American model and TV personality Chrissy Teigen opened up more about her decision to leave Twitter. After quitting the micro-blogging website, the model took to Instagram to further explain why she left Twitter, noting that it wasn't because of "the trolls".
The 35-year-old star posted a screenshot of her deactivated account to Instagram on Thursday one day after she had officially stepped away from Twitter.
"It's true! The platform no longer serves me as positively as it does negatively, so with that I bid you adieu," she captioned the photo.
She further explained that she doesn't blame Twitter, or even the people sending her negative messages, for her departure.
The model said, "But I want to say that this is absolutely NOT twitter's fault - I believe they do all they can to combat relentless bullying, any honestly, it's not the bullying!! You guys have no idea how much they've reached out and worked with my team and me personally. It's not the platform. It's not the 'bullying.'"
Chrissy also confirmed that it's not the "trolls" that pushed her to leave, though she did say it "weighs on you."
She said, "And it's not the trolls. The trolls I can deal with, although it weighs on you."
"It's just me. I have to come to terms with the fact some people aren't gonna like me," she further stated, reflecting on her decision to quit the social media platform. —CNN
