‘Let Me Love You‘ hitmaker Mario has broken his silence on the online hate he’s received since announcing he’s expecting a child.

In late August, the GRAMMY nominee not only took to Instagram to hard launch his relationship with realtor Esmeralda Rios but announce the two are gearing up for their first bundle of joy.

“It’s a whole universe in there! I can’t wait,” he wrote in text at the bottom of a photo of his hand over her baby bump.

And while the post brought in a flood of well wishes from fans, celebrity pals, and more, a number of commenters didn’t hold back their disappointment in the revelation that his girlfriend is a Latina woman.

Eventually tired of the weeks of negative chatter, the 39-year-old took to social media on Tuesday (September 23) to clap back.

“I’m so tired of the black women slander in the comments about how I don’t like Black women and how Black women aren’t loved,” he said to his 2.3 million followers on Instagram. “If you’re making these comments, I’m convinced YOU have a problem with Black women. Black women are loved and needed.”

Well, that’s that on that!

At writing, Mario has not announced when the couple are expecting the child to arrive nor have they revealed the gender.
