She is now her son’s father.
That was the message portrayed today when Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh turned up as Daddy King today in her son’s school as they marked Fathers’ Day.
Tonto was dressed in kaftan and pair of trousers accessorized with a cap just like her estranged husband, Olakunle Churchill. She also introduced her hsuband’s beard on her face!
Tonto’s make-up artist must have gone through pains to get this look.
Indeed, the son must have seen ‘a bit of daddy’ in his mum and enjoyed his day.
The couple got married on August 29, 2015.
Signs of cracks in her marriage surfaced in January 2017 when Tonto supposedly changed her profile biodata on Instagram.
Then, another actress, Rosaline Meurer was fingered as the mistress her husband was having an affair with.
Rosaline denied and debunked the news making the rounds—she never slept with Tonto’s husband.
Then, the birthday of their son, King Andre, put paid to all runours—both husband and wife started talking on social media to fans on the state of their marriage.
The husband also confirmed in an interview that she had left with his son and he could not reach her.
He said, “Oh! My son, I sure miss him so much. I have planned a worthwhile birthday party for him with friends and family members but it’s sad to say that all effort to reach him proved abortive, and this is affecting my business and emotions, The mum won’t pick calls and the nanny, Our son has been with the mother and not at home for now. I truly, should not be granting this interview if this is all about my family. I am very optimistic that the family will unite together for King Andrea birthday even though channels to reach my wife are temporarily off. “
Tonto confirmed this on her son’s birthday when she celebrated with the baby and a few friends without his dad who is the founder of Big Church Foundation, A non profit organization.
Tonto, who celebrated her birthday recently, has not attempted returning to her matrimonial home, hence her current state as a single mum.
On her appearance today in son’s school acting as father, she wrote and shared a video on Instagram:
“JUICY MAN’s(KINGY) School father’s day celebration today.. I Showed Up For my Son.. #PROUD MOTHER #KINGTONTO #AMOTHERSLOVE #KINGY #CHAMPIONS #I AM BLESSED #I AM A WOMAN,I AM STRONG,I AM BLACK AND I AM PROUD OF THESE..” (sic)
