Aventer Gray, the wife of controversial South Carolina megachurch pastor John Gray, is launching her own brand line, she said on Instagram. 

John Gray, pastor of Relentless Church in Greenville, South Carolina, sparked controversy and national headlines last year when he bought his wife a $200,000 Lamborghini for their anniversary. He’s since drawn more criticism for his apparent expensive taste in sneakers and having an “emotional affair” on his wife. 

Aventer Gray hosted a sold-out party in Greenvilleon Sunday to launch her new brand, she said on Instagram and her website. 

The Greenville News described the event: “The Instagram-ready launch, at the Hyatt Regency hotel in Greenville, included a room covered in pink and a maze of activities for the approximately 400 attendees, from foot massages to food to a wall of flowers and a make up station.”

Aventer Gray wrote on Instagram that “this is no ordinary launch,” instead saying “it will be an experience.”
