Pastor proposes to lover at father’s funeral ceremon
A South African pastor shocked mourners at a funeral ceremony where he proposed to his bereaved lover.
The pastor popped the question as his girlfriend’s father’s corpse was being laid-in-state.Â
The lady could be seen dabbing as tears while the lover-boy pastor knelt before her.Â
The proposal was interrupted at points by high-pitched feedback from the microphone in the pastor’s hand.
The woman’s father’s coffin can be seen in the background of the clip.
A member of the congregation appears to cry out in shock at one point, after realising what is going on.
But the pastor’s bold choice of location seemed to pay off, as the footage ends with him slipping a ring on the woman’s finger.
Meanwhile, the video of the incident posted toÂ
TikTok divided opinions about the pastor’s choice of location for his proposal.
One wrote: ‘This here is WRONG..No matter how you can try and justify it.’
Another added: ‘Not at a funeral. I’d say no. Let me respect my loved one first’
But one said: ‘I personally don’t see anything wrong. His just trying to wipe tears in this family. It wa a brave thing to do.’
One user added the proposal was a ‘sign life goes on’.
