Ugwuonye emphasised that co-parenting is not just a moral obligation but a legal requirement for the estranged couple, given their shared children.
Emeka Ugwuonye, the legal representative of May Edochie, has given explanation on the co-parenting arrangement between May Edochie and her estranged husband, Yul Edochie.
He spoke in a recent Instagram post.
Ugwuonye noted that co-parenting is not just a moral obligation but a legal requirement for the estranged couple, given their shared children.
According to the lawyer, effective co-parenting demands cooperation and communication between May and Yul Edochie, despite their personal differences.
He revealed that the couple is co parenting effectively, stating that Yul is providing financial support for the children’s education and having unrestricted access to them.
Ugwuonye said: “Yes, May and Yul have children together. They will co-parent. Why is that driving anybody crazy? Yul and May are already co-parenting right now, that is the only way it can work. Yul is contributing to the children’s school fees and supporting them as well, so he has unlimited access to the kids. That is what co-parenting entails. If they do not speak to each other, they cannot co-parent effectively.
“Because many of the supporters on both sides are ignorant, they do not understand the fact that both May and Yul have no other choice over the matter: they have to co-parent.
“Now, as for Judy, she is not in any legal relationship with May’s children. There is no basis for any cooperation between May and Judy. However, if Judy eventually gets married to Yul, that will make her a stepmother to May’s children with Yul.”
