Tumisho spends time with daughter

In 2023, the former Saints and Sinners star was granted the opportunity to gain access to his baby girl. In the Instagram post on 30 December 2025, after fetching his daughter from the airport, Masha said he was unlawfully arrested because of an incident that the court found to be a false allegation of GBV.

"Today marks a full-circle moment for me. This morning, I collected my daughter at the airport to begin my half of the holidays. Eight years ago, on this very day, I was unlawfully arrested, a fact later confirmed by the courts, on a false accusation of kidnapping my own child, at a time when I wasn’t even granted sleepovers. Since then, I have spent years navigating the same legal battles, fighting simply to be a present and equal father," he wrote.

The actor celebrated this sweet victory, saying every struggle was worth this moment that he now gets to share with his baby girl.

"Every setback, every delay, every moment of injustice was worth it for the 50/50 contact I now get to enjoy. When Jesus says yes, nobody can say no. No person, no system, no circumstance is bigger than God’s plan," he shared.
