For days now, Nigerian social media has been buzzing with drama involving actress Rosy Meurer, her husband Olakunle Churchill, and his ex-wife, actress Tonto Dikeh.
The fresh round of trolling started after Tonto Dikeh recently announced that she had reconciled with her ex-husband for the sake of their son. The development became more public when the former couple appeared together during their son Andre’s 10th birthday photoshoot.
Soon after, Rosy Meurer’s name began trending on gossip platforms, especially on popular blog pages. Netizens, often called “online in-laws,” shifted their attention to her, accusing her of being uneasy about the renewed peace between Tonto and Churchill.
Trouble deepened when Rosy released a viral video to “tell her truth.” In the video, she said she never took another woman’s husband and claimed that Tonto was never her friend. According to her, she had never even met Tonto before marrying Churchill.
However, social media users quickly dug out an old interview Rosy granted years ago. In that interview, she reportedly described Churchill as “like a brother” and said she had once spent time with Tonto as family. The two different stories did not sit well with many netizens.
This contradiction sparked heavy trolling. Some users nicknamed her “queen of restlessness and explanations,” while others went as far as circulating AI-generated videos of Tonto and her ex-husband kissing, just to provoke reactions online.
Many expected Tonto Dikeh to fire back, but that never happened. Since declaring herself a born-again Christian, she has stayed away from online fights and drama. Instead, she maintained silence and calm.
At her son’s birthday celebration, Tonto even praised Churchill as a good father and prayed for all his children. She was quoted as saying, “You are an amazing father. I love you with the love of God.”
Observers believe Tonto’s quiet attitude may have encouraged netizens to take up the fight on her behalf. With no direct response from her, online users continued to troll Rosy daily, insisting that her statements did not add up.
For now, while Tonto keeps her peace and focuses on co-parenting, Rosy Meurer remains at the centre of social media criticism, proving once again that in celebrity matters, netizens are always ready to play judge and jury
