The public display has drawn attention online, as fans praise the couple for showing unity and thoughtfulness in celebrating their child despite their separation.
This came shortly after the actress abandoned her famed brand name 'King' in a surprise announcement, sparking reactions online.
On Monday, March 2, 2026, Tonto, who used to be known for her bold "King Tonto" persona amid past controversies like divorce and addiction struggles, announced that she was dropping the title in obedience to the Holy Spirit
The mother of one revealed she would prefer to be addressed as "Evangelist Tonto," "The Woman of God," "Tonto Dikeh," "Aunty Tonto," or "Big T" going forward.
She revealed it was part of her transformation from "a mess to a message."
This declaration aligned with her recent deepening faith journey. Recall that in December 2025, the actress testified about her salvation.
In February 2026, she graduated from Pastor Jerry Eze's discipleship class as she embraced a new spiritual turnaround.
"In obedience to the Holy Spirit, I will no longer be addresed as ‘King Tonto Dikeh.’ You can call me ‘The Woman of God,’ ‘Evangelist Tonto.’ I'm going from a mess to a message," she said in a video.
