Britney Spears Deactivates Instagram as Dispute With Federline Escalates

The step follows troubling social-media signals during a dispute over Kevin Federline’s new memoir.

Overview

  • SpearsInstagram page was not viewable on Sunday, Nov. 2, with a platform notice saying the profile may have been removed.
  • Her account on X remains active following the change to her Instagram presence.
  • An Oct. 7 video showed bruises on her arms and bandages on her hands, which she said resulted from falling down stairs, with a caption referencing her sons returning to Hawaii.
  • Tabloid footage published late last month showed her BMW swerving and crossing a center divider, while a restaurant manager who served her earlier that evening said she did not appear intoxicated.
  • The move comes as Federline promotes his memoir You Thought You Knew, which Spears and her representative have criticized, saying he is profiting off her.
