The emotional reunion featured popular clergyman Pastor Jerry Eze. The heartwarming moment was shared on Tonto Dikeh’s social media pages, where she expressed gratitude and reflected on the divine nature of the reunion.
Amid the announcement, Tonto silently revealed she has reverted her son’s surname to Churchill following their reconciliation with his father.

At the time, Tonto openly described herself as both mother and father to the child, having removed her ex-husband’s name amid their highly publicised fallout.
However, with peace now restored between the ex-couple, the actress has taken a new step that reflects their renewed relationship and commitment to co-parenting.
In a recent Instagram post shared with her followers, Tonto Dikeh posted photos of herself, Churchill, and their son.
In the caption, she referred to the child as King Andre Churchill, signalling the return of his father’s surname.
See the post below:
This reunion comes a month after Tonto reconciled with her ex-husband, revealing that after ten years of public battles, deep wounds, broken communication, and pain, God intervened.
Speaking for the first time about the reunion, Churchill admitted he was pleasantly surprised when his son called him “Daddy” for the first time. He described the moment as deeply touching and a reminder of God’s limitless power. Churchill also praised Tonto for her role as an amazing mother.
In the comment section, Tonto affectionately referred to Churchill as “Big Church,” celebrating the moment and the restored bond between father and son.
