"I hate you! You're FAT!"

I'm not sure where to post this. For a few days DS (5.5) has been shouting "you're fat!" everytime he is angry with me (usually when I've just told him off).
I don't know where he has heard that "fat" is an insult (he is homeschooled).
I haven't told him anything so far but I've been crying myself to sleep over it.

wobbly I never get upset in front of them when they are angry. I know they have the right to be angry and tell them so. I would never shame them.
I live in France and homeschooling is non-negotiable. If I lived in the UK I could pay for the DCs to go to a good school. Here it is not possible.
