Yinka Theisen, the estranged wife of Nollywood actor Linc Edochie, has spoken out about the collapse of their whirlwind relationship, dismissing online speculation that outsiders were to blame for their breakup.
In a recent Facebook post, Yinka revealed that the demise of their relationship was due to internal issues between the two of them, rather than external factors such as spiritual forces, jealous fans, or unsolicited public opinions. Fans however, offered advice and dropped words of encouragement.
“When two people are in a committed relationship, the only people that can destroy it are those two and what they allow,” Yinka wrote, emphasizing that she and Linc had agreed to share their relationship online. She also praised Linc as “a good man with lots of admirable qualities” and chose to focus on the positive memories of their time together. “It was a beautiful one while it lasted. If a relationship ends, no matter how sad it is, it was meant to end,” she concluded.
Yinka’s statement comes after someone on Facebook claimed she ruined the relationship by announcing the engagement, prompting her to address the rumors and superstitions surrounding public relationships.
Reacting to the post, social media users via the comment section of the post urged the Thesian to leave everything to God, and move on with her life.
One Judith Kambia Obatusa said: “You can’t respond to every slight or counter every lie on social media or even in life. To allow God fight for you, you have to, in fact in this case you must, hold your peace. Exodus 14:14”
Another user, AdaGlow commented saying: “At least she’s honest. Many women won’t admit their own role. Wishing her healing and peace.”
@TundeRealist wrote: “So all the blame on May was unnecessary after all. People just love dragging that woman for nothing”
QueenJay22 noted: “I respect Yinka for this. Owning your truth in public isn’t easy. But wait, was this whole thing just clout?”
EzeNwa1 added: “Relationship wey no last 3 months don turn public documentary. We go soon see Netflix series at this rate.”
