Colleen Hoover, the author of It Ends With Us, appears to have deactivated her Instagram account.

Visitors to her platform are now met with a ‘Sorry, this page isn’t available’ message rather than her usual profile.

It’s unclear when exactly Hoover’s account went down, however it comes amid a dramatic legal saga unfolding between the stars of the film adaptation of her book, Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni.

The actor, 40, is suing Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds, as well as Lively’s publicist Leslie Soane, for alleged defamation, as well as civil extortion, and false light invasion of privacy, among other claims.

It follows an earlier lawsuit seeking $250 million that he filed against the New York Times over its reporting on Lively’s own legal filing accusing him of Sєxual harᴀssment and orchestrating a smear campaign against her.
