Kylie Jenner is an Instagram queen. In fact, in 2015, she received more likes than any of her famous sisters did. Imagining Instagram without the youngest Kardashian is strange though. However, recently in her interview with Elle UK, Kylie admitted that she doesn’t plan on being on social media forever.
Kylie announced that when she begins her journey through motherhood, she will retire from all social media platforms. She wants to live in the moment once she has a child, and stated, “You know, I’ll probably delete my Instagram and just… I don’t know, live my life.”

Normally, this type of statement would be a mature one coming from an 18-year-old, but in this situation, it could be read as a jab at Kylie’s older sisters, Kim and Kourtney, as they are mothers who use social media to voice their appreciation and love for their children. All of the members of the Kardashian/Jenner clan have been in the spotlight for years, so most fans expect them to continue broadcasting their lives after having children. Kylie—who knows exactly what it’s like to grow up in the spotlight—has a different perspective.
Kylie’s entire extended family has spoken publically about the struggle to figure out the best way to manage social media accounts with so many followers scrutinizing each post. However, Kylie is the first to mention an end to her posting altogether, which is quite a bold move. It’ll probably be quite a while before we have to say goodbye to all of King Kylie’s accounts, so for now, we’ll keep on enjoying her Snapchats, Instagram posts and more.
