Nollywood star Regina Daniels has opened up about her children with her estranged husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, revealing the last time she saw them and her strong wish to have a daughter.
The actress spoke during a chat with TikTok content creator Jarvis inside a car shortly after her Children’s Day carnival on May 27.
The actress explained that she had not seen her boys since last year but remained hopeful that she would reunite with them soon. Regina Daniels mentioned how much they had grown, noting their ages and little milestones that made her emotional.
“Yeah, of course I miss them. But I know I’ll see them soon, by God’s grace. Insha’Allah. I saw them last year. They’re so good. My first one will be 6 this year. My second will be 4. And now my boy, his teeth fell off.”
The actress went further to share her thoughts about motherhood, saying she had once ruled out having a girl but now feels strongly about it. She admitted that marriage is no longer on her mind, saying she has mentally stepped away from the idea even though her longing for a daughter remains strong.
The mother of two explained that she believes raising a daughter gives a deeper understanding of motherhood. “But for some reason, I’ve checked my mind out of getting married. But I’m yet to have a girl, and I must have a girl. I feel like motherhood starts better. Like, you would understand motherhood when you have a girl child.”
Regina Daniels also spoke about the difference between raising boys and girls, stressing that boys look up to their fathers while girls often take their mothers as role models. “It’s easy to raise boys than girls because at least you groom them into having a role model figure as a father. But for your girl child, you have to be that role model for them to emulate.”
The actress added that while men grow up to build their own families, women tend to always remember home.
“But men would grow, they’ll get married, they’ll start their family, and they’ll be very, very like firm on building a family. But women, you could just easily—they would always remember home, like always.”
