Last night, during a TikTok live with influencer Jarvis, when asked the last time she saw her children, Regina made a statement that stood out: “The last time I saw my children was last year. I know one day I’ll see them again, very soon.”
She kept talking, “For some reason I have checked my mind out of getting married, but I’m yet to have a girl, and I must have a girl child. I feel like you’d understand motherhood better when you have a girl child.”
Regina has two sons but still wants a daughter, and she sounds nothing like the teenager she was six years ago. 
The Girl Who Wanted an Older Man
To understand just how much she has evolved, one has to rewind to 2019. At just 18, Regina shocked the entertainment industry by marrying Senator Ned Nwoko, a politician in his 60s with five wives already.
When Regina got married, a lot of people felt it wasn’t for the right reasons. Critics called it a “money marriage”, while her fans said it was love and desired to be in her exact position.
Regina’s response to the backlash became legendary. “I would rather cry inside a Bentley than cry in a Keke,” she reportedly said. A tricycle or a luxury car. Struggle or comfort. She chose comfort. She chose the Bentley and regularly flaunted the money he gave her.
Regina also made no secret of her preference for older men. She previously said she had always wanted to marry someone twice her age. Maturity. Stability. Protection. That was the appeal.
At 18, those words made sense to her. At 25, standing in her house, speaking about being “checked out of marriage”, she no longer does.
What Happened in Between
The marriage lasted about six years. Two sons. Public appearances. Family vacations. Then October 2025 arrived, and everything collapsed.
A video surfaced of Regina crying and shouting about domestic violence.
“In Ned Nwoko’s house, I am nothing. Not again. I can’t stand the violence anymore.”
Ned Nwoko responded swiftly, denying the allegations and instead claiming Regina was battling drug and alcohol addiction and needed rehabilitation.
She denied his accusations, but the situation quickly escalated. Ned released private WhatsApp messages, while Regina moved into her mansion. He insisted she needed therapy before seeing their children again; she maintained that she was being kept away from her sons.
By early 2026, the separation was effectively over. Ned declared he would never take her back, while Regina said the experience had left her traumatised by the institution of marriage.
The Contradiction
Regina’s stance today is entirely different from what it was then. The eighteen-year-old who defended her marriage to a sixty-year-old billionaire saw only security; at twenty-five, she now sees that same marriage as a trap.
No amount of luxury can compensate for the agony of being separated from her children for months. Her perspective on family has evolved—she still desires a daughter, but now she wants to experience motherhood entirely on her own terms.

The Bottom Line
“No more marriage” from a woman who once famously claimed she would rather cry in a Bentley is not hypocrisy; it is evidence that wealth cannot shield someone from heartbreak. Her story proves that marrying a man twice your age does not guarantee happiness, and that the same person can hold two opposing truths at different stages of life.
Regina wanted an older man, luxury, and children. She got all of it—including two boys. But now she wants out, choosing instead to focus on the sons she feels she’s been missing. That is not a contradiction. That is growth; painful, public, and expensive growth.
