Pictures shared on social media show what seems to be an intimate marriage ceremony where the Joburg mayor can be seen wearing a short, off-white dress.

More pictures include snaps of the DA Mayor and her husband staring intimately into each other's eyes.

The ceremony did however spark controversy on social media with many calling it a "coalition" between the DA and ActionSA. 

Phalatse's run as mayor, which has been for just over a year, has been rocky, to say the least.
