Businessman Olakunle Churchill has reunited with his ex-wife, Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh, and their son, King Andre, bringing an end to a decade-long and highly publicised feud. The former couple, who were once locked in a bitter dispute, appear to have put their differences aside following renewed communication initiated by Dikeh.

In a recent Instagram post, Churchill revealed that he was “pleasantly surprised” when his son called him “Daddy” for the first time, describing the moment as a powerful reminder of God’s grace. The reconciliation was facilitated by popular clergyman Pastor Jerry Eze, who has served as a spiritual mentor to Dikeh over the years.

Dikeh praised Eze for helping her find peace and forgiveness, writing, “God has a way of rewriting stories men thought were over.” She expressed deep gratitude to the clergyman, adding, “This is grace speaking… and Hearts for Jesus obeying. Time failed. Grace prevailed. Time could not cancel what God ordained. Restoration has a voice, and today it spoke.”

Churchill also spoke warmly about his former partner, describing Dikeh as “the amazing mother of my son” and thanking her for her commitment to raising their child. The reunion has sparked widespread reactions online, with fans and well-wishers applauding the former couple for choosing reconciliation and prioritising their son’s well-being.
