KIIS FM breakfast star Jackie O Henderson revealed she has quit social media because it negatively affects her self-esteem.
Henderson and her co-host Kyle Sandilands were discussing US model Hailey Bieber’s decision to limit her Instagram use after it led her down a “dark hole” and Henderson said she can relate.
“I’ve stopped using Instagram because I get off it and feel not good about myself. I actually feel worse than before I went on it,” Henderson, 46, said on the Kyle and Jackie O show this morning.
“I just think it’s not real, everything is so Photoshopped, everyone just looks like they’re having a better life than I am.
“It’s like they’re getting out more and they’re doing things.”
Sandilands said, “Everyone is pretending, the whole thing is pretend in all honesty.”
Henderson, who has 204,000 followers, said she’s considering permanently deleting the app although she has not yet deleted her account.
“That’s why I’ve gone off it for a while because I just think, ‘You know what? Why am I on here?’... I don’t want to know what everyone is doing. I think I’m going to delete the app.”
The Masked Singer judge previously revealed that she now lives a much quieter life with her 10-year-old daughter Kitty in Sydney’s eastern suburbs than she did before the pandemic.
Henderson bought an $11 million home in Woollahra last year, following her split with ex-husband Lee Henderson after 18 years together.
They continue to amicably co-parent their only child Kitty.
