This comes after Oprah spent more than R140,000 on a wedding dress for Nelson. The bride shared a picture on her Instagram page and wrote: "My three mama bears walked me down the aisle. One walked me in spirit. I lost my mum when I was ten and her spirit gained me to them. A praying mum, dead or alive, is sooooo powerful!
