After a slew of celebrity break-ups, the possibility of this one might just finally break us.

Blake Lively left her 20 million Instagram followers terrified on Wednesday after she deleted every single post and unfollowed almost everyone on the platform, including husband Ryan Reynolds.

Fans shouldn't stress out too much, though - this is not a Jenna and Channing situation.

Harpers Bazaar reports the move is a publicity stunt for her new movie, A Simple Favour, which co-stars Anna Kendrick.

Lively is now only following 36 women on Instagram, all of whom are named Emily Nelson, her character's name in the movie.

Her new bio now reads, "What happened to Emily?", and her only post is a teaser trailer for the movie.

Lively's dramatic Instagram action was a shock to everyone, especially Deadpool star Reynolds.

The actor, who has been married to the Gossip Girl star for six years, joked about the snub during an Australian interview.

"It definitely stings," Reynolds joked.

"It's a terrible way to find out that I've been kicked out of the house, to be honest. Absolutely terrible. I don't know where rage like that comes from."

Reynolds also joked that their kids - three-year-old James and one-year-old Ines - were too young to really understand the issue at all.

"[I'd tell them], 'Mommy unfollowed Daddy on Instagram,' [and] my child would just fart and walk away," he said.
