The mother of one made the disclosure while responding to a fan on Instagram who asked if she would consider tattoo removal following her spiritual transformation.
“Yes love, I would have, but I’m stuck with them and I ain’t doing no laser to spoil my good skin. And the good thing is Jesus don’t care,” Dikeh wrote.
Tonto’s recent faith journey has seen her share videos of live prayer sessions, speaking in tongues, and public declarations of her renewed life. She emphasised that her tattoos do not affect her devotion to Christ.
The actress also recently announced that she would be selective about people and brands she engages with in 2026, vowing not to associate with anyone hostile to her, her faith, or her pastor.
Fans and commentators reacted with mixed views. Some supported her decision, noting that “Jesus don’t care,” while others questioned the authenticity of her repentance or referenced biblical perspectives on tattoos.
