Nollywood actor Yul Edochie says late actor Alexx Ekubo should not have kept his marriage private. In remarks reported by Nigerian outlets, Edochie argues that public figures should not hide major parts of their personal lives out of fear of public opinion or online criticism. He frames the issue around visibility and acceptance of relationships, saying that sharing such aspects can help normalize them rather than treating them as something that must be concealed.

Both reports describe Edochie responding to discussion surrounding Ekubo’s approach to keeping his wife away from the spotlight. They present his view as a general statement about how celebrities handle relationships, rather than providing new details about Ekubo’s marriage itself. The accounts focus on Edochie’s position that public scrutiny is inevitable for entertainers and that attempting to avoid it by keeping a marriage hidden can be counterproductive. The reports therefore emphasize Edochie’s commentary on privacy in celebrity relationships following renewed public conversation about Ekubo.
