Britney Spears won’t be sharing any updates on her life on her social media channels any time soon. The iconic pop star took to Instagram on Sunday (April 24), sharing a brief video of a baby appearing to lounge at a salon with a cup of coffee as she announced: “I’m going on a social media hiatus for a little while 📱 !!! I send my love and God bless you all 💓💓🌹🌹 !!!”

Spears’ fans and followers assured her in the comments that they would miss her, and added well-wishes as Spears expects her first child with Sam Asghari.

Spears, 40, and Asghari, 28, announced the pregnancy earlier this month. Spears reflected on losing weight on a trip to Maui, “only to gain it back.” Asghari apparently suggested Spears was “food pregnant.” But a pregnancy test revealed “I am having a baby,” Spears wrote. Asghari later confirmed the pregnancy with an Instagram post of his own, writing: “Marriage and kids are a natural part of a strong relationship filled with love and respect. Fatherhood is something i have always looked forward to and i don’t take lightly. It is the most important job i will ever do🙏”

The baby will join the two children Spears shares with ex-husband Kevin Federline, 44: Sean Preston, 16, and Jayden James, 15.
