Nigerian socialite and actress May Edochie has shared the story of how she first met her estranged husband, Nollywood actor Yul Edochie.

Speaking on a recent lifestyle podcast, May revealed that their encounter happened long before either of them gained fame or entered marriage.

The mother of three said their first meeting took place at a General Certificate Examination (GCE) centre during her early university days. She had just relocated from Lagos to Enugu State University when she crossed paths with Yul, who was then a student at the University of Port Harcourt (UNIPORT).

“Way back in school when I went to the East for my university, I’m a bookworm. It’s always been about books for me. We didn’t meet at a party or any glamorous setting, we met at a GCE centre,” she recalled.

Looking back, May described herself as a focused and academically driven young woman during that time.
