Ice-T, a rapper turned actor, is a no-nonsense man always looking out for his pack and never fails to address the trolls when need be. In addition, he enjoys a sweet and controversial-free relationship with his glamor model wife, Coco Austin.

The duo has been married for nearly two decades, and despite their busy careers, they have managed to maintain the sparks in their relationship, making it a desirable affair.

Five years ago, these two became parents, and they welcomed their first and only daughter, Chanel. Although Ice-T already has two kids from a former relationship, Chanel is Coco's only child.

Ever since the model's motherhood journey began, she has been vocal about her decisions and has had the support of her husband, who is not new to the game.

ICE-T SLAMS THE NAYSAYERS

More than once, Coco has been slammed for still feeding her young daughter with breast milk. On the other hand, many have supported her actions, and others had a different view.

However, one of her biggest fans, her husband, has been unchanging in his stand. He goes as far as protecting her from trolls and responding to the critics. In one of his tweets, he said:

"Why…are you worried about MY child??? That's what's weird...NOW go back to the basement."

Another wrote: "I do think breastfeeding a 5-year-old on the verge of going to kindergarten is a bit weird. I feel bad for your child...She will be teased." On the other side, one loving fan's comment read:

Many other comments supporting the mother of one surfaced on the internet, and the commenters established that breastfeeding is a unique bonding experience between mother and child.
