This should be a non-issue if you use Apple’s privacy settings to limit Facebook to only have access to the photos you want to use.

I’d highly recommend never granting any app full access to your photos.

Android also has limited photos access nowadays.

maybe they changed it, but last time I checked I could not upload on instagram on Android with limited access. It required full access, plus camera/microphone in order to post.
