The reality star and influencer’s post came after she shed light on abusive messages she receives from trolls and the impact they have on her mental health.

“So, I’ve actually been having a really bad down day today. So, seeing that’s just not made us feel the best and that’s obviously just one of many. Just because you see someone post on Instagram, you don’t know how that person’s ever feeling. Just because I’m showing myself looking sexy doesn’t mean I’m feeling sexy. I’m actually very insecure,” Chloe told fans.

“I’m going to have a few days off social media and I’ll be back in a couple of days,” she continued before blowing a kiss into the camera. “I’m only human. Social media gets too much. This is why I just need a few days off it, off my phone.”
