Nigerian actress Regina Daniels has opened up about her pain following reports of her messy separation from her husband, businessman and politician Ned Nwoko.

The actress took to social media on Sunday, November 9, 2025, to express her emotions, saying she feels broken and disappointed by how everything has unfolded.

“I’m so pained! I am ruined!! You all can laugh. But the laughter won’t be for long as long as I serve my God!” Regina wrote, adding that she was thankful for finding strength despite the situation.

“I have a lot more to say, but let me just stop here for now. I can only thank God that I found strength in that same house you tried to destroy me.”

The emotional post has drawn attention, as it marks a rare moment of vulnerability from the young actress, who has often been in the public eye since her teenage years. Regina and Ned Nwoko, 64 years old, got married in 2019 when she was 17 years old, a union that sparked wide discussions at the time due to their noticeable age difference. Their traditional wedding became a major topic online and in entertainment circles, with many people sharing divided opinions.

Once-admired couple

Over the years, Regina and Ned have often been seen together at events and on social media, where they appeared to have a happy family life. They share two sons, and their relationship was widely viewed as stable despite ongoing public scrutiny. However, her recent statement suggests deep emotional pain and a strained relationship.
