Prominent Nigerian comedian and actor, Nedu, recently shared his perspective on the marriage between billionaire businessman Ned Nwoko and young actress Regina Daniels. During a recent episode of his popular podcast, “Honest Bunch,” Nedu expressed his belief that many women who had criticized Daniels for marrying an older man like Nwoko would readily embrace a similar opportunity if it came their way.
Acknowledging the initial backlash faced by Regina Daniels and Ned Nwoko when news of their relationship broke out on social media, Nedu commended the couple and shed light on the ironic behavior of some individuals. He stated, “Shoutout to Ned Nwoko and Regina Daniels. When the whole thing came on social media, everybody went berserk. Everybody was like, ‘What is Regina Daniels thinking?’ But everybody is secretly praying to have what Regina Daniels has. If Ned Nwoko were to come forward and announce, ‘I want to marry every Lagos girl, one by one,’ countless ladies would eagerly line up for the chance.“
The humorous yet thought-provoking statement made by Nedu highlighted a certain degree of hypocrisy within society, where individuals may publicly criticize unconventional relationships while secretly desiring a similar situation for themselves. Nwoko’s relationship with Daniels garnered considerable attention and became a topic of widespread discussion, with some questioning the motives behind their union. However, Nedu’s assertion challenges the notion that the criticisms were entirely genuine, suggesting that many women might have been envious of Daniels’ newfound marital bliss.

Supporting his claim, Nedu referred to a recent social media post in which Nwoko was seen opening a car door for his wife. The post drew comments expressing admiration for the couple and longing for a similar partnership. Nedu humorously summarized the sentiments, stating, “Awnn! Couple goals. God when?”This playfully captures the wistful yearning shared by many who secretly hope to find a love like that of Regina Daniels and Ned Nwoko.
