Aston Merrygold hit back at a troll who left a racist comment under his Sarah Lou's snap of the couple cradling their children Grayson, two, and Macaulay Shay, four months.
The JLS star, 32, took to Instagram on Monday to post a screenshot of the cruel follower's offensive remarks, in which they called the couple 'degenerates' for their interracial relationship.
Not holding back, the singer admitted he's not afraid to 'slap keyboard warriors' and urged fans to report social media users who share similar discriminatory views.
Enraged: Aston Merrygold hit back at a troll who left a racist comment under his Sarah Lou's snap of the couple cradling their children Grayson, two, and Macaulay Shay, four months
Dancer Sarah, 36, uploaded a cheery photo of her family before their sons fell asleep, to which the troll penned: 'Everyone in this comment section is either in support of diverse generations or lying to themselves about racial biology.
'The demographics say we will become a majority in Britain by next two decades and because of degenerates like this then our race will no longer have an identity.' (sic)
An enraged Aston responded: 'big man come see me real quick in your DMs', after the user added a sick face emoji to his rude comment.
The Beat Again hitmaker expressed his frustration by reposting the exchange on his main Instagram feed and wrote: 'You see little p***ks like this I’m here for you all day! So @ranceaaron war gwarn?

The X Factor 2008 finalist stressed the importance of reporting trolls to the police in a recent interview with MailOnline, stating: 'With that whole situation, we had to let people know that you can't get away with these things and social media is a place where people should feel as safe on there as they do in their homes.
'We reported it to the social platform itself and the police were involved. It's all about letting people know you have to report these things or change won't happen. The more cases police get, the easier it is for them to really crack down on the issue.'
The TV star further detailed his stance during an interview with Loose Women, when he vowed to 'always tackle racial abuse.'
Aston said: 'I said, "Right ok, we need to tackle this the right way. We need to do It publicly and make sure people can't get away with this".
'Speaking to the police and social platforms, you need to keep reporting it. Blocking people and deleting messages [is not enough], you need to keep reporting it.
'Talk about it. Keep it vocal. Everybody needs to be aware that this stuff goes on all the time. The more it's reported the more power authorities will have.'
Long-term: The duo - who have been engaged since December 2017 - recently admitted they want to get married 'as soon as possible'
