The Instagram story followed a tweet from Jeremy the day before, which read, “We need to celebrate families. U know the reason we’re all here! The things this generation glorifies is unbelievable!”

Given his son’s celebrity status, outraged fans flocked to Jeremy’s latest post to condemn his offensive message.

One fan reminded Jeremy where his platform came from and told the father: “dont forget do thank Justin Bieber this month for your paid bills.”

“No one is going to thank a straight person for the existence of the lgbtq+ community. We’ve always existed, y’all just never knew. Stop spreading dumb s—. You’re a father of one of the biggest pop stars. Act like one,” read another scathing reply.

Commenters slammed Jeremy as a “deadbeat dad” and “absent father” while they accused him of being a hypocrite.

“You are not in a position to judge ANYONE…so…..HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!!” wrote one Instagram user, who added a string of rainbow emojis to the comment. Others joined and simply left Pride flag emojis to get their message across.
