Nollywood actor Yul Edochie has advised public figures against hiding their personal lives following revelations that his late colleague, Alexx Ekubo, was secretly married.
Alexx had kept his marriage to Anwuli Amakom, also known as Anuli, completely private. The union reportedly took place in a quiet ceremony attended only by close family members and a small circle of trusted friends.
Many fans, colleagues, only became aware of his wife through family statements and tributes released after his passing.
While members of his inner circle knew about the marriage, it remained unknown to most people outside that close-knit group.
Following the revelation, people began searching for more details about his wife, with many digging through social media and old posts in an attempt to learn more about her identity and background. The sudden attention quickly spread online as curiosity grew.
Reacting to the revelation, Yul Edochie shared his views on social media:
“He shouldn’t have hidden anything from anyone.
It wasn’t necessary. People must learn to stop worrying about what people say.
No matter what you do in life, people must talk.
So, leave them to talk.
Leave blogs to blog.
To be great in life, you must never make yourself small for anyone or any reason.
Give them things to talk about while you ignore them and enjoy your life.”
Yul said people should not allow fear of public opinion to dictate how they live their lives, noting that criticism and commentary are inevitable regardless of one’s choices.
