Bride proves she's a virgin to pastor father with a doctor's certificate on wedding day (Photos)

A bride sparked outrage after presenting her father with a gynaecologist signed 'certificate of purity' on her wedding day to prove she was a virgin.

Brelyn Freeman gave the framed document to her proud dad, who is a pastor, after walking down the aisle to marry gospel singer Tim Bowman, Jr.

The certificate, given out at the wedding reception in front of guests, stated her ‘hymen is intact’ as well as citing a passage from the Bible.

Detailing her decision the new Mrs Bowman wrote on Instagram: “If one person has made a decision to wait until marriage or decide to stop & wait we have done our job.

“I was able to present a certificate of purity to [my father] signed by my doctor that my hymen was still intact.

“Also the covenant he gave me when I was 13.

"When you honour God, your life will automatically honour others.

“I love you daddy."

 She signed off: “Let’s make Jesus famous!”.

Mrs Bowman gave to her father pastor Michael Freeman of the Faith Christian Church in Maryland the document, signed by her gynaecologist and herself, on October 10.
