“It’s the outfit tho.. you a mom,” 29-year-old Jackson responded in a tweet to a viral video of the R&B musician serenading Palmer with his hit There Goes My Baby.
He even went so far as to double down on his comment by tweeting, “We live in a generation where a man of the family doesn’t want the wife and mother to show his children booty cheeks to please others and he is told how he’s a big hater.’
After a wave of backlash from fans and fellow celebrities, Jackson deleted his Twitter account.
At this point, there’s no telling if the couple is still a solid item, but it looks like he’s removed all of Palmer’s images from his Instagram page.

As for the former Disney Channel star, who welcomed son Leodis in February, she addressed the controversy head-on anyway, but she continues to flaunt her feminine curves on social media.
“I was really always dealing with the low-key of my body and when I had a baby, it kind of freed me up in a way where I just didn’t care that much,” Palmer said earlier in July, during a panel discussion on the Big Boss: Empowering Yourself to create the Life You Want event.
She continued, “And so the fact that I didn’t care just made me have an ease and comfort and love for myself in a way that I didn’t have before.”
Palmer claims it gave her “a sense of freedom” that allowed her to proudly say “who I have” and embrace who I am.”
