Actress Sarah Martins has publicly addressed the accusations of jealousy and rivalry that have been leveled against her in connection with her former best friend, Judy Austin, and relationship expert Blessing CEO.
These accusations have been circulating for some time, and Sarah took to her Instagram to set the record straight in a candid post that has since sparked widespread discussion.
In her post, Sarah vehemently denied being envious of Judy Austin, with whom she has had a complicated relationship. She explained that rather than engaging in petty competition or causing harm to another woman, she would much rather remain single.
Sarah emphasised that her decision to stay away from the advances of married men was not out of jealousy but out of respect for the sanctity of other people’s marriages.
Sarah expressed frustration over the ongoing “snatch your own” narrative that has been applied to her. According to her, women who choose to remain strong and faithful to their own values, especially in situations where married men make advances, should be recognised and praised for their restraint.

She stated that she is frequently contacted by married men but has consistently refused to engage with them because she does not want to be responsible for breaking up any homes.
In her words, Sarah boldly stated, “Them: Sarah is jealous of Judy Austin and Bceo because she no see man snatch… I’d rather kpai single than be the reason for my fellow woman’s p@in. The truth is, una husbands dey my dm but na me no gree ruin your homes. Be grateful and stop pushing me!!!! Enough of this ‘snatch your own’ stigma!”
She continued to make it clear that while many might speculate or accuse her of jealousy, the truth is that she values integrity above all.
Sarah’s strong stance was further emphasized with her statement: “I am too sweet and if I allow your husband to taste my opueh, you must reach your papa’s house on God…”
This remark was a clear message to those who have questioned her loyalty and character. Sarah also made it known that she is aware of how the situation could feel if the roles were reversed, urging women to be more empathetic and stop endorsing behavior they would not tolerate if it happened to them.
The ongoing drama between Sarah Martins and Judy Austin is far from over, with lingering issues and unresolved grievances adding fuel to the fire. One of the central points of contention between the two women has been a financial dispute. Sarah had previously accused Judy of owing her a significant sum of money, specifically N1 million, for promotional services rendered. This accusation led to a public exchange of insults and further intensified the rift between the two.
In the midst of all the controversy, Sarah remains firm in her belief that she is not the cause of any of the tension surrounding the situation. Her focus, she says, is on maintaining her integrity and choosing not to contribute to the pain or heartbreak of another woman. She urged her followers and critics alike to look beyond the drama and recognize the importance of honoring and respecting one another, particularly when it comes to relationships.
