Gary Lucy hit back at a cruel troll after he was recently accused by his ex-wife Laura Anderson of not seeing his daughter Bonnie, 11 months.
Scottish TV star Laura, 35, took to her Instagram in July to respond to a comment claiming Gary, 42, had not seen his daughter since early January.
In response to a troll who wondered if Bonnie ever sees her dad, Laura replied: “Do you mean her father saw her…. No, he hasn’t done that since January 2nd if you wanted to ask him those questions as I have no control over the actions of others x.”
A representative for Gary declined to comment when contacted by MailOnline.
Now the EastEnders star broke his silence on the matter as a cruel troll commented under a recent Instagram clip of his children on Sunday.

Now the EastEnders star broke his silence on the matter as a cruel troll commented under a recent Instagram clip of his children
The very sweet clip explained hHis son plays with Bonnie, who was in a bouncer.
‘When Theodore got to be the big brother for today…. If this doesn’t melt your heart, I don’t know what will ,” he wrote.
The post was flooded with moving comments, but a negative one caught Gary’s attention.
“Funny how you keep posting videos but you never see her,” one wrote – but the actor quickly replied: “No, just you ‘shaz’, everyone else just seemed to be enjoying a nice video….
“I’ll block you in a minute… then you can set up a new email/Insta profile so you can keep a bitter eye on my page.”
He added another comment below: “Of course she does… she’s invested hours and hours into people’s ‘Instagram lives’ that must be good for something… oh wait.”
One fan supported him, saying: ‘Looks like Gary police are out today, leave the man alone. If you don’t like what he posts, don’t watch and unfollow him anymore, I’m sure he won’t give one, it’s his profile, he can post what he likes. Ranting.’
Laura previously described the challenges she faced raising Bonnie as a single parent after she and Gary split before she was born.

Meanwhile, Gary’s post on Sunday was flooded with moving comments, but Gary’s attention was caught by a negative one
One fan raced in his support
She told me The mirror: ‘I think it was hard to get my head around it at first, it wasn’t what I expected. But those are the cards I was ultimately dealt. Of course I’m going to make it work for my child, and then some. To be honest, I feel like I’m a really good mother.”
Giving advice to other parents facing the same challenges, she added: ‘Prioritize what you need to do, I’m the only one. I have to make it work. I’m tired, but of course I’ll be tired too. I’m raising a human soul, that’s what I signed up for.’
‘[Bonnie’s] Great, your social life is a bit in the background, but most people, your close friends, understand that.’
‘Think of how many mothers there are who struggle with work-life balance, it’s not just me. It’s so relatable and that’s the best thing about ‘Love Island’: the fact that I have a following on social media, I really understand it better since I’ve had a baby. It’s so nice to resonate and it’s a really positive place.”
“It’s just full of moms, it’s not just about ‘you’re trying to look sexy all the time’ because that’s not important.”
It comes after Laura revealed last month what happened when she recently had to rush her daughter Bonnie to A&E.
Speaking to MailOnline, Laura said she ‘knew straight away’ something was wrong with her only child when she told of her ‘frightening’ hospital visit.
Laura, the new presenter of the Scotland Capital breakfast show with co-host Fat Brestovci, revealed she had come home from work to find her little girl ‘didn’t seem like herself’.
She explained that Bonnie had a very high temperature and an elevated heart rate.
Laura said: ‘I was so shocked because I came straight from Capital and I was trying out for a nanny so she didn’t know her that well and I came in and just looked at her and I thought you were so smiley and happy most of the time , but she didn’t really seem like herself.’
“I knew right away and then I picked her up and I felt she was so warm and I took her temperature and it was 39 and the thermometer turned red and flashed like an alarm.”
‘I called 911 and it said it was temporarily unavailable and I thought, “Oh my god, I don’t know what to do,” so I called the children’s hospital near me and I said I didn’t want to be overdramatic and they said: come to the emergency room immediately.’
The former Love Island star, 35, and Gary have been in an on-again, off-again relationship since meeting on Celebs Go Dating in 2022
She continued, “My heart just sank. I thought, oh, I’m not exaggerating. “I was trying not to be stressed, her temperature had dropped a bit and they did loads of tests and they had to try to get urine from her, which was a nightmare.”
‘They got some Calpol in her because she wouldn’t take it from me and then I took her to the GP the next day and they checked her again because her temperature was still quite high.’
“She’s just getting better, they said sometimes they can get something viral and it can also increase their heart rate if they have a fever, so that’s quite alarming.”
