"I did have a lot of boyfriends, but I kept my virginity until marriage," Regina Daniels clarifies on having "20 boyfriends."

Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has clarified a recent statement she made, where she humorously mentioned having “20 boyfriends” before meeting her husband, billionaire Ned Nwoko. The comment, made during a TikTok live session, initially raised eyebrows, as she shared that she met Ned while on her way to visit one of her boyfriends. Regina also used the opportunity to advise young women not to let current boyfriends prevent them from meeting their future husbands.

In a follow-up post on Instagram, the mother of two explained that while she indeed had male friends willing to support her, she chose to keep her virginity until marriage. She stressed that multiple friendships with men don’t obligate any physical involvement, and her decision to stay chaste until marriage was a “big flex.” Regina added that she wanted to reassure her husband and educate young girls, reminding them of the importance of setting boundaries.

“Hey everyone, I want to clarify the 20 boyfriend ish solely to soothe my husband and also educate young girls that having several male/boyfriends willing to do things for you doesn’t mean you owe them your body,” Regina wrote. “And oh yes, I did have a lot, but I made a promise to keep my virginity till my marriage. And guess what? I did!”
