Have you heard? Kermit the Frog has a new love interest, and the internet is PISSED.
After 30 years of dating and being clubbed on the head with handbags, "Kerrrmie" finally sent Miss Piggy packing. And a month later he's already replaced the Muppet with a lesser specimen named Denise. Pfft!
The couple announced their dramatic split on 4 August. But Twitter user @PoliticalGroove smelled a rat:
I don't want to point any fingers but the email @HotGreenFuzz was leaked from #AshlieMadison sorry Miss Piggy. #Kermit

The good loyal folk on social media are not standing for Miss Piggy's stand-in. After all there is only one hair-flipping diva with a snout like that. Everyone else is an imposter, nay a swine (sorry).
Kermit first debuted his new flame, an ABC marketing executive named Denise, on People.com, and the devastating news went on to trend on social media.
Many of us grew up watching the tumultuous cross-species relationship. But it has to be said, trouble was brewing all along. After all, Miss Piggy was demanding and bossy, and she walked all over Kermit.
She emasculated the frog puppet in the worst possible way, and drove him to sing “It’s Not Easy Being Green."
So even though it was probably high time for Kermit to break it off, it can't be easy for Denise being the other pig.
It seems Miss Piggy isn't hanging around, drowning her sorrows in Häagen-Dazs. The porcine beauty was already caught cozying up to hunky Hunger Games actor, Liam Hemsworth:

Which team are you: pig or frog?
