May Yul-Edochie, estranged wife of Nollywood actor Yul Edochie, has taken legal action against Yinka Theisen, the U.S.-based ex-fiancée of Yul’s elder brother, Linc Edochie.
In a cease-and-desist notice issued on August 19, 2025, by her legal representatives, Gray Law Partners, May accused Theisen of publishing “false, malicious, and defamatory” statements against her on social media.
The document, signed by Esther Chinaza Fijo, Esq., alleged that Theisen engaged in cyberstalking, cyberbullying, and public shaming, which had endangered May’s safety and caused significant damage to her reputation.
The notice demanded that Theisen withdraw all posts, issue a public apology across every platform, and pay ₦500 million in damages.
She was also given 48 hours to comply or face civil and criminal proceedings.The legal action follows months of public exchanges between both women.
Earlier this year, Theisen accused May of instigating online harassment against her, a claim May denied.
As of the time of this report, Theisen has not publicly responded to the notice.
