Why were Ivan Hall and Riley Christian’s Instagram accounts mysteriously disabled?

Ivan Hall and Riley Christian both woke up on Sunday morning to learn–their Instagram accounts have been disabled.

Ivan Hall, along with Riley Christian, woke up on Sunday morning to learn something peculiar had happened overnight. Around noon EST, both of them took to Twitter to share that their IG accounts are just disabled, and they have no idea why.

It’s quite a strange thing to happen as we head into part one of The Bachelorette Season 16 finale on Monday night. Is this a conspiracy? Does someone just want to cramp their style just because? While Riley Christian was sent home during last week’s episodes, Ivan Hall is still in the competition to win Tayshia Adams’ heart, alongside Brendan Morais and Zac Clark.

I’m not sure what reason someone would have to mess around with Riley at this point, or even Ivan, for that matter, but given the finale is this week, it’s quite suspect, don’t you think? Why this week of all weeks?

Of course, it could all mean nothing, but the coincidence is not lost on Bachelor Nation, and we’re all wondering what the heck is going on. At the time of this writing, the Instagram accounts were still disabled, with no explanation in sight.

Riley’s Instagram account getting reactivated isn’t as much of urgency as it is for Ivan Hall, who needs his social media presence available to all, especially this week. If he is the one that wins at the end of this, he won’t be able to post cute pictures of him and Tayshia getting engaged and enjoying life after the show.

And if he doesn’t win at the end of this, there’s still the obligatory post reflecting back on the journey. Basically, it’s a horrible time to lose access to your Instagram account, and for his sake, I hope he is able to get it back ahead of Monday night’s episode.

Luckily, both Ivan and Riley’s Twitter accounts are still up and running so if you’re looking to voice your support or share your love for either of them, you can do it there!

Don’t miss The Bachelorette Season 16 finale airing this Monday and Tuesday night!
