Nigerian actress Regina Daniels has addressed the controversy surrounding her recent comments about having “20 boyfriends” before marrying billionaire Ned Nwoko.
In an Instagram post on Wednesday, Daniels clarified that she lost her virginity to her husband, contrary to speculation that she had been intimate with multiple partners prior to their marriage.
Daniels explained that her previous statement was meant to empower young women, emphasizing that having male friends does not obligate them to physical relationships.
“I promised to keep my virginity until marriage. And guess what? I did! It’s a big flex,” Daniels stated.
The actress faced backlash after revealing during a live social media session that she had “20 boyfriends” providing for her needs before meeting Nwoko.
Daniels reassured her fans that her relationships before marriage were platonic, and she chose to remain a virgin until marrying Nwoko.
The controversy sparked debate about relationships, virginity, and societal expectations.
Regina Daniels’ clarification has sparked mixed reactions, with some supporting her empowerment message and others questioning the timing and context of her initial statement.
