Destiny Daniels, the younger sister of popular Nollywood actress Regina Daniels, is lighting up social media with a humorous but telling revelation about her love life.
In a recent video shared on TikTok, Destiny playfully admitted she’s on the hunt for a young boyfriend, but at the same time, she’s keeping a close eye on her sister Regina’s famously unconventional love story.
“As I dey find young boyfriend, I still dey observe my big sister path,” Destiny quipped with a smile.
Regina Daniels & the Unexpected Love Story
Destiny’s comment, though lighthearted, instantly sparked conversation online, especially as it references her sister’s headline-making marriage to billionaire businessman and politician Ned Nwoko in April 2019.
Regina, who was just 19 at the time, married Ned—a man 38 years her senior—in a move that shocked fans and critics alike. Despite the initial backlash, the couple has stood the test of time, celebrating five years of marriage this May with a loved-up photoshoot.
“It’s been a remarkable five years with so much love,” Regina wrote in her anniversary post.
Ned added, “These years have been good and eventful — and we’re just getting started.”
Regina Opens Up About Her Choice
Regina has always been candid about her relationship. In an interview, she explained her decision to marry an older man, saying:
“I’m a very stubborn person. I needed someone who could handle me and make me more submissive.”
Ned, for his part, has clarified that their relationship wasn’t arranged or orchestrated by her family. He revealed they met on their own and were married within just three weeks of knowing each other.
Family Opposition & Personal Agency
Last year, Regina went live on TikTok and made headlines again when she addressed rumors about her marriage. She revealed that her family initially opposed the union, but she stood her ground.
“I had over 20 boyfriends when I met Ned. I was even on my way to see one of them when I met him,” she confessed, dismissing claims that she was forced into marriage.
Destiny Watching Closely… But Choosing Her Own Path
With Regina’s bold love story setting the stage, it’s no surprise Destiny is torn between finding a young heartthrob and possibly taking a page from her sister’s playbook.
While it’s clear Destiny is joking (for now), fans are loving her wit and openness—seeing it as a blend of admiration and self-awareness. Whether she ends up with a sweet boy her age or takes the Regina route remains to be seen.
But one thing’s for sure: the Daniels sisters know how to keep the internet talking.
