Fredrik Eklund and Derek Kaplan live a happy life together filled with love, adventure, high end real estate, and soon: parenthood! The Million Dollar Listing New York star loves to share photos on instagram – particularly his romantic travels with his husband Derek, but some people don’t like Fredrik’s PDA-lite photos or his lavish spending!
Fredrik defended himself against haters who complained about photos with too much Derek Loves Fredrik and photos with Fredrik Loves Money! Fredrik echoed several other reality stars who have tired of the negative comments. “Dear hater, BYE BYE!” retaliated Fredrik. “I’m glad you are pushing the unfollow button right about now.”
“I’m all about love and positivity. Perhaps I’m ‘supposed’ to tolerate negativity, like ‘everyone else’, but I just won’t,” added Fredrik. “No. I don’t allow any negativity in my life, and refuse to see the world in that way. I don’t think anyone should.”

“Yes, I’m gay. You might hate it. But understand I’m gay and I’m really happy with it. So just get over it or move on,” Fredrik demanded. “I’m in love with another man and we’re going to be dads, and I’ll post as many photos of me and my HUSBAND kissing as I want. Yes, we are married and it’s legal. This week I’ve been called a faggot, that I’m going to hell, that I’m pathetic, all because of my love, and that’s not ok. Not ok at all.”
Fredrik is also tired of people haranguing him about corrupt Manhattan real estate destroying the character of the city, or his spending habits, which yes, he agrees are lavish. But, he earned it! “Yes, I sell expensive real estate. Get over it. It’s not my fault New York is expensive, nor that artists are pushed out of Manhattan, or that you can’t afford what you want to buy. No one ever gave me a dollar, I worked for all that I have, and have sacrificed more than you’ll ever know to get here, geographically and personally, to even be able to write this very sentence. If you knew me (or asked) I’m obsessed with history and keeping the integrity of old New York, but while moving it forward. New & old together. This is what I do for a living, I’m proud of it, and I’m just getting started.”
Fredrik will not be changing what he posts, however, and will continue to share with “the amazing and loving people who make this world better. Not the bitter and jealous naysayers hiding behind the keyboard spending your energy trying to pull other people down. Because today is the day I start over, lighter and stronger. Without you! But WITH the real and and happy people. Thank you. #LiveAndLetLive”
