Naked frolic: Justin Bieber was caught in his birthday suit while on holiday in Bora Bora
'Justin Bieber's dad tweeted he's proud of his son's penis size,' wrote the 69-year-old. 'I think the biggest d*** in this situation is the dad who abandoned his son.'
Jeremy did not support Bieber's mother Patricia Mallette while she raised their son as a single mother following a teen pregnancy.
He is now remarried with two young children and is a close confidant of his son.
Jeremy had earlier tweeted to his son: '@justinbieber what do you feed that thing. #proud daddy.'
He added a emoji of a blushing face.
