Veteran Nollywood actress Shan George has defended her colleague Yul Edochie and his wife, Judy Austin, amid renewed criticism trailing their controversial relationship.

In the interview, Obasi alleged that he sponsored Judy's education before she left him and later moved on with the actor.
This revelation awoke criticism from online in-laws who accused Judy of being a homewrecker and blamed her for the collapse of Yul's marriage to his first wife, May Edochie.
However, Shan George believes it is time for critics to let go of the ceaseless attacks on the family.
Taking to her Facebook page, the actress started by clarifying that she has never met or spoken to Judy Austin before, but simply felt compelled to speak out.
According to Shan, enough time has passed since the controversy began, and the fact that Yul and Judy have remained together and welcomed three children should be enough reason for critics to move on.
She questioned why the couple is still being attacked years after the relationship became public. She warned that excessive hatred and unforgiveness go against Christian teachings.
In her words:
"Do u Believe that GOD IS IN CONTROL? Do u hv Children? Do u kno tomorrow? Do u think u r wiser than GOD? Pls Ask urself these questions and deeply reason it.
First off, I've never met or spoken to Judy ever before in my life, so don't get this twisted.( feel free to abuse me, na so dem been abuse and Kpai Jesus for preaching forgiveness and no Hate.)"

The movie star also cautioned against holding onto bitterness, claiming that hatred could prevent people from receiving their own blessings.
She added:
"If u r still at this point in time still dragging YUL & JUDY, after all these years, and 3 kids down. It means u r Playing God, or u hv another secret evul Agenda, Bcos that particular kind of Hate is what Jesus Christ spent years and died preaching about. If u r still hating, being unforgiving, and u r still entering church. U hv no FEAR OF GOD. Read ur Bible."
She further argued that attacking Judy Austin would not solve anyone's personal problems, adding that what has happened cannot be changed and should be left in God's hands.
