But the “Family Feud” host was having none of it, biting back at critics for seemingly overreacting.
“What you trippin’ ’bout cause my wife said the word re***ded… it’s a word ain’t it?” he commented on the post. “And she ain’t talking ’bout nobody but herself to me…”
“What she was doing was just that and she ain’t saying it bout nobodies baby… I don’t ever comment but [damn] is you just looking for something to be pissed off about cause we ain’t,” he continued.
