Los Angeles Chargers safety Jahleel Addae and his soon-to-be wife, Lindsey Nelson, are catching heat after a video has surfaced of them toasting to “more light-skinned kids”. In the footage uploaded to Lindsey’s Instagram story, Jahleel can be seen holding his son Zion as he, his caucasian fiancée, and their friends toast to having more light-skinned children. “Cheers to more light-skinned kids,” they all say in unison.

The clip has gone viral since being posted earlier today and not too many people are happy with Jahleel and his other half. Here are some of the comments that have been left by users on Twitter:
#JahleelAddae is an ignorant fool. Does he not realize the fact that his wife is toasting this means that she does not like his black skin but only his green money? https://t.co/7KB2W0netN

I don’t have problem with you having a white wife if that is who you love. But when you allow that white wife to disgrace you #JahleelAddae your Mother, sisters and future daughters, then you sir have truly forgotten who’s shoulders you stand on and where you are from #GetOut SAD

#JahleelAddae toast to light babies. Well cheers to him for being another insecure self hating dude that doesn’t want his own children to look like him cause he doesn’t value himself. Bravo! @Do_OrAddae37
