Yinka Theisen has opened up about how trying to help May Edochie eventually led to serious problems in her own marriage to actor Linc Edochie, the son of veteran actor Pete Edochie. According to Yinka, her troubles began when Linc’s social media account was hacked.
She helped him recover the account successfully, and he posted about it publicly. This made people aware of her ability to handle such technical issues, including May Edochie, who later reached out to her for help.
Yinka explained that May got her phone number and contacted her because she was also dealing with an internet-related issue. Wanting to assist, Yinka did her best to help May and kept their chat as proof of the support she provided. However, not long after, things took a negative turn.
Yinka began receiving hurtful messages and threats from online trolls through her private number. She believed these attacks were coming from May’s supporters and assumed that her number might have leaked through her connection with May.
Feeling hurt and unprotected, Yinka went online and blamed May for remaining silent while her fans were attacking her. The situation worsened when Yinka, in a moment of anger, shared May Edochie’s phone number publicly.
She said she did this because she felt May had refused to step in or say anything to stop the online bullying. This act caused massive backlash online and created a media storm that eventually led to the breakdown of Yinka’s marriage to Linc Edochie.
Yinka further explained that the hate from May’s supporters started after she liked a post shared by Judy Austin, who is now married to Yul Edochie. The post featured Judy and her child.
Yinka said she only liked the post to avoid picking sides in the ongoing family drama between Yul’s estranged first wife, May, and his new wife, Judy. However, May’s fans saw that action as disloyalty and began attacking her.
As the pressure from the attacks increased, Yinka shared May’s number online, thinking it would make people understand her frustration. But instead of sympathy, she received even more criticism.
This added tension pushed her husband Linc to end their relationship. Yinka made it clear that she has never spoken to Judy Austin or Yul Edochie in person. She said she simply supported them on social media and never intended to offend anyone.
Now, Yinka is dealing with the consequences of her online actions. What started as an innocent act of helping someone turned into a big public issue that cost her marriage and damaged her reputation. She believes it’s important to share her truth and let people understand what really happened from her side.
