Gagasi FM radio star Felix Hlophe did not take any of the bile this troll spewed about him.
Felix Hlophe gets dragged and body shamed
The Facebook troll message reads: "You are very unlucky if your grown man behaves like a small boy. It is worse if he has a big belly and wears baggy pants."
This comes after the radio star got cosy with his wife Tracy Hlophe's best friend while they were all out at groove. Tracy posted the video of her husband and bestie talking, but their body language raised eyebrows. In the same video, the friend was crying, but Felix was comforting her.

Felix Hlope gives brutal clapback at troll
In response to the troll, the reality TV star flexed his wealth and the soft life he can afford. From having multiple properties to affording bottles of champagne to creating generational wealth, Felix Hlophe did not hold anything back.
"Work hard, my guy, so you too can go to Rockets and get a good table and have fun. I'm not a small boy. All my houses have bars. I have scores of champagne at home. Hate me all you want, but don't undermine me. If you can be half the man that I am, you would have achieved a lot in your life. Grow up and be a man and accomplish things for yourself. You'll see you'll have little time to talk about other men," he said.

But he did not stop there. Hlophe then condemned the people applauding him for sharing his remarks.
"Do something about your life. You can tease men by saying I have a big belly. That is fine by me. But to say that just to impress other men is low. But guess what !!! My grandkids are already rich. Now that's what real men brag about."
Hlophe went in on the man. He concluded by saying, "Real men do not worry themselves about other men's fashion sense of other men. They don't call other men's wives homewreckers."
Social media users agreed with Hlophe, saying some men have become too comfortable on social media and have become gossipmongers.
How should couples handle situations where they cause jealousy?
In light of Felix Hlophe's reaction to the public backlash he received after a viral video of him being cosy with his wife's best friend, Briefly News spoke to relationship expert Paula Quinsee. She shared that a partner whose actions have caused their better half to feel jealous shouldn't divert the issue.
"It is important to validate how your partner is feeling, not dismiss their concerns. If they are raising an issue with you, it means it is important to them. Jealousy is often a surface emotion signalling deeper needs for security, affirmation, or exclusivity," she said.
