img tag inside <mj-text> is throwing an exception

[AnushaKaraka]

The image embedded element inside is throwing the following exception when we try to render. How can I make this work?

Tag that is causing the issue: <img style="padding-left: 25px; display: inline; width: 35px" src="/assets/img/logo-small.png">

Mjml code tried is shown in this link:

We use a XML parser at the moment, therefore it needs to be valid XML, like

<img style="padding-left: 25px; display: inline; width: 35px" src="/assets/img/logo-small.png" />
