“How old is Regina Daniels’ father?”
And while everyone seems to have an opinion, only a few people have actually looked at the real facts. So in this article, I’m going to walk you through everything you need to know — not just a number, but the background, context, and social dynamics that made this topic so hot online.
How old is Regina Daniels’ father
The most accurate information available indicates that Regina Daniels’ father, **Barrister Jude Ojeogwu**, was born on **June 4, 1968**. That would make him **around 57 years old in 2025**. 1
A lot of people are surprised when they hear that number because when Regina got married to Ned Nwoko, the public assumed her father must be much older — or worse, they assumed he wasn’t alive at all. But the truth is very different.
Before we go deeper, let me clarify something upfront: **yes, Regina Daniels’ father is alive**, and yes, he does have a real age — it’s just not something he has publicly celebrated with flashy photos or social media posts. 2
If you’re wondering **whether Regina Daniels’ father is alive**, I already covered that in this article:
Is Regina Daniels’ father still alive
And if you want the full background on whether she actually has a father in the first place, you should read this:
Does Regina Daniels have a father
But right now, let’s stay on the question of **age** — because the age of her father has deeper relevance than most people realize.
Why people are curious about his age
I’ve learned something over time: when the public doesn’t know something, they fill the gap with speculation — and speculation rarely gets things right.
In Regina Daniels’ case, people saw these things happen:
- Her father was not publicly present at her major life events.
- Her marriage to Ned Nwoko sparked huge controversies.
- People assumed she must be older, or that her father must be much older too.
All those factors combined to create a narrative that her father was either non-existent, forgotten, or unimportant. But none of those assumptions are true.
One reason people guessed he might be older is this: Regina married a man who is decades older than her. In society, when your daughter marries someone much older, people often project that same age onto the father — and that’s exactly what happened here.
The public saw **an older husband** and **a missing father figure**, and people connected the dots in the wrong way.
Let’s break down the age context
Regina Daniels was born on October 10, 2000. 3
So in 2025, she is 24 years old.
Meanwhile, her husband, **Ned Nwoko**, was born on December 21, 1960 — making him 64 going on 65 in late 2025. 4
Now let’s look at her father’s age — around **57 in 2025**. 5
So here’s the real age spread:
- Regina Daniels: ~24 years old
- Her father: ~57 years old
- Her husband: ~64–65 years old
That age comparison is important because it explains a lot of the emotion and misunderstanding that played out in public conversations about Regina’s marriage.
Why people assumed he was older than his age
The online world tends to fill blanks with extremes: if we don’t see someone’s age, we assume it must be old or unbelievable. Most people had never seen Regina Daniels’ father publicly, so guesses about his age ranged wildly.
What made this worse was that during the marriage, he was not physically present at many of the key ceremonies — and that absence was interpreted as either disapproval or disappearance.
But here’s something many people don’t know: absence does not equal age. A man in his 50s can be just as absent from the spotlight as someone in their 70s or 80s — especially if he is private and chooses not to be involved in celebrity life.
Why Jude Ojeogwu stays out of the public eye
One thing I always remind my readers is this: being alive and being public are two totally different things.
Regina Daniels’ father is a lawyer by profession — not an entertainer. His life before Regina became a superstar was not in the spotlight. He worked in Lagos and raised his children without cameras and without social media.
Many people in the entertainment industry only get attention because of their celebrity children. Some embrace that attention; others don’t. In his case, **Jude has always preferred privacy** — which is why we don’t see birthday posts, public celebrations, or interviews about his age.
This fact alone is why so many people filled the silence with speculation — not because they had evidence, but because people hate gaps in information.
Was his absence intentional?
Another reason people were surprised and confused by his age — and his presence — was during Regina’s controversial marriage to Ned Nwoko.
When Regina married Ned Nwoko in 2019, her father was not visibly involved in the wedding ceremonies. That absence created a vacuum that the internet rushed to fill. Some said he was dead; others said he didn’t exist; some even said he was too old to attend.
None of those assumptions were grounded in the real timeline of events or his actual age.
In fact, his absence was rooted in **disagreement over the marriage**, not old age or incapacity. I explain much more about that in this article:

Why his age matters in the context of the marriage
When the public learned that Regina married a man much older than her — a man older than her own father — emotions flared online.
People started equating “older husband” with “older father”, even though the facts didn’t support that assumption. The reality is that her father was born in 1968 and is closer in age to the husband than fans assumed, but he is **not youthful in the way her husband is**.
That alone changed the dynamic in people’s minds.
So what does 57 mean in this situation?
Let’s put this in real perspective:
- A 57-year-old father has lived through adulthood, career building, and raising children.
- A father in his late 50s having a daughter who is 24 is completely normal.
- The public just wasn’t used to seeing him in the spotlight, so they projected their own assumptions.
That’s the real reason people were confused about his age — not because he doesn’t exist, and not because he’s much older than expected — but because we had no public reference points for him in the first place.
The danger of internet assumptions about age
Here’s the lesson in all of this: when people don’t know the facts, they invent them — and that’s how fake narratives spread.
In Regina’s case, rumours about her father’s age, existence, and involvement in her life spread faster than the actual facts. But thanks to real sources, we now know the real number — and it tells a very different story than the online gossip.
What we still don’t know for certain
Before someone jumps in the comments, let me say this clearly: while the most credible sources report that he was born on June 4, 1968, **I have not personally verified his official birth record**, and many public profiles for him remain private.
So here’s what I want you to do if you have **verified information** (like a public document or his own statement):
Just let me know before we publish anything else — because we stand for accuracy over noise.
Final answer once and for all
So here it is — the answer you and many others have been waiting for:
Regina Daniels’ father, Jude Ojeogwu, is approximately 57 years old in 2025. 6
No mystery. No rumours. Just the real number based on available credible information.
And now you can confidently answer anyone who asks you the same question — because you have the facts, not just speculation.
