SUELLA Braverman and her husband Rael married in the House of Commons five years ago – after meeting through a love of politics.
The former Home Secretary, 43, then held a celebration at a Holiday Inn hotel in her constituency of Fareham, Hampshire.
More than 100 residents – including family, friends and local councillors – attended the wedding reception for a celebratory meal and party in March 2018.
She met her husband Rael, who is an executive at Mercedes-Benz, three years prior to their wedding.
The couple are said to have met through a mutual love of politics, before Rael proposed during a holiday to Cyprus.
Her husband even helped her with her Brexit campaign and was on hand to hand out leaflets during the 2017 General Election.
