Bindi Irwin is taking a step away from social media, revealing she will be taking the time to focus on her family.
The new mom shared the news on Instagram while also taking the opportunity to discuss the importance of mental health care.
“Hi guys, Just a note to say thank you for your support. I’m taking a break from social media and most of my work in the public eye for a month to be with my beautiful daughter and my wonderful family,” the Crikey! It’s the Irwin’s star shared on Instagram.
“I feel tremendously grateful to share our life and conservation work with you but I need some time to focus on the happiness that is my family (both human and animal). You can keep up with our adventures by following my family and Australia Zoo on social media,” Irwin, who gave birth to a daughter, Grace, three months ago announced.
“Recently, I’ve had many people reaching out to share their own stories of working hard to protect their mental health. Thank you for sharing and speaking your truth. To my friends who are dealing with depression, anxiety and other battles every day – I see you. These issues are very real and deserve to be discussed and addressed,” the 22-year-old shared.
“Surround yourself with the light of people who genuinely care about you and will support you during the good times and the hard times,” Irwin urged fans. “Remember there are helplines available. Mental health deserves more understanding and support instead of being dismissed or patronised. You are absolutely worthy of love and kindness.”
