Judy Austin's Supporter Defends Her Amid Court Case

On September 30, 2026, Judy Austin's supporter, Florence Mbeng, publicly defended the actress following a court appearance related to a defamation lawsuit against her ex-husband, Emmanuel Obasi. In a video posted online, Florence described Judy's readiness for the proceedings, contrasting it with the unpreparedness of Obasi and Rita Edochie's legal team.

Judy, who attended as the complainant, was noted for her confident demeanor as she left the courthouse in a car with a driver and undercover security. Florence dismissed criticisms regarding Judy's court attire, asserting that she dresses according to her own standards and that her husband, Yul Edochie, appreciates her style.

She also addressed Yul's absence at the court date, emphasizing that it is the accused parties who should be anxious. Additionally, Florence urged in-laws to respect marriages and warned against any physical confrontations with Judy, indicating the presence of security.

The case is set for an adjournment on November 24, 2026.
