600Why was Belle Delphine banned from Instagram?
News of Delphine’s Instagram ban first surfaced on July 19, with posts on Reddit confirming that her account had been taken down following reports about her content.

600Is Belle Delphine permanently banned from Instagram?
Neither Delphine nor Instagram have addressed whether the ban placed on the account is temporary or permanent, but most bans for nudity or pornographic content are permanent pending an appeal.
Temporary bans typically last 24-48 hours, but with the 19-year-old’s account still locked five days later, it seems likely that her account won’t be automatically reinstated any time soon.

With her account boasting over four million followers at the time of its ban, Delphine will be anxious to regain access to her original account, but it is possible that Instagram decline the appeal.
