Tonto Dikeh confirms she has left her husband, says he has not checked up on their son since the split
For weeks, there has been rumours that Tonto Dikeh's marriage to
Oladunni Olakunle Churchill has crashed. Today, Tonto took to her
Instagram page to confirm that she has left her husband and she took her
son with her.
In response to a letter a concerned fan wrote to
her, Tonto revealed she has left her marriage with her son and
that she gave her husband access to their son but that he has not
checked up on him. Read what she wrote and the letter from the concerned
fan after the cut...
"Dear 'concerned' fan, Good day.
How are you and your family? My regards, love and greetings to them.
Now
to address a little bit of your letter, firstly I say I do appreciate
your concern. Then I move on to say thank you. When a woman leaves her
husband, she takes her child because absolutely nothing else matters to
her but the child. This is what I did and I happily give all access for
his father to see him. Now my question to you is that did your source
also tell you that he has never called for once to Ask how his son is
doing? I will admit, I personally blocked his access to me for the sake
of my emotional stability. But nonetheless he has the nannys no, my
assistants contact,my part time helps number, and many other mediums of
reaching the son your source claims I "took away". He could use all
possible mediums wisely if he wished to.
Secondly I will let you go
on the ill talk on smoking as I would love to believe you were just sent
and ignored my drug test result or you never even saw it in the first
place..
As an acclaimed "concerned fan" I expect you to pray and not to indirectly throw "concerned" shades..
What
goes on in my marriage and home is my personal life, i'm grateful for
all the years of support you all have been giving me but when it comes
to the matters of the heart have enough respect to let us go thru our
moments alone.. Like I said earlier your prayers for wisdom on both
parties wld be more appreciated. No one knows what goes on behind close
doors...I chose to make you believe and see what I wanted you all to see
in order to protect even those that did not deserve protection. My dear
friend that's called marriage!!! God bless you immensely for even
thinking about my family, God has never failed, God never sleeps nor
slumbers, He is a just God. He never brings us this far to leave us, We
will be ok.. Once again thank you so much my "concerned" friend and have
a blessed day!!!"
Here is the letter from the concerned fan
"I
have been a long time passionate fan of you - Mrs Tonto Dikeh Churchill
or do I remove the surname? Your movies from your early days of
breaking into the nollywood industry arrested attention anytime, as the
toast of most industry movie directors for scripts. As one of your fans,
it bleeds my heart to hear of the unpleasant stories coming from your
home especially as you used your fans influence based to react at any
latest provocation as if you are lead actress in a home movie.
My
dearest Tonto Dikeh, we your fans are instrumental to your fame. Your
marriage breakup is the prayers of some of your colleagues and those
your actions have offended directly or indirectly. I expected that any
challenge in your home should be kept private and away from social
media. I want to believe that God blessed you with a loving husband who
seem to give all you want but though, there is saying that he who wears
the shoe knows where it pinches. Truly, your fans in Rivers state are
proud of your height in the industry but we plead that you let sleeping
dog lie.
The accusation and counter- accusations of smoking
while breastfeeding, negative reactions of destroying properties and
alleged infidelity from your husband - Olakunle Churchill can not be
confirmed by the public. We draw our conclusion from the buzzes on
social media. Beware of those you draw close as your friend especially
in relation to your marriage except we will eventually write a movie
script about your home, marriage and social media influence and sell to
major directors like Chico Ejiro, Teco Benson, Tchidi Chikere etc with a
caption " Last Celebrity Marriage"
It's sad to think that the
supposed settled marriage crisis in your union still persist
indirectly as feelers have it that you choose to subject your husband to
emotional torture by taking the child - King Andrea away from him
because of his affection for the little boy. My prayer is that you don't
take your beloved son to another controversial Maurijuana smoker's home
as attacked .My sister, which I choose to call you, please the drama
upon drama in your home if true can be attributed to you going back to
your old life of smoking. When you got married, we your fans were happy
that you finally settled down inspite of our supposed believe of your
reckless movie life but alas, it's truly a reflection of your life in
marriage even when we thought motherhood has changed you. Advising you
to borrow a leaf from some notable scandal free celebrity actresses
would not have been good considering your status, but am forced to tell
you to screen into their marital life.
My beloved super actress,
the tag " controversial actress" which you got stuck with you since
your early days of smoking in movies, close intimacy in acting and bad
girl disposition do not make us believe is your true reflection but a
conscious impressive interpretation of your roles. For the sake of your
son - King Andrea and the love show from your husband as posted by you
each time on social media, just put your home together- indeed, it's
your responsibility. We are happy the family crisis is been silient and
we strongly believe there is peace at home now. Besides your peace at
home, the gist of you breaking things in your mother -inlaw's house and
pushing her down in attempt to calm you down is not only disgusting but
embarrassingly misleading if we truly have to believe that.
Well,
I do not know much about your husband maybe because he is not a showbiz
person but perhaps a philanthropist. But I think we might not judge him
from social media stories. With time his true identity will be known,
not only then we can write to him too.... value what you have which you
made us believe he is your lovely Mr X, your irreplaceable Hero and
your protective superman.
Mama King, he that has ear let him hear, for the voices of the fans are the voices of fame or destruction.
I rest my case
