Nollywood actress and philanthropist Tonto Dikeh has stirred widespread reactions online after sharing an emotional Instagram post acknowledging a renewed peace with her ex-husband, Dr Kunle Churchill, following nearly a decade of public conflict.

In the lengthy post, Tonto described the reconciliation as a spiritual restoration, crediting God for healing what she said years of human effort could not fix. Without announcing a romantic reunion, the actress made it clear that the reconciliation is centered on peace, mutual respect, and the wellbeing of their son, rather than a return to marriage.

“This miracle is called 10 years in one day,” she wrote, describing the moment as a divine intervention that replaced bitterness and chaos with calm and understanding.

10 Years History of Public Conflict

Tonto Dikeh and Churchill married in 2015, but their union collapsed shortly after, spiraling into one of Nollywood’s most public and controversial separations. The years that followed were marked by court cases, social media accusations, interviews, and bitter exchanges, drawing intense public attention.

For a long time, communication between both parties appeared completely broken. The actress has previously spoken about emotional trauma from the marriage, while Churchill also made counter-claims in public statements. The dispute became a recurring topic in Nigerian entertainment news for years.

Tonto’s latest post, however, signals a major shift in tone.

She expressed gratitude to Churchill “for yielding to God’s word and choosing peace,” emphasizing that the reconciliation was influenced by faith, humility, and prayers, particularly those of their child.

While some social media users speculated about a possible reunion, the actress did not suggest a return to their marriage. Instead, her words strongly pointed toward restored co-parenting and emotional closure, with a clear focus on raising their child in peace.

She described the change as one that came after “ten long years of public battles, broken communication, bitterness, and pain,” adding that what once looked impossible had been touched by mercy.

Observers note that the post reflects a more measured and reflective Tonto Dikeh, a contrast to the fiery tone that once defined her public persona during the height of the dispute.

Tonto Dikeh’s Personal Transformation

In recent years, Tonto Dikeh has openly spoken about her spiritual growth, therapy journey, and decision to step back from constant public drama. She has embraced faith more visibly, often sharing messages about healing, accountability, and inner peace.

The actress has also focused on philanthropy through her foundation, mental health advocacy, and motherhood, repeatedly stating that her son has been a major reason for her personal growth.

Fans and followers say the latest post reflects a woman who has evolved from reacting in pain to choosing peace, even when the process took years.

Reactions to the post have been mixed but largely emotional. Many fans praised Tonto for choosing healing and maturity, calling the moment inspiring and long overdue. Others urged caution, reminding the public that peace does not always mean reconciliation in the traditional sense.

Some supporters highlighted the importance of healthy co-parenting, applauding both parties for putting their child first after years of hostility.

As of now, Dr Kunle Churchill has not issued a public response to the post.
