Regina Daniels Opens Up on Health Battle as Actress Marks 25th Birthday in Wheelchair

Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has opened up about months of health challenges that left her relying on a wheelchair as she celebrated her 25th birthday.

The actress disclosed her struggles in a video shared on her Instagram page on Saturday, October 10, 2026, explaining that her condition worsened over time and contributed to her absence from social media.

The mother of two explained that her condition took a turn for the worse after the Children’s Day carnival she hosted, leading to repeated medical tests and increasing pain.

She said the experience had affected her independence, forcing her to rely on other people for assistance with everyday activities.

“Sometimes I can walk, and sometimes I can’t move. I cried,” the actress said, recounting the emotional impact of the ordeal.

Despite the challenges, Daniels expressed gratitude for the improvement she said she had experienced in her recovery.

She explained that recent developments in her condition encouraged her to speak publicly about her struggles and thank God for the progress made so far.

The actress also spoke about moving closer to her children, whom she described as an important part of her life.

Daniels did not disclose a specific medical diagnosis or provide details of the treatment she had received.

Her birthday revelation has offered fans a glimpse into the personal challenges she has faced in recent months, while her reported progress in recovery provides a hopeful note amid the difficulties.
