Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh has publicly celebrated her ex-husband Olakunle Churchill during their son’s 10th birthday celebration, drawing attention for their warm and mature co-parenting moment.
The birthday celebration was organised as a football-themed party for their son, King Andre, in Abuja at the BMO Event Centre along Ahamdu Bello Way. The venue was filled with excitement, football-inspired decorations, cheering guests, and joyful family moments as the young boy marked his special day.
In a video shared from the event, Tonto openly praised Churchill, describing him as an amazing father. She expressed deep affection and prayed for his wellbeing, his family, and his business ventures. She wished him continued success, prosperity, and divine protection, praying that everything connected to him would flourish.
The actress also shared birthday photos featuring herself, Churchill, and their son. Alongside the images, she offered heartfelt prayers to God, thanking Him for her son’s life and growth. Fans admired the emotional maturity displayed in the public message, which reflected gratitude and peace rather than conflict.
Churchill also joined in the celebration by sharing photos of himself with his son. He expressed gratitude to God for the joy, laughter, and precious memories his son brings. He described the moment as deeply emotional and meaningful, while also appreciating Tonto for raising their son well.
Their public interaction follows earlier developments in their relationship. In January, Tonto surprised many fans when she publicly reached out to Churchill after years of disagreements, emotional pain, and public disputes. She revealed that she believed divine intervention helped bring healing and better communication between them.
Churchill later shared his own emotional experience after receiving a phone call from his son, King Andre, who called him “Daddy” for the first time. He described the moment as deeply touching and thanked Tonto for being a great mother to their child.
Tonto and Churchill married in 2015 but separated about two years later. Despite their separation, they have continued focusing on healthy co-parenting for the sake of their son’s happiness and emotional stability.
