Jason Ralph, the husband of Superman star Rachel Brosnahan, allegedly liked a brutal fan comment on Instagram about their marriage.
The Magicians actor, 39, and the Marvelous Mrs. Maisel star, 35, have reportedly been married since 2016, and are very private about their relationship.
Brosnahan plays Lois Lane in the James Gunn-led DC flick alongside David Corenswet, 32, the new Superman actor.
While promoting the film, Brosnahan joked about how she 'made out' with Clark Kent for 'four hours.'

Sat on a panel alongside Gunn, she said: "It did help that our first scene together, we made out for like four hours and then shot the rest of it."
As the crowd got a bit excited, the director of the movie interjected: "On screen, yes!"
Variety reports that one scene showing the couple sharing a mid-air kiss lasted 33 seconds.
It comes after the Superman actors went viral for carrying on an intimate scene after the director shouted cut.

Now, screenshots posted on social media suggest that Ralph allegedly liked a comment referring to him as a 'cuckold' - a man whose wife or partner is sexually unfaithful.
"It's genuinely sad to see your career being tucked out to be remembered as a cuckold because your wife couldn't handle herself with her co-actor,” read the comment, apparently referencing the two Superman stars.
“Let's have some self love and stand up for yourself man.”
According to Buzzfeed, Ralph has turned off comments from the post.

The incident caused a mixed reaction online, as some people saw it as a 'sarcastic' like.
“This seems like a sarcastic like to me,” one person commented on Reddit.
“I mean for all [we] know both he and his wife thought the comment was funny. Lol,” another comment reads.
“Ya’ll are doing too much with the marriage counselling advice. Jason had a troll in his comments, and he liked the comment sarcastically. Relax,” a third person said.
Meanwhile, others speculated: "Even if they're having marital problems, why would you set up your wife to be attacked by a bunch of losers on the internet? I'm sure thats not gonna make things better."

"So weird," someone else said.
Well, Brosnahan previously explained at the SAG awards why the pair - who met while filming 2013's I'm Obsessed With You: But You've Got To Leave Me Alone - were intentionally keeping their relationship private.
"I’ve been quite private about my personal life for a few reasons. The first being that it’s just that…personal," she told reporters.
"Jason and I also noticed early on that, while we are both the leads of successful television series, he has almost never been asked about our relationship while I have been asked on almost every red carpet I have walked in the last two years."
