Ten years after bitter split, Tonto Dikeh, Churchill find peace

118

Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh, has announced a turning point in her long-running feud with her ex-husband, Olakunle Churchill, revealing that they have finally made peace after a decade of public dispute.

In a lengthy and emotional post shared on her Instagram page, the actress disclosed that what years of human effort could not resolve was ultimately settled through faith, humility, and divine intervention.

Tonto reflected on the painful journey that followed their separation, describing ten years marked by public battles, deep emotional wounds, broken communication, bitterness, and unresolved anger that often played out in the public space.

According to her, the situation had appeared ugly, impossible, and beyond repair, but she believes God stepped in at a point when reconciliation seemed unattainable, turning chaos into calm and hostility into mutual respect.

“After ten long years of public battles, deep wounds, broken communication, bitterness, and pain, God stepped in,” she wrote.

“What looked ugly, impossible, and beyond repair has been touched by mercy. Peace has replaced chaos. Respect has returned where anger once lived.”

The actress noted that the reconciliation was not achieved through force, logic, or personal strength, but through spiritual growth, salvation, and what she described as the sincere prayers of a child, which softened hearts and changed the narrative.

“This restoration is not by might, not by wisdom, not by strength—but by the Spirit of the Lord,” Tonto stated, adding that God has a way of rewriting stories that appear finished and silencing negativity when hearts are yielded.

She further expressed gratitude to Churchill, whom she referred to as the father of her child, for choosing peace and yielding to what she described as God’s word, noting that obedience often births restoration even after prolonged pain.

“I am deeply grateful to the father of my child, Dr Kunle, for yielding to God’s word and choosing peace,” she wrote.

“Obedience to God always births restoration, even when the road has been long and painful.”

Beyond her personal story, Tonto used the moment to encourage others facing similar conflicts, particularly those who feel wounded, misunderstood, or abandoned, assuring them that delayed healing does not mean a finished story.

“To anyone standing where I once stood, tired, wounded, misunderstood, and believing nothing good can come out of the situation, please hear this: God has not abandoned you. Your story is not over,” she said.

She prayed that the renewed relationship between herself and Churchill would remain grounded in mercy, grace, protection, and divine guidance, describing it as a living testimony of faith and perseverance.

“May this restored relationship remain built on the solid rock of God’s mercy, protection, grace, and mighty hand,” she added, insisting that their reconciliation stands as proof that God never fails or walks away from His own.

Acknowledging her spiritual father’s influence, Tonto expressed gratitude for the guidance that has fueled her personal evolution.

She remains humble about her journey, viewing herself as an ongoing project defined by her commitment to faith and self-discipline.
