DP interfering with my decisions regarding DS [Edited by MNHQ at poster's request]

I wasn't sure how else to describe what my DP but it's like he interferes with my decisions regarding my DS8. He doesn't live with us but we've been together around 6 years.

An example. DP comes over and asks DS whether they have done xx activity. DS says no I forgot, DP then says oh I've been looking forward to you showing me that all day. DS then immediately wants to do the activity. I say no as you've got to have a bath soon, you can do it tomorrow.

DP then steps in, why can't he do it, it's too early for a bath, he doesn't need one yet, let him have one later etc etc. All in front of DS. DS then starts to argue against me saying he needs a bath. It carries on.

I just said to DP why do you need to get involved, I'd never dream of telling you what to do with your DD. He is now sat here sulking and looks like he's not really talking to me. Am I in the wrong here? This sort of thing happens all the time!

He also appeared to be giving my DS one word answers for a while due to his sulking.
Oh fuuuuuuuck that for a game of soldiers. He can fuck off home. Permanently.

That would be enough for me. He's interfering with your parenting and he's sulking when he doesn't get his own way. Bye bye.

Wow, horrible man, trying to play good cop, undermining you the mum,
confusing the DC and modelling foul behaviour. I would kick his sad arse out the door asap.
