Brian Austin Green laughs off fan hate after he shaded Megan Fox for a post about her new beau

Earlier this week he threw a pointed dig at his estranged wife Megan Fox. 

But Brian Austin Green laughed off the hate his post garnered, after fans were quick to jump in defending the actress and her new boyfriend Machine Gun Kelly. 

He responded to two comments with a hysterical laughing face emoji on Wednesday. 

One user wrote ‘Now we know why she broke up with you. Your children must be more mature than you. Move on.’

While another added ‘Someone [is] mad. Kells would whoop that a** old man.’ 

On Wednesday, Megan, 34, posted a sexy mirror selfie of herself and her rapper boyfriend – real name Colson Baker – with the caption: ‘Achingly Beautiful Boy… My heart is yours.’ 

However, the public display of affection appeared to be too much for Brian, 47, who threw shade just hours later by posting a snap of their three sons with the similar caption: ‘Achingly beautiful boys….. my heart is yours.’

His controversial clap back certainly got fans talking, as one user commented: ‘Ha! Brian the shade in your caption is too much… I love it,’ while another said: ‘I see what you did there.’

The former 90210 star had previously maintained that the pair had an amicable split, yet since then, Megan’s relationship with Kelly has moved at considerable speed. 

Brian and Megan share three children together Bodhi, six, Journey, four, and Noah, seven, while he also has another son Kassius, 18, – who features in his post – from his previous relationship with actress Vanessa Marcil. 

The pair filed for divorce after 11 years of marriage citing ‘irreconcilable differences’ in May this year.  

Brian had stressed in his podcast back in May that he didn’t want Megan and Kelly to be seen as ‘villains’ or that he was a ‘victim.’

Though it seems he may have now had a change of heart, despite the fact he has also since moved on from the marriage. 

Last month, Megan explained her instant connection with the rapper ‘I knew right away that he was what I call a twin flame. Instead of a soul mate, a twin flame is actually where a soul has ascended into a high enough level that it can be split into two different bodies at the same time.’

‘So we’re actually two halves of the same soul, I think. And I said that to him almost immediately, because I felt it right away.’
