May Edochie, the estranged wife of Nollywood actor Yul Edochie, left fans in awe with her stunning appearance at the premiere of Funke Akindele’s highly anticipated movie, Everybody Loves Jenifa.
The star-studded event, held in Lagos, was a glamorous affair featuring notable celebrities and public figures. Taking to Instagram, May shared photos of her jaw-dropping outfit designed by Becca Needles N Stitches. Her look, which perfectly encapsulated the event’s “Glam, Glitz & Blings” theme, was hailed as both elegant and artistic.
May captioned her post with playful confidence:
“Serving you brunch a few seconds early. Dress code for the Everybody Loves Jenifa premiere says Lagos after-party – Glam, Glitz & Blings, but @beccaneedlesnstitches didn’t stop there; she added precision and artistry to match the natural elegance of a queen.”
In the comment section of her post, a fan posed a question about why her estranged husband, Yul Edochie, an established Nollywood actor, was not seen at such events. This subtle inquiry highlighted May’s rising popularity and acceptance in elite circles, even amidst personal challenges.
Since her separation from Yul Edochie, May has continued to break boundaries, proving that life after divorce can be empowering. She has earned admiration from fans and celebrities alike, with her grace and resilience shining through every step of the way.
In a recent interview with comedian Ayo Makun, May revealed that she had been turning down lucrative movie roles for the past three years, despite being approached by industry heavyweights like Omoni Oboli. Her decision stemmed from a deliberate focus on aligning her brand with meaningful projects.
May’s determination has earned her numerous accolades, including:
- Brand Ambassador of the Year at the Nigerian Social Media Awards, where she credited her supporters for their unwavering encouragement.
- Leading Women in Africa Award from Imperial Leo Group Network, recognizing her impact across the continent.
- United Nations Eminate Peace Ambassador Award, which she attributed to divine favor.
May’s loyal fan base has celebrated her milestones in extraordinary ways. For her birthday this year, they placed her face on a billboard at Times Square, New York, and gifted her a luxurious white Range Rover.
Reflecting on these gestures, May expressed deep gratitude, stating:
“What else is the true definition of love?”
