Katharine McPhee, 36, hits back at troll who claimed she married David Foster, 71, for his money

Katharine McPhee hit back at trolls who claimed she’s only married to husband David Foster for his money.

The singer, 36, took to Instagram on Sunday to wish her other half, 71, a happy Valentine’s Day, but while she was delighted to celebrate the occasion some critics felt it necessary to troll her over their age difference.

The throwback photo of herself with David showed them enjoying a day at the beach, and she looked stunning in a red bikini as he kissed her neck.

However, one troll hit out at her writing: ‘There for the money’, in response Katharine simply responded ‘obviously’.

It wasn’t all negative, though, as David’s daughter Erin shared an amusing comment that the photo was ‘a little sexual for me, but cute’, which amused Katharine as she responded with laughing emojis.

In another exchange, one fan of Katharine told her: ‘Bet you posted this photo crying for your body and missing it.’

She told them that she wasn’t ‘cuz I’m wearing red’, but a different fan criticised the commenter for their remark about her figure, slamming them for their ‘awful and stupid’ message that they saw as body shaming.

The first fan claimed they hadn’t shared the comment to ‘make her feel bad’, and Katharine reassured them that they hadn’t as she wrote back: ‘I actually got it. I liked the comment.’

McPhee officially confirmed her pregnancy on Instagram in December with a mirror selfie of her baby bump wrapped in a baby blue overcoat, which she wore off one shoulder. 

She appeared to hint that she’s having a boy, not only with the color of the coat, but with a blue butterfly emoji framed by two blue heart emojis in the caption.

It came just days after a source told People that she and Foster were expecting their first child together.

Another insider told Us Weekly in August, that the couple was ‘definitely trying’ for a baby, and his daughters ‘fully expect [McPhee] to have a child and fully support it.’  

Foster has five daughters from previous relationships, including Allison, 50, Amy, 47, Sara, 40, Erin, 38, and Jordan, 34.
