The shower diverter is loose or broken inside and needs to be changed.
A bathtub diverter works by redirecting the flow of water from the tub spout to the showerhead when the diverter is engaged. This is typically done by a mechanism inside the diverter that blocks the flow of water to the tub spout and instead directs it to the showerhead. When the diverter is disengaged, the water flows out of the tub spout as usual.
To fix a leaking tub spout diverter, you can try replacing the diverter valve or the O-rings inside the diverter. First, turn off the water supply to the tub. Then, remove the diverter handle and the diverter valve. Inspect the valve and O-rings for any damage or wear. Replace any damaged parts with new ones. Reassemble the diverter and test to see if the leak is fixed. If the problem persists, you may need to seek professional help.

The aisle seat is inside, window seat outside.
If you are simply replacing the inside parts of the diverter, then you do it just by unscrewing the cap under the handle and pulling out the main ball. If you cannot get the same parts,which may happen if it's old, then you will have to fit an entire new diverter. If you are removing the entire diverter then you must remove enough of the tile etc, and wall to expose all connections. I have done a few and generally cut all 4 pipes about 6" away from the diverter. I then fit the new diverter in place and make the pipes meet the diverter with short sections of PEX joined to the old pipes with brass compression fittings, and to the diverter with PEX MIP fittings.. Test thoroughly before restoring any parts of the wall. Once you are certain it all works perfectly you can restore the wall and tiles.
