Regina Daniels says she is no longer interested in marriage

Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has said she is no longer interested in getting married following her separation from estranged husband, Ned Nwoko.

 

The actress, however, said she still hopes to have more children, particularly a daughter, whom she described as important to her experience of motherhood.

 

Daniels made the remarks during a livestream with TikToker Jarvis at her Children’s Day carnival in Asaba, Delta State.

 

“But for some reason, I’ve checked my mind out of getting married. I’m yet to have a girl. And I must have a girl,” she said.

 

The mother of two explained that raising a girl child comes with a unique emotional responsibility for mothers.

 

“I feel like motherhood starts better. Like you would understand motherhood when you have a girl child. So, having boys is easy because at least you can groom them to have a role model in a father figure.

 

“But for your girl child, you have to be that role model for them to emulate,” she said.

 

Daniels also spoke about family bonds, saying women often remain emotionally connected to their homes even after marriage.

 

“Men will grow, get married and focus more on building family. But for women, she will always remember home,” she added.

 

Daniels and Nwoko got married in 2019 and have two sons together. Their marriage attracted widespread attention because of their age difference.

 

The relationship later became publicly strained in 2025 following allegations and counter-allegations between the pair, after which the actress announced that she had moved out and was now single.
