Tonto Dikeh, a well-known Nollywood actress, has shared why divorcing her husband was the finest choice she has ever made.
In response to a question from a single mother asking for guidance on adjusting to life after separation, she posted this on Instagram.
Tonto responded, making it clear that she was the one who decided to end her marriage and stressing that it was in the best interests of both herself and her son.
She emphasised, “First and foremost, I was the one who chose to walk away from my marriage, not the other way around. It was a difficult situation, and I needed to escape, not just for my sake but for my child’s too. It was the best decision I ever made.”
The actress continued, asking the single mother, who had messaged her privately, how she handled life after her ex-husband abandoned her and their child, and offering encouragement.
Tonto counseled her to put her child’s welfare first and concentrate on her own development.
“Remember, you have the power to become the person you aspire to be if you commit to your growth and invest in yourself.”
“Always prioritize the well-being of your children, while seeking strength and guidance from God,” She continued.
Tonto added that there are occasions when a relationship’s termination heralds the arrival of new blessings.
She did, however, counsel fighting for the marriage if it is still worth preserving.
As at the moment she replied, “I don’t have all the answers, and I’m no expert in this journey. My biggest teacher has been love. I let God do His thing, and that has been enough for me. Draw your strength from God, and most importantly, keep your family matters private.”
