Thomas Rhett Tells Fans He’s Taking a Break From Instagram: “Too Much Negativity”

Thomas Rhett told fans he is taking a break from Instagram after experiencing “too much negativity”

The announcement comes after Thomas and his wife Lauren posted photos from a trip to Cabo on Tuesday, and Instagram users commented about the photos that showed the couple and their friends arm-in-arm with no face masks on.

One user wrote, “Sigh – another celeb to now unfollow” while another added: “No mask and you have children too,” and a third said, “what pandemic?”

Others questioned whether the family was feeding the sea lion pictured in their vacation photos. “Oh I hope you guys weren’t actually feeding Poncho,” one person wrote. I know it’s pointless to say anything now, but people seeing you do it will think it’s cool and okay, and it’s far from okay. This makes animals less cautious around people and less eager to hunt of their own. Poaching of many species in Mexico is problematic and this guy unfortunately may be an easy target with people feeding him.”

Although the couple did not respond to the comments, Thomas did turn off comments on his next post.
