AFTV star Troopz has angered fans after calling parents who buy their children McDonald’s breakfast before school a “disgrace”.
The 36-year-old former Arsenal Fan TV presenter (real name Aumar Hamilton) caused a stir in X when he called a woman “wrong” for allowing her eight-year-old daughter to eat the popular fast food breakfast before class.
The British personality and father of two also explained that his disappointment was due to the fact that the girl seemed to weigh “more than 62 kilos.”
The speech did not go down well with his supporters, who were quick to point out his own unpleasant habits, claiming he “smoked marijuana in front of his children.”
Meanwhile, others painted a portrait of what it was like to raise children, adding that parenting challenges sometimes required allowing them a “treat” before school.

The 36-year-old former Arsenal Fan TV presenter (real name Aumar Hamilton) sent shockwaves through X when he posted the message.
Addressing X she wrote: ‘I’m sorry if you buy your child McDonald’s breakfast before school you are an absolute DISGRACE!
“I just saw a woman and her son eating one. The child is about eight years old and already weighs more than 60 kilos. The mother is an unfaithful woman.”
According to the Collins Dictionary, a dishonest or unscrupulous person is a person who is dishonest or unscrupulous, exactly what Troopz claimed the unknown woman was for buying a child a McDonald’s before school started.
People flocked to the post to give Troopz a piece of their mind, and while the comments seemed largely divided, many were unimpressed by her statement.
Responding to the presenter, one person wrote: ‘But you smoke w**t in front of yours?’
“Bro, you’re smoking marijuana in front of your people,” another agreed.
One user made a similar comment: ‘You smoke and constantly swear in front of your children.’
In an interview with RTM records Earlier this year, the personality revealed that she started “smoking at age 10.” However, it has not been confirmed if she ever did so in front of her children.
The British personality and father of two has branded a woman “evil” for allegedly allowing his eight-year-old daughter to eat the popular fast food breakfast before school.
The comment did not go down well with her followers, who were quick to point out her own undesirable habits. Meanwhile, some parents defended the woman’s actions as it could have been a “reward” for the child.
Elsewhere, some parents defended their actions, saying they were perfectly within their rights to give their children a “reward.”
“I buy one for my kids every so often. It’s not a shame if I don’t do it often and as a treat,” one person explained.
One woman wrote: ‘As a Jamaican to another Jamaican… Try being a mom for a week! And that’s with a toddler. You’d probably give up if you had to switch roles with me.
“I’ve never tried McDonald’s breakfast for my daughter, but I do give it to her as a treat or on days when she doesn’t want anything else. There’s nothing wrong with parents doing this!”
A third told Troopz not to “judge”: “While it’s not good to do it every day, it could be as a reward for something the child did. Don’t judge until you know the full story.”
Troopz, whose mother is from Jamaica and his father from Pakistan and Morocco, made his name during the early days of the AFTV channel, then known as Arsenal Fan TV, when he was a vocal critic of Arsene Wenger.
He remains a regular presence when it comes to Arsenal matters online, but is no longer a regular contributor to AFTV and now works for US-based company Barstool Sports.
