Meanwhile, Regina Daniels has continued to spill more dirt concerning her marriage to Ned Nwoko.
She revealed this in response to Nwoko’s accusation on her Instagram page that she used illegal substances.
Daniels claimed that even though she trusted her ex-husband and shared her sex tape with him, the drug addiction accusations damaged her reputation.
The actress added that Nwoko had always been a step ahead of her in a bad way and expressed her wish that the sex tape would never be made public.
Finally, Regina asserted there was no legal marriage between them and said her time with Nwoko cost her prime years and career opportunities:
“No matter how much you think you spent on me, it can never equal the value of the time I gave you, my prime years, my energy, and the career opportunities I sacrificed while being with you.
