Nollywood star Regina Daniel
Thursday, October 10, 2019 was Nollywood star Regina Daniel’s birthday.
As usual every year, the Asaba, Delta State-born undergraduate of Igbinedion University was well celebrated in real life and on the social media.
But one thing that baffled her colleagues, friends and fans was the mathematics surrounding the age of the secrets-keeping actress.
Two years ago (2017), Regina whose mother, Rita Daniels, is equally an actress while her biological father is still wrapped with utmost secrecy, celebrated 17. Last year (2018) she claimed to be 19 on her birthday. Last Thursday she celebrated 22.
Well, some busybodies have used the Pythagoras’s Theorem to try to determine where her real age actually lies – 16, 17, 19 or 22.
At the same time, some are attributing her miraculous age leap to the multi-million naira she must now be enjoying after her traditional marriage as 6th wife (yes, you heard me well)to billionaire Senator Ned Nwoko earlier in the year.
Whatever be the case, what is important is that the controversial actress who came to limelight in 2010 when she featured in the movie Miracle Child has the right to claim any age on every October 10.
After all, who wants to be romantically involved with an under aged?
If in doubt, consult a human rights lawyer.
For this year of her marriage, let’s click our glasses as we celebrate Regi Baby at 22.Hip hip hip, hurray!
