Rebel Wilson returns to Instagram just a day after vowing to take a break from the platform

Rebel Wilson announced she is taking a break from social media over the weekend. 

But just a day later, on Monday, she was back posting to Instagram, again declaring she was due to have a break from the platform, as soon as she shared this one last post. 

The 40-year-old Australian actress shared a number of photos in which she posed with cuddly animals at Sydney Zoo in the city’s Western Suburbs. 

She explained in the caption: ‘Okay I am going off social media – like starting from now. 

‘But I did have to show you guys stuff from my day at Sydney Zoo where Jon Castano and I were the ‘testers’ for their new Meerkat Encounter and Red Panda Encounter – so much fun and cuteness!’ 

Rebel showed off her slimmed-down frame after a reported 18 kilo weight loss in a black long-sleeved shirt and shiny tights. 

She looked absolutely delighted as she played with meerkats and red pandas, giggling while the animals crawled around her.   

On Sunday, the star surprised her 8million Instagram followers when she revealed she would be stepping away from the platform.

‘I’m working hard so going off socials for a bit,’ she wrote underneath a photo shared to her Instagram account.

‘Love to everyone,’ Rebel continued before she encouraged her followers to be positive influences for a change. 

While it’s unclear what the Pitch Perfect actress will be putting her efforts towards, it comes after Rebel revealed she was making her health a priority.   

The Hustle actress told Today Extra recently of her weight loss: ‘It’s more about working on my mind. I suffer from emotional eating a lot and the stresses of my job.’ 

She told hosts David Campbell and Belinda Russell that she was ‘determined’ to achieve her health goals, after dubbing 2020 her ‘year of health’.

Last month, the Hollywood star vowed to slim down to 75kg (165lbs or 11.8 stone).
