Jeffrey Dean Morgan slammed Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade on Thursday following his wife Hilarie Burton's emotional post about "losing multiple pregnancies," struggling with "infertility" and how Roe v. Wade protected her rights.
"I got OPINIONS. You don’t like em? Piss off. Go follow someone else. I’m in a block n delete kinda mood today," Morgan tweeted. "Before you clap back with some bullsh-t… read my wife’s last instagram post… and tell me I have no skin in the game."
The 56-year-old actor wrote this alongside a selfie of him. In the photo, the actor can be seen wearing a gray t-shirt that reads, "PRO ROE 1973."
One of the users commented, "No I don’t like em and what about it jef?" to which the actor replied, "Blocked. Dummy."
A fan wrote, "Hey #Jeffreydeanmorgan I would say yes it's yours as much as hers" to which Morgan replied, "In a way. Yes. In a big way, no. Hence this being about women’s rights. I had my own anguish, but it was still different. Much more INTENSE for Hil. Mentally and physically."
"I was useless at times," he admitted. "I couldn’t fix her pain. It almost broke us, it didn’t. Now w/this? I don’t know."
When one of the fans thanked the actor for speaking up for women regarding the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade and noted that they are sad about the decision, the actor noted that it is nothing but a lack of education.
"Nothing to be sad about. I’m certainly not sad! Happy to weed out people. Problem is a massive lack of understanding or education," he wrote. "If people don’t care to understand ramifications? All we can do is TRY to change one mind. One. We all do that? Maybe we don’t fall into dark ages."
The post came two days after Morgan's wife shared an emotional post, mentioning her own "traumatic" experience.
"Having an abortion after my fetus died allowed for my uterus to heal in a way that made it healthy enough to carry future pregnancies," she shared on Instagram on Tuesday alongside a photo of her daughter George Virginia.
Morgan and Burton share two kids - Augustus Morgan, 12, and George Virginia, 4. The couple got married in 2019.
