Actress Rita Edochie recently posted a cryptic message on her Instagram, leaving fans speculating about the intended recipient of her shaded remarks. While not directly naming Judy Austin, the post raised eyebrows as it questioned how someone could advise a legally married woman to relinquish her husband’s last name. Rita’s words hinted at a situation where a woman, rumored to be “picked from the street,” was allegedly being urged to drop her husband’s surname. The complex dynamics involving Yul Edochie, Rita’s nephew, and his relationships with May Edochie and Judy Austin added layers to the speculation, particularly regarding May’s continued use of the Edochie surname despite reported separation from Yul.
