In cases where you do not want someone specific to see your Instagram stories, you can add them to your Hide From Story list.
When you hide stories from followers, they will be able to see your regular posts in their home feed, view your profile and even interact with you but they will not see your stories appear in their stories feed or on your profile. This is preferable to blocking them or removing them as followers.
Hiding stories from certain people can be done by adjusting your settings.
