Thomas Rhett is taking an indefinite break from Instagram.
The superstar took to the stories section of the social media platform on Tuesday evening (Dec. 15) to share that he will be stepping away from Instagram for the time being. He cited “too much negativity” as the reason for his departure and wished fans a Merry Christmas.
Rhett’s Instagram hiatus comes after he and wife, Lauren, returned from a trip to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico with several friends. Thomas and Lauren documented their Cabo adventures with separate Instagram posts including highlights from their trip.
“Thanks to a very kind friend, we got to go to Cabo, meet my new bestie (the goofiest sea lion named Poncho), eat fresh ahi tuna that was just caught and watch beautiful sunsets with sweet friends,” Lauren captioned her post.
While some fans were quick to compliment the picturesque scenes, others pointed out the lack of COVID-19 protocols and the fact that they traveled during a pandemic.
“Must be nice to vacay during a pandemic without a care in the world,” one follower commented, while another wrote, “So tired of seeing this kind of idiotic behavior being posted on social media with zero excuses. We are in the middle of a pandemic!”
