• Berry rarely shows her kids on social media to protect their safety.

Good afternoon to everyone but the internet trolls criticizing Halle Berry! The John Wick 4 actress is clapping back after Instagram commenters shared their unwarranted opinions about Berry's six-year-old son Maceo-Robert wearing heels.

Berry posted a rare video to Instagram of her son as he walks up the stairs in cozy plaid pajamas and a pair of her white heeled boots. She captioned the clip, #Quarantine Day 12," followed up with a comment that reads "😂😂😂😂😂😂" Pretty funny, no? We thought so!

But apparently, some people have left their sense of humor in a public place during this quarantine and took to the comments with unwelcome sarcasm. "😍😍she's having the time of her life lol," commented one user about her son, and Berry replied with a correction, "@datbull81 well it’s a he (😂) and he is having a ball. Tryna cope the best he can. Laughter helps a lot right now ! ♥️"

When another fan asked if the video was of Maceo-Robert or her 12-year-old daughter Nahla Ariela, some of Berry's fans were quick to defend her, telling the user to grow up. Berry politely stepped in and said, "🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 harmless fun. Tryna survive right now. You feel me? ♥️"

Others commented, "My son never played in my heels," and that it is a "shame," but Berry ignored them.

Despite all of the negativity Berry has had to fend off, many of the actress's fans were supportive of the post and said it brought them joy amid social distancing.

"Aren't kids the greatest???" one user wrote, and the John Wick 4 star replied, "all day eryday ! ♥️" Another commented, "This absolutely makes my heart smile - we’re all losing it together!"and she said back, "@andreabarrera33 yes we are!!!!! 😂"

Last year, Berry opened up to Today about why she mostly keeps her kids out of the spotlight. The Oscar winner said she doesn't show their faces to protect their "safety."

"I just don’t want to plaster them all over the internet. That just doesn’t feel right for me," she said. "They’re gonna do that soon enough. That's gonna be their life when they grow up, and they will choose when that starts." She added, "I've fought really hard to protect their privacy, and I just want them to have their life and have it be theirs."

In addition to the joyful video of Maceo-Robert, Berry has shared several updates on her quarantine, and it's no surprise that the star has kept up with her healthy routine. Last week, the actress shared a "Fitness Friday, Quarantine edition" post, featuring her lunch.

"Since I don’t have my trusty spirit animal @peterleethomas with me right now, I thought I would give y’all one of my go-to #Keto recipes… Cheesy Bacon Ranch Chicken," she wrote in the caption. "This baby is filling, easy to make, requires only a few ingredients and is next level DELICIOUS... Happy Friday and HANG in there! ♥️"

Berry also shared a post where she's drinking a glass of wine, something many of us are enjoying while social distancing at home. "Wine...Because no great story started with a salad. 🍷(tourmaline ring by @jenvolkodavdesigns, bands by @lejewelrydesigns)" she captioned the post.

Moral of the story, everyone is coping with quarantine as best they can amid the coronavirus pandemic. Be nice to people, OK?!
