I added the link to my blog on my instagram account; however when I press on it I’m directed to WordPress.com homepage instead of to my blog. Can someone help please.

Are your referring to this site https://cottonpinkpeony.wordpress.com/ which is yet to have any published content on it?
Have you used this guide Authorizing Instagram Account Access
https://en.support.wordpress.com/instagram/instagram-widget/#authorizing-instagram-account-access -
if you are referring to authorization for Instagram ans use of the Instagram widget on a wordpress.COM site, make sure you are logged into Instagram when doing the Instagram widget set up. The Admin login link to the dashboard for every blog hosted by wordpress.COM is:
http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/
* You will have to replace “name_of_blog” with your actual blog’s name in that URL.
http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/widgets.php
Navigate to > Dashboard > Appearance > Widgets
* You will have to replace “name_of_blog” with your actual blog’s name in that URL.
The Instagram widget allows you to display your latest Instagram photos in your site’s sidebar and the guide for setting up the only one that will work on a wordpress.COM hosted blog is here https://en.support.wordpress.com/instagram/instagram-widget/
Also, note this support doc
https://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/#widget-visibilityIs your Instagram account public? Or is is private, and therefore, blocked when it comes to display of images in the widget on your blog? And, are you logged in when authorizing it?
This particular widget needs to be authorized using the WP admin widget page rather than the customizer. If you go to Dashboard > Appearance> Widgets from the WP Admin dashboard and authorize the widget from there, you’ll have much better luck.
