Egyptian actor, Karim Fahmy defied the haters with a new photo on his official “Instagram” account of himself and his wife Dania while hiding their faces with "Heart" emoji.

“Does anyone want anything? good evening to all respectable and polite people” he captioned, in a response to the dispute that occurred between him and a fan on Instagram.

The dispute occurred between Karim and a fan on Instagram after he posted photos of his family from his brother Ahmed Fahmy and Hannah El Zahed wedding, which took place on September 11.

The posts included a photo of his daughters, in which he hid their faces to protect their privacy.

However, a female fan ruined the moment by leaving an unsavory comment on the photo.

“Why would you put hearts over their faces and leave their hair resembling a wire brush showing? God forgive me but I can’t be quiet about this!” the comment read.

The careless comment drew a swift and angry reaction from the girls’ father, who replied: “Look, I don’t want to insult anyone, but if you insulted my daughters again, you will hear some words from me that you will not like. For the time being, I will respect the fact that you have a father who will feel very hurt if I say anything to you that might make him regret the way you were raised.”

The quarrel had drawn the attention of many on the photo, and soon Ahmed participated in the conflict, who directed insults at the girl.

Karim posted another photo of himself and his daughter after the quarrel and captioned "These are the most precious people to me in the whole world: social media has become a swamp. I discovered that unfortunately, there are many people who need to be educated, which I witnessed by some of the comments left on the previous photo."

The 36-year-old actor leads a private life, and nearly never posts pictures of his daughters with their faces shown, in a bid to protect their privacy, which leaves him vulnerable to criticism on social media.
