Katherine Schwarzenegger<\/b>\u2019s \u201chusband appreciation\u201d moment quickly backfired online.<\/p>\n

The 36-year-old, the eldest child of Arnold Schwarzenegger<\/b> and Maria Shriver<\/b>, was under fire for praising her husband, Chris Pratt<\/b>, for what looked like a home-building project.<\/p>\n

The internet seemed to have zero patience for it and hotly debated outdated gender roles in the comments section.<\/p>\n

Katherine Schwarzenegger was brutally roasted for what some saw as a jibe at feminism.<\/p>\n

She praised actor Chris Pratt for being a \u201cgolden retriever husband\u201d and shared a video of him building a dollhouse for their kids.<\/p>\n

Playing in the background was a very fitting song choice: Olivia Dean\u2019s Man I Need<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll never understand when women say, \u2018I don\u2019t need my husband\u2019 when I very much in fact do need my husband because who else would build our daughters a dollhouse?\u201d read the text on Katherine\u2019s video.<\/p>\n

Fans quickly accused her of reinforcing outdated gender roles, saying, \u201cGirl bye. If you can\u2019t build a dollhouse then that\u2019s a you problem.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cRich nepo baby doesn\u2019t wanna build a dollhouse so she throws women under the bus,\u201d one commented online <\/b><\/h3>\n

\u201cWomen can do that. We can buy our own homes and vote, too!\u201d one said, while another wrote, \u201cWives and women can build doll houses, too.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s admitting she can\u2019t follow some IKEA instructions to build a dollhouse?\u201d another chimed in. \u201cLol skill issue.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know why these two have to be so performative about their traditional marriage values,\u201d one commented online.\u00a0 \u201c\u2026This whole family just seems like a lot of BS.\u201d<\/p>\n

Some took the other side of the argument, saying: \u201cWomen calm down she\u2019s just being appreciative of her husband! It ain\u2019t a competition.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMen are not appreciated enough,\u201d another said. \u201cSo grateful how men and women compliment each other.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWomen DO need their husbands. Just like men need their wives,\u201d wrote another.<\/p>\n

Katherine and Chris tied the knot in 2019 with an intimate ceremony in Montecito, California.<\/p>\n

They have since welcomed three children, Lyla, 5, and Eloise, 3, and Ford, 1.<\/p>\n

The Guardians of the Galaxy<\/i> actor is also a father to son Jack, 13, with ex-wife and actress Anna Faris.<\/p>\n

Jack was born several weeks early with a list of health complications. The premature baby had issues with vision and muscle development and had to undergo multiple procedures.<\/p>\n

Both parents have since said he is a happy and healthy teenager. But netizens have stirred controversy over their parenting.<\/p>\n

Fans claimed Chris insulated his ex-wife Anna in a 2021 Instagram post celebrating Katherine.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s given me an amazing life, a gorgeous healthy daughter, she chews so loudly that sometimes I put in my ear buds to drown it out, but that\u2019s love!\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe helps me with everything. In return, periodically, I open a jar of pickles,\u201d he added about their \u201ctrade.\u201d<\/p>\n

The internet called the actor a \u201chorrible human being,\u201d with one claiming he was praising his second wife for \u201cgiving him a daughter without health issues, knowing his son with Anna Faris has had health issues.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chris addressed the backlash and called it \u201cf***ed up.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMy son\u2019s gonna read that one day,\u201d he told Men\u2019s Health <\/i>magazine at the time. \u201cAnd it\u2019s etched in digital stone. It really f***ing bothered me, dude. I cried about it. I was like, I hate that these blessings in my life are \u2014 to the people close to me \u2014 a real burden.\u201d<\/p>\n

Katherine also addressed the controversy, saying she has learned to ignore negative comments, having grown up with famous parents.<\/p>\n

\u201cGrowing up, hearing people say certain things about my parents, my siblings, my extended family\u201d was difficult, she told the New York Times.<\/i><\/p>\n

She said she learned from her mother, an Emmy award-winning journalist, that responding to negative comments would be a \u201cnever-ending\u201d trap.<\/p>\n

The Kat and Brandy<\/i> author said there are a \u201cvariety of reasons\u201d that make her grateful for having Chris as her husband<\/h3>\n

In an interview last month, Katherine gushed with praise over her husband, saying she was \u201cgrateful\u201d for marrying him and credited his \u201chumor\u201d for helping the family get through tough situations.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor a variety of reasons, I\u2019m grateful that I married Chris. But one of them \u2026 [is] being able to have someone who brings humor in challenging times,\u201d she told People<\/a>.<\/i><\/p>\n

\u201cEven when not funny, someone who can also make you laugh in a really hard time is really important,\u201d she continued. \u201cHe definitely does that, so I\u2019m really grateful for that.<\/p>\n

She said they were like \u201cteammates in so much of life,\u201d especially when it came to parenting.<\/p>\n

The Kat and Brandy<\/i> author recalled one time when her entire household was down with the flu and how the actor managed to keep everyone\u2019s spirits up.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would say that he\u2019s definitely always really humor-filled,\u201d she told the outlet.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven when he\u2019s sick, he\u2019s making jokes that make a rough situation or a rough week have some lighthearted moments,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Guardians of the Galaxy\u00a0<\/em>explained why his three youngest kids haven\u2019t seen any of his movies yet<\/h3>\n

Chris spoke about his kids while promoting Super Mario Galaxy Movie <\/i>last month, saying his son Jack thinks he\u2019s \u201ccool\u201d for his movies. But his three younger kids haven\u2019t seen any of his films yet.<\/p>\n

\u201cKatherine is very old-school when it comes to screens and technology and all of that stuff,\u201d he told Today<\/i><\/a>. \u201cSo, we\u2019re waiting.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s gonna be a season, they\u2019re gonna realize their dad is really cool,\u201d he continued. \u201cThey haven\u2019t realized it yet, but one day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Months after their 2019 wedding, Katherine\u2019s father Arnold Schwarzenegger in an interview that he respects Chris very much and called him a talented actor.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut besides all of that, he\u2019s great with my daughter,\u201d the action hero told ET<\/em><\/a>, \u201cand that\u2019s the most important part.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo one says \u2018I don\u2019t need my husband.\u2019 They say \u2018I don\u2019t need a MAN,\u2019\u201d one commented online<\/h3>\n
