Nollywood actress Funke Akindele opened up about her near-death experience after her mother’s passing following the 2023 general election. In an interview with Chude Jideonwo, she shared her personal struggles, including the loss of her marriage, her mother’s death, and her defeat in the Lagos State gubernatorial election.

Nollywood actress Funke Akindele recently shared a deeply emotional account of her near-death experience following the tragic loss of her mother, the collapse of her marriage, and her defeat in the 2023 Lagos State gubernatorial election.

In an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, Funke Akindele opened up about the emotional toll these events took on her. She also addressed accusations regarding her alleged lack of care for the late Jenifa’s Diary cast member, Esther, clarifying that she was going through a difficult time and was unfairly blamed for not caring for the actress.

Funke also revealed that she is now the sole provider for her children, whom she shares with her estranged husband, Abdulrasheed Bello, aka JJC Skillz.

She said, “I do not like to mourn. I remember when my mom passed on, I just wanted to get out of it quickly. I like to move on from situations fast. I don’t allow myself to break down, and it affected me after my mom’s death. I almost died.

She said, “My heart was aching, and something happened online. For the first time, I took my phone, went live on social media, and said, ‘You all should leave me alone. Do I know this person? No, this person came to act in my movie, got paid, and left. Why are you accusing me of something I didn’t do wrong?

She continued, “Do you know what I’m going through? I lost my mum, my marriage fell apart, I lost in politics, I have to get back to work, I have to earn a living. I have children I’m raising alone, and you are stressing me. So, for the first time, I cried. I broke down for weeks.

However, in a recent video shared by Nwoko, the couple was seen attending a one-day advocacy event focused on supporting young girls and mothers in Anioma. The senator highlighted that the initiative was part of their family’s commitment to community development.

In the footage, Regina Daniels, dressed in a white blouse and mini skirt, was seen answering a call as Nwoko walked ahead holding his son’s hand. She was later spotted trying to catch up with them.

The video sparked mixed reactions from fans, many of whom noted a noticeable shift in the couple’s dynamic. Some pointed out that, once known for their public displays of affection, Regina and Ned appeared distant during the outing—particularly as they did not hold hands, as they usually would.
