We had a lot to be thankful for yesterday, but mostly we were thankful that Selena Gomez returned to social media.
The 24-year-old singer shared a thankful Thanksgiving message with her fans on Instagram on Thursday after 14 weeks away.
This is a welcome return of one of the social network’s most popular celebrities after both Justin Bieber and Kendall Jenner recently deactivated their accounts.
“I have only wanted to reflect the love you guys have given me for years and show how important it is to take care of YOU,” Selena captioned her picture. “By grace through faith. Kindness always wins. I love you guys. God bless (sic)”
Selena was also seen at the 2016 American Music Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday and it was her first public appearance since taking time off to seek professional help for some health-related problems.
“I want to be proactive and focus on maintaining my health and happiness and have decided that the best way forward is to take some time off,” the star said in mid-October. “Thank you to all my fans for your support.”
Welcome back, Selena!
