Popular Nollywood actress Regina Daniel has revealed that she met her billionaire husband, Ned Nwoko, during an outing with one of her ex-boyfriends.
In a candid disclosure, Regina mentioned that she had about 20 boyfriends at the time, each responsible for different aspects of her needs.
Despite her mother and entire family’s opposition, Regina decided to marry the Delta North Senator.
The actress and mother of two shared these personal insights, highlighting the complexities of her past relationships and the challenges she faced in her marriage decision.
Disclosing this during a live session on TikTok, the actress said in part:
“I went to visit my boyfriend and I was so angry about why we had to go sightseeing, but when we got there I met a cute man.
“The moral of the story is that your boyfriend should not stop you from seeing your husband.
“When I started with my husband I forgot I was supposed to have boyfriends; of course, I had like 20. When people think I don’t have a choice, I’m like what?
“People were saying mummy forced me not knowing that she was against the marriage, my full family said no.”

Nwoko married Regina Daniels in May 2019 in Aniocha Local Government Area, Delta State despite the huge gap in age.
Explaining why he married the 23-year-old actress, the 63-year-old politician said he tied the knot because Regina Daniels is from his place.
“For her particularly, I married her because she is from my place. I wanted to marry a wife from my place, and I was looking for the right person. By the time I met her, I knew she must be the one,” Nwoko had said.
