the midst of unbearing pain and he had to go back to work. Who will take care of his children? Who will pay his children’s school fees? Who will feed them?
“He is a man, he went back to work because he need to go back to work but it’s a problem for you people.
“If he wants me to dance for him to be happy, I will dance for him and do dance-a-thon. Whatever he needs from me, I would do it. You don’t know what he sees in his house, you don’t know what he is going through.”
Sharing the video, she wrote: “Come for me and I’ll come for you 10 times, come for Yul Edochie and I’ll come for you one thousand times.
“Wait till your own child dies, then you can show us how to mourn. Judy Austin speaks fire and more.”
