Britney Spears' Instagram page mysteriously vanished Tuesday afternoon, but it won't be gone forever.
Sources close to the situation tell Breaking Celebrity News the 39-year-old pop star decided to temporarily disable her social media account but that it's not permanent.
"She's happy and in a good place legally and personally," insiders tell us, insisting the decision was hers.
This comes just days after the singer announced her engagement to longtime boyfriend Sam Asghari.
As we previously reported, Britney said "yes" to the surprise marriage proposal at her home in Los Angeles, California, on Sunday.
"I can't f--king believe it!!!!!!" she captioned her announcement, which was a video montage featuring snippets of her showing off her new jewelry.
"Look at that," said Sam, who was seen smiling. "You like it?"
"YES!" Britney exclaimed, after giving him a big kiss.
For his part, the 27-year-old fitness expert posted a photo of Spears holding her ring finger up to the camera, while she and her future husband locked lips in the background.
"My phone exploded today!" he later wrote on his Instagram Story. "Thank you for the overwhelming love and congratulations! We both love every single one of you!"
The good news for Britney keeps on coming! Just last week, her father, Jamie Spears, filed to end his longstanding conservatorship of his daughter.
According to court documents, the 69-year-old attributed his sudden change of heart to "recent events related to this conservatorship," noting that because the singer was recently able to hire her own attorney (Mathew Rosengart), she "presumably has capacity to handle other contractual and business matters."
Jamie indicated that Britney's "circumstances have changed to such an extent that grounds for establishment of a conservatorship may no longer exist," going on to acknowledge that the pop star "has told this court that she wants control of her life back without the safety rails of a conservatorship."
He conceded that his daughter "wants to live her life as she chooses without the constraints of a conservator or court proceeding" and asked for the conservatorship to be terminated without a medical evaluation.
