Popular Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has shared an emotional video where she tearfully expressed her struggles and frustration over recent family challenges, admitting she feels overwhelmed and mentally drained.
In the video posted on her Instagram Story early Friday morning, the actress appeared visibly distraught as she spoke about reaching her breaking point.
“I tried. I feel like I’m going crazy, losing my mind, and it’s not making any sense. I’m really crying in front of everyone,” she said in the clip.
Just a day earlier, Daniels had celebrated the reconciliation of her parents, who had reportedly been estranged for years. She revealed that their reunion was solely for her happiness.
“Two sworn enemies reunited with no hidden motives — just to make their daughter happy,” she wrote.
According to Daniels, her parents are currently in Abuja, working together to secure the release of her brother, Sammy, who has allegedly been detained for several days.
“Sammy’s detention is dragging on for too long, but we’ll get him out, even if I have to go there myself and cause a storm. Since they want me, they’ll get me!” she added.
In another clip, fellow actress Mercy Johnson was seen searching for Sammy. In the video, Johnson said, “He’s not here,” before vowing to continue looking elsewhere.
Fighting back tears, Daniels expressed deep frustration and hinted at returning to her husband’s home.
“What am I even begging for? Every day I wake up hoping to hear good news about my brother’s release, but it’s always something else. I’ve tried. I have to go back,” she said.
The emotional outburst follows earlier reports suggesting Daniels was experiencing domestic problems in her marriage.
Back on October 18, a viral video showed her crying and saying:
“In Ned Nwoko’s house, I am nothing. But in my house, I am a queen. Not again. I can’t stand the violence; it’s too much.”
Her husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, denied the allegations, claiming that Daniels’ behavior was linked to “drug and alcohol abuse” and insisting she needed rehabilitation.
On Wednesday, Daniels released another emotional video asking Nigerians to stop criticizing her mother, whom she described as her “pillar and protector.” She also vowed to protect her two sons, Munir and Khalifa, regardless of her marital situation.
“I’ll fight for my children. I’ll raise them, care for them, and protect them — with or without anyone’s support,” she declared, adding that her family never supported her marriage.
