TheDancing with the Starspro, 37, took a pause from an Instagram Q&A to share a photo of sonZane Walker, 13 months, playing with her and partnerBrian Austin Green, 49, on their bed.
The toddler chuckles and rolls around with part of his long, sandy hair in a ponytail at the top of his head, secured with a pink hair tie. Criticisms of both Zane’s hair and the hair tie seemed to flood Burgess' inbox afterward, which she addressed in a since-deleted Instagram Story.

“I’ve had some people in my DMs that were so passionately angry at me for doing that," she said. “I had someone comment on the fact that his hair tie this morning is pink.”
“I don’t get this whole ‘pink is for girls’ [thing] and me putting a pink hair tie [doesn’t] symbolize anything. I don’t get this whole ‘long hair is feminine or for girls,'” she continued. “I mean, I’m sorry, have you seen Jason Momoa? I need to do a post [on my Instagram] of all the men that a majority of women, and probably the majority of men, find attractive and so many of them have long hair.”
The protective mom went on to note the “f—ing cover of romance novels” feature men with long hair. “It is just wild to me that when it’s kids, it’s like we’re pushing some agenda on them. It’s so f—ing dumb!”
Green — who also shares 21-year-oldKassiuswith ex Vanessa Marcil — previously responded to commenters who criticized his three sons with Fox for their long hair.
“The fact is my boys have and like long hair,” he continued. “In my opinion they are beautiful and will still be and possibly be mistaken for girls if they wore matching short and tshirt combos and had short hair.”
“Some people like boys and men with long hair. Some people don’t. Both opinions are ok,” the actor added.
