The marriage between Nollywood star Regina Daniels and her billionaire husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, has once again come under public scrutiny after a series of emotional videos, allegations, and denials rocked social media in October 2025.
On October 18, 2025, a video surfaced online showing Regina Daniels in tears, claiming she could “no longer stand the violence.” In the now-viral clip, which quickly spread across Instagram and X (formerly Twitter), the actress appeared emotionally shaken, saying she felt “like nothing” in her husband’s home. Fans and fellow celebrities flooded social media with messages of concern, urging calm and privacy for the young mother of two.
In response, Senator Ned Nwoko released an official statement on October 19, 2025, addressing the incident. He denied all accusations of violence and instead alleged that Regina Daniels had been battling drug and alcohol abuse, claiming her behavior had recently become erratic and destructive. According to Nwoko, the actress had allegedly damaged property, assaulted staff, and threatened a nurse within a short period of time. He further added that he had offered help for her to undergo rehabilitation.
However, Regina’s elder brother, Samuel Daniels, strongly refuted the senator’s claims in a public statement issued on October 21, 2025. He defended his sister, describing the allegations as “false, misleading, and unfair.” Samuel insisted that Regina was not involved in any form of substance abuse and accused Ned Nwoko of attempting to manipulate public sympathy. “My sister is healthy, focused, and a loving mother. These are hurtful lies meant to damage her reputation,” he said.
As of today, October 22, 2025, there has been no confirmed report of divorce or legal separation between Regina Daniels and Ned Nwoko. Despite the social media storm, both remain legally married, though neither has been seen publicly together since the controversy erupted.
The couple’s marriage, which began in 2019, has long attracted attention due to their age difference and Nwoko’s polygamous lifestyle. Earlier this year, in March 2025, the senator announced that they were expecting their third child, dismissing rumors of separation at the time.
This unfolding saga has once again raised questions about the pressures of celebrity marriages in Nigeria, and how quickly social media can amplify private disputes into public spectacles. While fans continue to take sides, many are hoping the couple can resolve their differences privately and peacefully.
