According to a report by Nigerian Tribune on Thursday, May 28, 2026, Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has said she has mentally stepped away from marriage, even as she continues to say she wants more children and remains especially eager to have a daughter.
She made the statement during a livestream conversation with TikTok personality Jarvis at her Children’s Day carnival held in Asaba, Delta State.
The exchange came in the course of the celebration, where Daniels spoke openly about her present mindset regarding family and motherhood.
In her comments, Daniels made it clear that her thoughts on marriage have shifted significantly.

The actress, who is already a mother of two, spoke in a way that connected her present family life with her future plans.
Her remarks placed attention on both the number of children she hopes to have and the desire for a daughter, which she described as something she must have.
The full comment she made during the livestream was: “But for some reason, I’ve checked my mind out of getting married. I’m yet to have a girl. And I must have a girl,” she said.
