Regina Daniels defends viral ’20 Boyfriends’ claim, advocates abstinence
Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has addressed the controversy surrounding her recent statement about having 20 boyfriends before marrying billionaire politician Ned Nwoko.
Daniels, 24, initially sparked debate with a TikTok livestream where she claimed to have had multiple suitors at 19, emphasizing she had choices. However, her comment was misinterpreted, leading to widespread speculation.
In a clarifying Instagram post on October 30, 2024, Daniels stressed that having numerous male friends willing to do favors didn’t obligate her to intimacy. She proudly revealed maintaining her virginity until marriage, fulfilling a personal promise.
“I had a lot [of suitors], but I made a promise to keep my virginity till my marriage. And guess what? I did!!!,” Daniels wrote.
The actress’s statement aimed to educate young girls on self-worth and the importance of abstaining from sex until marriage.
Daniels’ marriage to Nwoko, 59, in 2019 drew significant attention due to their age gap and whirlwind romance.
