Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has opened up about the opposition she faced from her family regarding her marriage to Nigerian politician Ned Nwoko.

The actress shared this during a live session on her social media handle where she addressed rumors surrounding her decision to marry the politician who is significantly older.

Regina Daniels revealed that her mother and family were initially against the union.

She also disclosed that, at the time she met Nwoko she had other suitors but later chose the politician.

The actress said, “I was going to visit my boyfriend, I was so angry, I was like mum, ‘Why do we all need to go visit and go sightseeing?’. But when we got there, we met a cute man. Moral of the story: Your boyfriend should not stop you from finding your husband.”

“When I saw him with my husband, I forgot I was supposed to have a boyfriend. At that time, I had like 20 boyfriends. All serving different purposes. When people think I didn’t have a choice or my mum forced me, not knowing that my mum was against it. My full family said No, but one day, I am going to share our story,” she added.
