‘I’lI still check my daughter’s phone even as she turns 18’ — Actress Regina Chukwu

Talk of a mum who is not ready to leave anything to chance, then you’d pick Nollywood actress and mum of two teenagers, Regina Chukwu.

The other day, Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo had a luxurious party for her daughter’s 18th birthday and even visited a strip club with her friends but Regina Chukwu will have none of that for her own daughter.

The pretty actress, who is a widow and has catered for the kids since she lost their father at a very young age (Rachel was barely three and Richard, her son was 4) has resolved to still be an inquisitive mother who goes through her children’s phone, social media platforms and even screen who they befriend.

Addressing these issues as her daughter, Rachel turned 18 recently, Regina, who took to Instagram to share lovely photos of herself and daughter, wrote an open letter to Rachel, making her realise she remains a baby forever.

Regina wrote:
