Flashing peace signs and matching grins, the caption read: "We've got some news to share!!" with a teasing "Watch this space."
Naturally, this set the rumour mill spinning faster than a pint of Guinness goes down on St. Patrick's Day.
Element Pictures, the production powerhouse behind Normal People, got in on the action too, sharing the photo and adding fuel to the speculative fire.
Fans immediately took to social media, pouring out their excitement and curiosity.
One eager viewer exclaimed on X (formerly Twitter): "WHAT?!? Normal People season 2? Daisy and Paul you’re playing with my emotions and I’m not here for it!!!"
Another chimed in: "if they announce normal people season 2 i might cry," while a third mused: "if the [peace] signs they are making are for season 2 of Normal People im gonna scream."

For those who missed the sensation that was Normal People, the show is adapted from Sally Rooney's best-selling novel of the same name.
It dives deep into the tumultuous and deeply emotional relationship between Marianne, portrayed by Daisy Edgar-Jones, and Connell, brought to life by Paul Mescal.
Marianne is the school's brilliant but misunderstood outcast, while Connell is the popular football star.
Their unlikely bond is forged through Connell's mother, who works as a cleaner at Marianne's family's mansion.
Despite their connection, Connell keeps their relationship under wraps due to Marianne's lower social standing at school.
However, the tables turn when they both end up at Trinity College in Dublin.
Marianne's unique charm and intellect make her popular, while Connell finds himself struggling to fit in, relying heavily on his bond with Marianne.
Their journey through love and personal growth is anything but smooth, marked by other romances, misunderstandings, and their personal struggles.
Earlier this year, Paul Mescal opened up about the whirlwind of fame brought on by the show.
Speaking on The Louis Theroux Podcast, he said: "To go from [being] totally anonymous to not anonymous is kind of the biggest jump.
"You develop your own set of rules, but you develop a kind of coping mechanism from that junction and the rest is hopefully gonna stay nice and level."
This isn't the first time the Normal People co-stars have teased fans with the possibility of more.
Their chemistry both on and off the screen has left fans yearning for more of Marianne and Connell's story. With the recent Instagram tease, the excitement has reached a fever pitch.
So, what could this news be? A second season? A reunion special? A new project altogether? The possibilities are endless, and the anticipation is palpable. One thing is for sure: whatever Daisy and Paul are cooking up, it’s bound to be a treat.
Will Marianne and Connell find their way back to each other? Will they overcome the obstacles that once tore them apart? Only time will tell.
