Less than a month after their highly publicized union, Linc Edochie and his wife, Yinka Theisan, have gone their separate ways, and it’s far from a quiet breakup.
Yinka, a mental health nurse and entrepreneur, took to Facebook to express her anger and disappointment over how their relationship ended. According to her, a minor argument quickly spiraled into a full-blown split after Linc abruptly blocked her and walked away from the marriage.
“You may all continue to laugh at me. I had a quarrel with Linc this morning and was upset and threatened to break up. Next thing I was blocked and he broke up in the most embarrassing way,” she wrote.
She further claimed that one of Linc’s relatives, Leo, had gone as far as recording a derogatory message about her an action she described as humiliating and cowardly.
Yinka didn’t mince words in her vow to respond with equal intensity, especially after Linc reportedly dissociated himself from her actions in the ongoing drama with May Yul Edochie.
“The same Linc who gave May my number is defending himself… It is sad that a man I love can throw me under the bus over an argument because of fear. Since he has cowardly embarrassed me on social media, I will respond in kind,” she added.
This dramatic fallout follows weeks of online tension sparked by Yinka’s clash with May Edochie, the estranged wife of Linc’s brother, Yul Edochie. Their feud had intensified when personal phone numbers were leaked online, leading to a flood of online backlash and finger-pointing.
Reacting to the chaos, Linc took to Facebook to clear his name and publicly disassociate himself from the conflict, saying:
“I usually don’t make careless speeches, but I want to set the record straight. I am a man of peace and value my sanity. For the record, I did not just endorse posting the recent attacks on May, nor did I endorse posting her number online, which has triggered meaningless retaliation. We may not all agree with each other, but we can respect one another.
In the same post, he hinted at the end of his union with Yinka, stating:
“Better to be alone and at peace than to be in a union filled with landmines. Respect.”
Both parties have now unfollowed each other on social media, signaling a bitter and public end to a romance that once seemed promising.
