Regina Daniels revealed that her mother and entire family were against her marriage to Ned Nwoko, the Senator from Delta North.
Disclosing this during a live on Instagram, the actress said: “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 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 tied the knot with Regina Daniels in May 2019 in the Aniocha Local Government Area of Delta State, despite their significant age difference.
The 63-year-old politician expressed that he chose to marry the 23-year-old actress because she hails from his community.
“For her particularly, I married her because she is from my place. I wanted to marry a wife from my place and was looking for the right person. By the time I met her, I knew she must be the one,” Nwoko had said.
