Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has announced that she is no longer interested in getting married.
While speaking on a recent livestream with TikToker Jarvis, she said, for some reason, she has checked her mind out of getting married, but she needs to have a girl. According to her, motherhood starts better when one has a girl, and one tends to understand it better.
She explained that 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, one has to be that role model for them to emulate.
Daniels said before she had her first son, she said she would never have a girl child, but after her second, things changed.
“I have checked my mind out of getting married again, but I am yet to have a girl, and I must have a girl. I feel like you understand motherhood better when you have a girl. Having boys is easy; at least you teach them to have a role model in a father figure, but for the girl child, you have to be the role model. Before I had my first son, I said I would never have a girl, but after having my second son, I realised I want a girl child. A girl child remembers home. For men, they grow up, get married, and build their family, but women will always remember home.”
Elsewhere on the stream, she revealed that she had not seen her kids since last year. She, however, expressed hope of seeing them soon and gushed over their growth.
Recall that in November, Regina ended things with him citing domestic violence as her reasons for leaving her marriage.
Ned, in a public statement, had attributed the tension to what he described as her “battle with drugs and alcohol abuse.” According to Nwoko, his efforts to help his wife seek professional treatment are always resisted.
In an interview with NAN, the politician explained that he wants Regina to go to rehab to be alive and healthy, not just for himself, but for their children.
Last year, Regina called out Ned for constantly publicising her children to garner negative attention from their father. She pointed out the irony that someone of his status could be posting his kids at this time, knowing fully well it would attract media scrutiny.
Responding to her, Nwoko described her account as misleading and inconsistent with their family’s past practices. He said that sharing photos and videos of the children had always been a normal part of family life. According to him, Regina Daniels had also posted the children publicly for years without raising privacy concerns. Nwoko stated that her absence from the children’s lives was a personal choice, not something imposed on her.
