May Edochie, the estranged wife of Nollywood actor Yul Edochie, has once again demonstrated her grace and respect for family ties by celebrating her former father-in-law, Pete Edochie, on his 78th birthday.
Taking to Instagram, May shared heartfelt words alongside photos of the iconic Nollywood actor, describing him as a “true icon, a veteran, and a father to all.” She wished Pete a joyous day filled with love and a year ahead blessed with good health and happiness.
Celebrating a true icon! A veteran and father to all! @peteedochie the great.
Here is wishing you a glorious day filled with joy and a year ahead full of good health and happiness!
May God continue to increase your wisdom and strength, and may you continue to inspire those around you,” she wrote.
May’s tribute highlights the mutual respect she shares with Pete, despite her separation from Yul Edochie. In the past, Pete openly expressed admiration for May, calling her his favorite daughter-in-law. He credited her brilliance and dedication as the foundation of her 18-year marriage to Yul.
The celebration also saw Yul Edochie praising his father, referring to him as one of Nigeria’s greatest icons and Nollywood’s biggest name. Joining him, Yul’s second wife, Judy Austin, described Pete as the “Lion of Africa” and expressed her love for the veteran actor.
May’s enduring bond with the Edochie family is evident in her actions. Last year, she serenaded Pete on his 77th birthday with a beautiful song and Igbo praises. She has celebrated his accomplishments, from his Chieftaincy title to receiving double doctorate degrees in Togo.
Despite the challenges in her personal life, May Edochie continues to show class and respect, proving that relationships can transcend differences when built on mutual admiration and love.
