During the week ex-wife of singer, 9ice, Toni Payne, made a public announcement that she has forgiven her ex husband whom she has a son for after six years.

Many were surprise at this development and had waited to see the singer's reaction to the new development and indeed, the singer was happy about it.

He recently told Punch that he was happy that Toni had forgiven him. 9ice stated that all along when they were not together that they still talk but the public never got to know which is why they keep peddling rumours about.

He said, “I saw the write-up my ex-wife posted on the internet where she wrote that she has forgiven me after six years. It is a very good development and I am happy she had forgiven me after all these years. Contrary to public opinion we have been friends all these while. The most important thing is that even when things are not working or they are not the way they should seem with a person, you should endeavour to remain friends with the person. That is very important. We are friends and we remain friends.”
