М. Moela from South Africa proposed to his girlfriend in front of her father's coffin. A TikTok user shared a video showing him kneeling on one knee as he asked his crying partner to marry him during her father's funeral.

The video shared on social networks shows the daughter of the deceased obsessed with grief in the front row, with the coffin just a few meters away, while her partner kneels in front of her to propose to her. It is not clear what the woman's response was, although the footage shows her holding the ring on her finger.

The lover started talking into the microphone before sliding the ring on her finger and one could hear some of those gathered shouting in apparent alarm as he asked the question.

The title of the video is: "Proposing the daughter of the deceased immediately at the funeral"

Moela thanks God for being in his girlfriend's life at such a difficult time for her. He also allegedly claims that his role in her life will comfort her as she reconciles with her father's death.

Social media users were shocked by the proposal, with some calling it "disrespectful" to propose to someone in "such deep pain" and accusing the man of "exploiting her emotions".
