Yinka Theisen, the former partner of Nollywood actor Linc Edochie, has shared her thoughts on the emotional video released by Emmanuel Obasi, estranged husband of actress Judy Austin, who recently revealed that he has not seen his children in over a decade.
Taking to social media, Yinka expressed disbelief at Obasi’s claim, writing:
“What a shame! Ridiculous is when a father goes ten years without seeing his kids. There is no blame game that can explain this absurdity!!”
Her blunt post quickly stirred conversation online, with many praising her for calling out what she sees as parental irresponsibility, while others speculated her comments were deeply personal.
“Karma Needs No Help,” She Adds
In a follow-up post, Theisen shared a cryptic message on karma, possibly hinting at her own experiences:
“Karma: No need for revenge. Just sit back and wait. Those who hurt you will eventually screw up themselves — and if you’re lucky, it will let you watch. And you can watch sipping on champagne.”
Though she didn’t name anyone directly, the timing of her remarks — coming shortly after her own high-profile split from Linc Edochie — has fueled speculation that her posts reflect more than just public commentary.
Background: Judy Austin and Emmanuel Obasi’s Custody Drama
The online drama follows a viral video in which Emmanuel Obasi, Judy Austin’s former husband, revealed his decade-long separation from his children. Obasi accused Judy of cutting off contact and claimed he was denied access since she left the marriage and later became involved with actor Yul Edochie.
The situation has reignited online conversations about parental alienation, celebrity relationships, and accountability in broken homes — themes that continue to dominate the Nigerian entertainment space.
Public Reaction
Social media users have been divided in their reactions. Some sided with Obasi, blaming Judy for keeping the children away. Others questioned why he waited ten years without taking legal action or finding other means to reach his children.
Yinka Theisen’s remarks added fuel to the debate, with fans applauding her boldness and emotional honesty, especially considering her own quiet but noticeable exit from the Edochie family circle.
