Ariana Madix went after a fan on Instagram after the critic cruelly targeted the appearance of her boyfriend, Daniel Wai.
Following the posting of the fan’s mean message in a comment to an Instagram post, the 39-year-old Vanderpump Rules star clapped back at the hater, telling the man he was one of the “ugliest men” she’s ever seen as she spotlighted all that was wrong with his own appearance.
“Sorry but your boyfriend is busted!!!” the person had written about the 41-year-old trainer, as seen in a screenshot shared on Reddit.
“You’re easily top [three] ugliest men I’ve ever seen,” Ariana replied.
But the person didn’t stop with their hateful words, and added, “Just stating the facts! She can do so much better.”
Again, Ariana took a stand for Daniel, who defended her against plastic surgery rumors just weeks ago.
“Just stating facts,” she replied. “Balding, red nose, beady eyes, no lips, sun damage.. [I don’t know] if that’s your wife but she could do so much better.”
Regardless of any backlash the couple has faced, Ariana and Daniel appear to be quite happy and content in their relationship, even though they live on different coasts with Ariana in Los Angeles and Daniel in New York City. In fact, during an episode of Pump Rules season 11 earlier this year, Ariana and Daniel were seen discussing their future, addressing the idea of living together one day.
“I feel like long distance has been really good for us in a lot of ways because we’ve gotten to know each other just talking to each other all the time,” Ariana told him.
“It’s good and bad, right?” he replied. “I work so many jobs. I’m busy. I work seven days a week, but it sucks because I don’t see you.”
“Well, what about moving here?” she then asked. “How fun would that be?”
“I think we have to talk about that,” Daniel stated.
Later, in a cast confessional, Ariana admitted their dynamic is a bit strange.
“There’s definitely been times where he’s getting up in the morning for work, and I’m going to bed from the night before, which is fun,” she revealed. “We’re like, ‘Goodnight,’ ‘Good morning.’”
Vanderpump Rules season 12 is expected to go into production sometime this fall.
