In 2019, the #FreeBritney motion gained momentum as the singer abruptly cancelled a planned Las Vegas residency and entered a facility for psychological health treatment after her dad was hospitalized over a life-threatening colon rupture. Rumours spread she was sent to the center against her choice, but she has denied all the rumours.
@britneyspears we are thinking of you, and stand with you in your right to be a free woman!! #FreeBritney #BritneySpears #Britney

While her dad recuperated, licensed master conservator Jodi Montgomery replaced him as a conservator on the terms it was meant to be a short-term role. Though the next year, Spears filed a brand-new movement to make Montgomery her permanent conservator and also stated through her legal support team that she “strongly opposed” to her dad returning to the role or even getting a say in her financial decisions in the future.
While conservatorships are often for the aged or maybe people with physical or mental issues, Spears continues to perform with her best ability and completely normal behaviour, in fact, better than ever, earning a large fortune through record sales, perfume endorsements, and taking on the position of being a judge on X-Factor along with a coveted four-year Las Vegas residency. Forbes estimated Spears may be worth $60 million earlier this season.
Nevertheless, Singer Britney Spears was trending on Twitter Wednesday because of a coordinated effort by her fans to help give her a good look and reputation in court next week, her very first period testifying in a conservatorship situation which really helped push the #FreeBritney social networking campaign.
Additional information around the limitations of Britney Spears’s conservatorship came to light forward of Wednesday’s very highly anticipated hearing. Based on confidential court records newly received by The New York Times, the pop star has opposed her father’s control ever since 2014.
Britney feels the arrangement to defend her had “too much control,” based on a report authored by a court investigator in 2016.
She articulated she feels the conservatorship has become an oppressive and controlling tool against her.
The probate investigator wrote. (In California conservatorships, a court investigator conducts occasional reviews.) According to the investigator’s account of the conversation, Spears emphasized, “too, too much!” control.
Her conservatorship as per reports restricts her from who she can form a romantic bond with to the choice of colour of her kitchen cupboards. Britney claimed her dad was “obsessed” with her, per the investigator’s article, and he wanted to manage virtually every part of her daily life. She couldn’t even make friendships without her father’s approval or even decorate her home as per her wish.
So britney spears has never had a DUI yet is under the control of someone who not only has a DUI but several rehab stints 😑🤔🤔🤔🤔 #FreeBritney

Based on documents, she was just provided with a $2,000 weekly grant even though she is making millions from her luxury Las Vegas residence. Jamie gets $16,000 per month as well as an extra $2,000 for business rent, based on documents obtained by The New York Times. The court even allowed Jamie to get a commission of different deals he sets in place for Britney.
In 2014, Samuel D. Ingham III who is Britney’s court-appointed lawyer stated his client needed the conservatorship to stop. He cited Jamie’s relapse with alcoholic beverages and abusive behaviour behind closed doors among the long list of her grievances. Jamie faced accusations of verbal and physical abuse and which were examined by police in 2019 after an altercation with one of Britney’s sons. Jamie was eventually cleared.
In 2016 an investigator from the court wrote,
She is ‘sick of being taken advantage of’ and she said she is the one working and earning her money but everyone around her is on her payroll.
Britney told the official she desired the conservatorship to be terminated quickly this was not her very first time articulating that desire. The previous month, Jamie’s attorney, Vivian Thoreen became vocal about the media coverage of the court hearings and made-up theories that Britney is being held against her wish. As the #FreeBritney movement creates that impression.
Thoreen stated,
I understand that every story wants to have a villain, but people have it so wrong here,” said Thoreen. “This is a story about a fiercely loyal, loving and dedicated father who rescued his daughter from a life-threatening situation. People were harming her and they were exploiting her. Jamie saved Britney’s life.
The most recent papers submitted by Ingham validate her statement and that while Britney has the right to end the conservatorship. However, up till now, she has not requested a complete termination, she has only asked for the removal of her father from this role.
Britney Spears' current situation makes me sick. But I am in awe of her resilience to carry on and fight for what she thinks (and actually is) an unfair treatment. There is zero doubt that she has been abused and yet she continues to be a kind and brave woman. #FreeBritney

Britney levied disturbing statements against her dad, alleging she was pushed into a mental health center against her will on exaggerated justification. She thought it had been punished for standing in place for herself during rehearsing. Britney stated she was obligated by her father to practice with a 104-degree fever, calling it among probably the scariest moments of her life.
Britney is slated to talk during Wednesday’s hearing about the “status of the conservatorship,” although what she plans to speak about is not specifically clear at the moment.
