“He Threw Me Under the Bus” – Yinka Edochie Breaks Silence on Marriage Split

Yinka Edochie, estranged wife of Nollywood actor Linc Edochie, has gone public with her anguish following their split, lamenting that a man she loved “threw me under the bus.” Her emotional outburst follows weeks of intensive social media drama that has captivated fans across Nigeria.

In an impassioned video posted on Instagram this week, Yinka accused Linc of turning his back on her during a personal crisis. She highlighted the pain of being made the scapegoat in a very public spectacle. “It’s sad … a man I loved could treat me this way, publicly,” she said tearfully.

Sources close to the couple reveal that tensions escalated in May, soon after Yinka confirmed her marriage to Linc. She had also publicly supported Linc’s brother, Yul Edochie, and Judy Austin—May Edochie’s rival. This allegiance reportedly fueled division in an already fractured family dynamic.

The controversy reached new heights when Yinka shared May Edochie’s personal phone number and using her platform to say she’d been unfairly harassed. “Enough is enough,” she declared—an act widely criticized as a significant breach of privacy .

Yinka also chastised detractors who defended Judy and Yul, suggesting she was merely speaking out after months of silent endurance. “I will not be bullied off social media,” she affirmed, vowing not to hide behind silence again.

Fans have remained polarized: some echo Yinka’s calls for fairness, while ardent supporters of May brand her actions as unnecessary provocation. That contrast has kept the feud trending throughout June, with neither side backing down.

As Yinka steps into the light, yearning for clarity and redemption, many are calling for her to release statements on the relationship’s collapse. Only time will tell whether reconciliation or permanent estrangement follows, but the message from her heartbreak is loud and clear.
