So when Kendall deleted her account without any reason or warning, people were pretty surprised.

Speaking on Ellen, Kendall explained that she did not expect such a huge reaction and why she did it.

“It’s so crazy to me that it even became huge news like that. Like I have no idea how that happened. I guess I didn’t expect it,”she told Ellen.

“I would wake up in the morning and look at it first thing; I would go to bed and it was the last thing I would look at. I felt a little too dependent on it. So I kind of wanted to take a minute. It’s a detox.” She added.

“I’ll find myself going to click on Instagram and it won’t be there, and I kind of love that,” she said. “It’s kind of a nice, refreshing feeling.”

So really, she’s just like us and gets a little addicted to social media every now and then.

However, she won’t be away from it forever as she tells Ellen she’ll definitely be back.
