Instagram model dumps boyfriend after he insists on being in her photos
An anonymous woman who claims to be a successful ‘Insta-girl’ has broken up with her boyfriend, after he insisted on being in her sponsored Instagram posts while on holiday.
The woman shared her story to Reddit, using the name IGAZmodel, claiming she and her boyfriend were on holiday in Mexico when he started questioning why she wouldn’t upload pictures of the two of them.

The alleged Instagram star detailed how she explained to him that when she posts a picture with man in it, it lowers her engagement with followers and sponsored posts don’t do as well for the companies she is promoting.
“It's just a fact. I need these pics from this vacation to be able to sell stuff,” she explained.
“It's just the way my ‘job’ works.”
She also explained that through the success of her job, and work as a yoga instructor, she paid for the trip for both her and her boyfriend. While he could take as many private photos as he wants of them, “hiking, having sex, laying by the pool, I don’t care but I need to keep my IG separate.”

“He's been so p---y and taking alone time for the entire time we've been here. We have barely slept together, no [intimacy] and just short, curt conversations.
“I'm really upset because I paid for this entire vacation only to be ignored and treated pretty crappy.”
The forum lit up with people assuring the woman that she wasn’t being unreasonable, and as it is her business she has every right to refuse putting him on her Instagram.

Eventually the woman gave an update via post edit, telling fellow Redditors it was over.
“Well folks it’s [been] fun. I got a VACATION to enjoy and some room keys to change because in the words of El ‘I dump your ass!’” the woman wrote.
“He can figure out his own lodging and way back.”
We love a woman who stands her ground!
