Kerry Washington celebrates St. Patrick’s Day and March Madness early as she announces social media hiatus: ‘This is what I would have posted!’
Just because Kerry Washington is taking a social media hiatus doesn’t mean she will be missing out on any of the upcoming action.
The actress, 44, took to her Instagram account on Wednesday to announce her weeks-long break with a video of what she would have posted throughout the month of March.
‘Hey everybody, so I’m going to take a little bit of a social media hiatus. I’m going to be gone for a few weeks, but there’s so many exciting things that are going to happen. So this is what I would have posted,’ she told her followers.
