255

About 20 years after she lost her husband and father of her two children, famous actress, Regina Chukwu on Thursday leapt for joy as she unveiled her new house in Lagos.

The actress shared the story of how she lost her husband and was left with two kids and five siblings, saying she felt proud that her kids who are now all grown-ups finally have a place they could call their home.

Regina recalled how she had to move back to her father’s house when she could no longer pay her rent where she and her late husband stayed, noting that she slept outside inside mosquito net when the house she moved into was too hot for her.

 

 

Regina is a popular personality in the Yoruba movie industry even as her name and good grasp of the English Language should have earned her roles in the English version of Nollywood.

Speaking further, she shared the story of how she struggled with life, career and raising her children and other adopted kids that have become a big part of her existence.

“I am grateful to God for this journey I have had. I just want to thank the children God blessed me with, my siblings and parents.

“So many people won’t believe the situation we found ourselves and where we live now as we are yet to move into our new house”.
