2026 is officially giving positive vibes only, healing, self-discovery — and a brand-new chapter for Nollywood star Regina Daniels.
Here’s the thing, 2025 was a lot for the actress. From the shocking drama surrounding her highly publicized split from her alleged ex-husband, billionaire Prince Ned Nwoko, to the jaw-dropping revelations that spilled out during the divorce saga, fans were glued to their screens as one headline after another dropped.
As if that wasn’t enough, Regina’s brother Sammy’s arrest only added fuel to an already blazing fire. And that whole drama played out across social media, right before our eyes.
New year, New Regina!
But fast-forward to now — it’s a new year, and Regina is clearly done with chaos. No drama, no messy energy, no looking back.
The actress recently took to Instagram to express gratitude to everyone who stood by her during what she described as the most challenging season of her life in 2025. She also gave thanks to God for His grace, strength, and excellence over her life.
With emotions laid bare and sincerity dripping from every word, Regina poured out her heart — and this is exactly what she had to say:
“The past few months of my life have been nothing short of heavy. one of those seasons that tries to sit on your chest and ask, “So, what are we doing next?” It has been a major turning point, one that shook me to my core. Everything I had ever known was drowning right in front of me. But here’s the plot twist…I didn’t drown with it. Why? Because I was carried by overwhelming love, support, patience, and understanding from my family, my friends, members of the general public. And for that, I am forever grateful. After much reflection (and a few very long conversations with myself), I decided to take this test because I owe it to the people who stood by me, the people who love me, and the people who look up to me. Integrity matters. Accountability matters. Peace of mind especially matters,” wrote Regina.
Choosing her own narrative
In continuation of her message, Regina wrote:
“One thing that echoed loudly across the media was, “Regina is a drug addict.” And honestly? I paused, then I checked again. I looked at myself in the mirror repeatedly, searching for this so-called addict. I searched so hard it almost felt like I was going psychic…because surely, I must be missing something. That’s when it hit me! people often project their fears, insecurities, and negativity onto you. But projection is not reality, and noise is not truth. Here’s the choice we all have to make: Do you allow yourself to be defined by other people’s opinions, or do you create your own narrative? As for me, I choose the latter every single time. The same mouth that was used to spoil my name is the same mouth that will build it back up,” wrote Regina.
A chapter of growth
She ended her message by saying:
“This chapter of my life is now about self discovery, self growth, and becoming even more intentional about who I am and where I’m going. I thank God endlessly for His grace, His strength, and His excellence in my life..because if there’s one thing I know for sure, it’s that He has carried me through it all. I’m still standing, still growing and just getting started. And yes… we move. Happy new year everyone,” wrote Regina.
