Burgess, 41, is currently competing on season 35 of the dance competition series, where she is partnered with Bachelorette alum Tyler Cameron, and is working long days as the two rehearse their routines in a bid to stay in the competition.

And while Green, 53, has previously shown support for Burgess' career, including calling the show out for 'snubbing' her from a tribute to Len Goodman a few years ago, he has now been called out for his public complaints on social media.

Green took to social media on September 26 to share he had been feeling "lonely" recently while his fiancée is working on the show, and the moment has caused some major backlash for him in the time since.

This now includes other celebrities and alums from the show calling him out for the remarks.

Brian Austin Green and Sharna Burgess began dating in 2020, and one year later, competed on Dancing With the Stars together, though they didn't last more than a few weeks.

Despite the setback, the pair appeared stronger than ever, announcing a pregnancy a few months later and welcoming their son, Zane, together in June 2022. They then announced their engagement in July 2023.

Despite the relationship seeming strong, Green appeared to admit he was struggling after Burgess returned to Dancing with the Stars after a five-year absence from the show.

Taking to Instagram in September, he lamented going to the movies alone because Sharna was busy working with her celebrity partner, Tyler Cameron, saying, "Just haven't had a good couple days and I think it's important to share that we have a lot of great days, and then some days you have? Not so much. But we persevere."

After facing backlash for the post, Green quickly issued an apology to his fiancée and her dance partner.

"Baby, Tyler, I couldn't be sorrier for any distraction I have caused," he said. "I have just horribly tainted that experience. I'm incredibly lonely. I am just going through a lot."

Neither Burgess or Cameron has seemngly addressed the drama publicly and have remained focused on the competition.

Though he did issue an apology, Green is still facing backlash for his actions, with season 29 champ Kaitlyn Bristowe calling him out for his remarks on the Oct. 6 episode of her Off the Vine podcast.

"He was saying how hard it is that Sharna's not there with him every day and she's with [partner Tyler Cameron] every day," she said. "I was like, ‘Oh my God.' I feel like he humiliated her on social media, made her feel bad."

"He was basically saying, ‘You're never home. I am all alone. And you're spending every day with Tyler.'"

While Bristowe did note that she didn't want to disregard his feelings, she felt he went about it in the wrong way.

"But maybe go to your therapist and not social media and shame your [fiancée] while she's working her a-- off and got invited back to do her dream job."

The comments he received from the video largely called him out and claimed he was exhibiting ‘toxic' behaviors, but it isn't the only time the actor has faced backlash in his life.

He also faced backlash in the past when it came to his ex-wife, Megan Fox-whom he began dating when she was 18 and he was 30, an age-gap that raised eyebrows.

In addition to his relationship with Fox causing controversy due to their ages when they first got together, Green has also been at the center of controversy when his exes have publicly called him out over drama.

Prior to his relationship with Burgess, Green notably dated fellow 90210 alum Vanessa Marcil, whom he became engaged to in 2001, and welcomed a son, Kassius with, in 2002. The pair split in 2003, and he began dating Fox the following year. They became engaged in 2006, broke up in 2009, got back together in 2010, got married, and welcomed their first two sons, Noah and Bodhi, in 2012 and 2014. Fox filed for divorce in 2015, though they reconciled after Fox became pregnant with their third son, Journey. The pair eventually split for good in 2020.

Though he has co-parented with his two famous exes over the years, Green's behavior has previously been called out by both at various points-with Marcil memorably taking aim at him and Fox together in 2018, alleging they hadn't seen Kassius in five years, and that her son had "never met his youngest brother and is not allowed to know where his bio father, stepmother and three younger brothers live."

She shared her comment on Instagram, also claiming that the then-couple was trying to get full custody of Kassius and child support in a years-long custody battle. She claimed that after a lengthy custody battle the cases were thrown out by a judge and the two always had 50/50 custody.

Meanwhile, Fox and Green appeared to go at it on social media following their divorce and her publicly moving on with Machine Gun Kelly at the time, specifically on Halloween shortly after their divorce, when Green posted a photo of himself and Journey on social media.

"Why does Journey have to be in this picture? It's not hard to crop them out. Or choose photos that they aren't in. I had a great halloween with them yesterday, and yet notice how absent they are from my social media," she commented at the time. "I know you love your kids. But I don't know why you can't stop using them to posture via Instagram."

"You're so intoxicated with feeding the pervasive narrative that I'm an absent mother, and you are the perennial, eternally dedicated dad of the year," she continued, before sarcastically congratulating him for having their kids "half of the time."

"Congratulations you truly are a remarkable human! Why do you need the internet to echo back to you what should be inexhaustibly evident in the way your children love you?"

Green later deleted the photo and reuploaded it without his son in the corner.
