Now, Britney Spears shot to fame back in 1998.
With songs such as Oops, I did it again and Slave 4 U, Britney quickly became one the most popular pop stars at the time as she gained fans around the world.
But, over the years, Britney’s mental health dramatically deteriorated as the pressures of the spotlight took a toll.
And eventually, in 2007, Britney suffered a highly public breakdown.
One of the results of Britney’s breakdown was that she was put under conservatorship.
Britney’s dad, Jamie Spears, was made the permanent conservator of his daughter’s affairs and co-conservator of her estate in 2008 meaning he could control every aspect of her life.
But, in recent years, following Britney’s cryptic posts on social media, the #FreeBritney movement to free her for the conservatorship was plunged into the spotlight.
And eventually, as people protested for Britney to be able to control her life, so did the star.
Britney began a fight to regain control of her own life back in 2020.
It took a long time, with a lot of knockbacks as things initially did not go her way…
But, after thirteen years, on November 13, 2021, Britney was freed from her conservatorship as it was terminated with immediate effect.
It was a day that people, including the singer, rejoiced.
Since then, Britney has been rebuilding her life and experiencing many things again.
Earlier this year, Britney shared the exciting news that she and her partner, Sam Asghari, were expecting a child together.
In an Instagram post, Britney wrote: “I lost so much weight to go on my Maui trip only to gain it back … I thought ‘Geez … what happened to my stomach ???'”
“My husband said ‘No you’re food pregnant silly !!!’ So I got a pregnancy test … and uhhhhh well … I am having a baby … 4 days later I got a little more food pregnant. It’s growing !!!”
But sadly, just weeks after her announcement, Britney shared some heartbreaking news.
In a post on Instagram, Britney wrote that she had “lost our miracle baby early in the pregnancy.”
“This is a devastating time for any parent,” she wrote. “Perhaps we should have waited to announce until we were further along. However, we were overly excited to share the good news.”
“Our love for each other is our strength. We will continue trying to expand our beautiful family. We are grateful for all of your support. We kindly ask for privacy during this difficult moment.”
After sharing the news, people around the world sent messages of support to the star.
And not only that, but many people praised the star for breaking the stigma of the twelve-week rule…
“Don’t even feel bad for announcing your pregnancy “early” that baby was alive and a spirit and a human and deserved to be announced,” one person commented on her Instagram post.
While another person wrote: “I’m thankful you announced. There is stigma with announcing too early, and then with miscarriage, you have to be quiet. By doing this, you allow space for others to heal just as you. The more we speak about it, the more we all know we experience it together. I’m sorry for your loss.”
Another person added: “Thank you for sharing this experience and normalizing it. So many of us have experienced this loss and it’s important to be able to talk about it. I’m sorry for your loss.”
As a fellow Instagram user, wrote: “Can we normalize sharing pregnancy news in the first trimester? Who cares if hearing about loss makes some people uncomfortable. As women, we shouldn’t be pressured to conceal our “condition.” I wish I knew how common miscarriage was when I had my first. It would have been nice to know about other women’s experiences beforehand. There’s no shame in it. If women feel better to share, then it should be encouraged. Not talking about conception or pregnancy struggles isn’t healthy for young women or anyone for that matter.”
A little while after the news, fans celebrated the star once again.
As she married her long-term boyfriend at an intimate ceremony in Los Angeles on June 9.
The pair have been dating since 2016 when they met on the set of her music video for Slumber Party, in which he appeared as her love interest.
Fans were overcome with excitement about the news of their wedding. Britney certainly deserves this day of love and happiness.
However, their big day didn’t come without tribulation, as Britney’s ex-husband made it his mission to disrupt the event.
Britney’s first husband, Jason Alexander, who she married back in 2004, before getting their marriage annulled just days later, showed up uninvited.
According to TMZ, Jason streamed the whole thing live on Instagram.
He allegedly told security that Britney had invited him and somehow managed to get inside her home.
Moments later, Ventura County Sheriff’s Department responded to a trespassing call at the home after a “physical struggle” occurred between Jason and security.
“She’s my first wife, my only wife,” Jason told security. “I’m her first husband, I’m here to crash the wedding.”
As per TMZ, Britney’s attorney Mathew Rosengart said he was “absolutely livid” about Jason’s actions.
Adding: “I am personally working with the sheriff’s department to ensure Mr. Alexander is aggressively prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
Thankfully, Britney was safe, and Jason was charged with trespassing, vandalism, and 2 counts of battery for attacking security.
And Britney didn’t let the disruption cause any more drama.
Britney discussed the theme of their wedding with Vogue, sharing that Jeffrey Best helped plan their big day.
“We really wanted to make this a small and beautiful moment with family and friends,” Britney said. “We wanted warm and feminine colors including blush, white, cream, and gold, and a lot of various shades of pinks, blush, and reds.”
Britney wore a custom Versace dress with a white veil, while Sam wore a black tux by Versace during the ceremony.
Charlotte Tilbury and her niece, Sofia, created her natural makeup look, “I was so thrilled and honored to be asked to design Britney’s bridal beauty look!” Charlotte admitted. “Britney is an icon of our time who has inspired and empowered us all with her joy and positive energy. She’s such a natural beauty and has the most mesmerizing big, brown eyes.”
The ten-minute ceremony took place under a blush tent at her home, with stars such as Madonna, Selena Gomez, Paris Hilton, Ansel Elgort, will.i.am, and Donatella Versace attending.
Throughout the night Britney changed into 3 different outfits all designed by Versace.
After the party ended, Britney and Sam left at 10:15 p.m, where they were driven away in a Rolls Royce.

It was also revealed that the couple signed a prenuptial agreement to protect Britney Spears’ fortune if they do part ways…
Which, we are almost certain they won’t.
But, it’s better to be on the safe and sensible side, right?
It’s not only Britney’s wealth that’s protected, though. Sam’s is, too.
According to TMZ, sources close to the couple revealed the news.
The news outlet revealed that Sam also joked about wanting the prenup to protect his Jeep and shoe collection, but the sources close to the couple have said that it was initially down to Britney’s legal team.
While the singer is worth a reported $60 million, Sam is worth $1 million, according to Style Caster.
And although things seemed to be going swimmingly for the pair, Britney’s ex, Kevin Federline, recently made some pretty shocking statements about Britney’s relationship with her children…
Causing Britney and Sam to hit back at Kevin’s statements…
Sam took to social media and said: “There is no validity to his statement regarding the kids distancing themselves and it is irresponsible to make that statement publicly.”
“The boys are very smart and will be 18 soon to make their own decisions and may eventually realize the ‘tough’ part was having a father who hasn’t worked much in over 15 years as a role model,” he added.
But the situation caught even more attention when Sam went on to rant about Kevin not supporting his own children…
“Kevin’s gravy train will end soon [which] probably explains the timing of these hurtful statements. I do not know him personally and have nothing against him aside him [deciding] to vilify my wife. His character is revealed by approval of the cruel 13 year [conservatorship] and his loyalty to Jaimie indicates his approval at time of its conception as well.”
“Things that are now considered normal issues and behavior easily dealt with in therapy or other ways were magnified to justify a 13 year sentence. I will not comment on this matter except to say I have a job,” he said.
And backed his wife to the point of slamming Kevin for saying such things in the interview…
“But for now: Keep my wife’s name… out your mouth,” he concluded.
But he wasn’t the only one who reacted to the shocking interview, as Britney expressed that it “saddened” her to know that her “ex-husband has decided to discuss the relationship” she shares with her children.
“It saddens me to hear that my ex-husband has decided to discuss the relationship between me and my children … as we all know, raising teenage boys is never easy for anyone … it concerns me the fact that the reason is based on my Instagram … it was LONG before Instagram … I gave them everything … Only one word: HURTFUL…”
“I’ll say it … My mother told me ‘You should GIVE them to their dad’ … I’m sharing this because I can … Have a good day folks!!!” she said.
Although Britney’s ex-partner Kevin supported the conservatorship, he confessed that the star singer had “lost custody of both kids” and even added that she was “ordered to undergo random drug testing by the family law judge before the conservatorship was created.”
And that’s not all, Kevin further revealed that their kids had “a lot of questions” about this…
“I don’t know that I can answer all of them for them but I just tried to explain to them that your mom needed help, you know, and the people were in play to try to make that happen, to make it better,” he said.
Kevin didn’t back away from mentioning how Britney’s father was a “really caring” man.
“When Jamie took over, things got into order. He saved her life,” he recalled.
Although he admitted in the past that “he wasn’t sure the conservatorship should have lasted 13 years.”
But in a twisting turn of events, Britney’s close pal, Jennifer Lopez, has lent her friend a helping hand through this whole ordeal.
That’s what friends are for, right?
In Britney’s original post, which featured a home video of the pop star, she shared some words of wisdom she once heard from J-Lo.
And trust us, it’s something you don’t want to miss!
“As Jennifer Lopez once said ‘You look right down that camera and tell every little girl in the world to get loud and never ever back down to giving light to injustice.
“I’m here to share that freedom is a state of mind!” Britney wrote on Instagram, along with the video.
“In a world where you have the right to use your feet…heart… mouth… eyes…and body…to express yourself however you may !!! Declaration of INDEPENDENCE … for equality and to be equal !!!” she added.
Recently it’s J-Lo’s support for her fellow pop star that has gotten all the attention.
On August 13, the ‘Let’s Get Loud’ singer reposted a photo on her Instagram stories of Britney and herself posing together at the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards.
According to reports, she was in favor of her close pal.
“Stay strong,” J-Lo wrote in support of Britney.
And with the outpouring support of J-Lo, another singer has backed Britney, this time leaving no stone unturned to slam her ex-husband…
Singer Nicki Minaj has also voiced her opinion on the Kevin-Britney controversy…
Nicki didn’t hold back during her Amp Livestream on August 16 and called Kevin a “clown” after he recently criticized Britney’s parenting.
“How dare you. How dare you encourage this woman’s children to be a part of your nonsense,” she said.
“When they look back, they’re gonna say, ‘Why, why, why did we do this?’ They’re kids. They don’t know how detrimental this is,” Nicki added.
“Do you understand what kind of a clown you have to be to be a whole, grown f**king man, and as soon as you see somebody happy and getting married and moving on and being free and feeling good in their own skin, to do the very thing that you know is going to attempt to break them down?
“Only cowards use the media against a famous person who they once loved, they procreated with, they’re being taken care of by…. using the person’s fame as this constant ‘gotcha’ moment,” she continued.
The Queen of Rap then went ahead and said she hopes karma will come for Kevin and added that she doesn’t believe anyone will feel sorry for him
Nicki also revealed that she has seen Britney’s devotion to her kids.
“She loves her kids more than life itself,” confessed Nicki.
Nicki then concluded by telling Kevin to “leave [Britney] the f**k alone.”
Sadly, it doesn’t look like Kevin got the memo, as he’s continued to speak out against his ex-wife…
He talked about his difficult role as a father during their marriage.
Kevin appeared on 60 Minutes Australia to give his side of the story.
In a short clip of the interview, Kevin says: “I was mortified for her. I really was. I still feel bad,” referring to her conservatorship.
He later addressed Britney’s relationship with their sons at the time, saying: “The boys, the boys, the boys, I had to worry about them. I couldn’t get involved.”
Adding: “It’s been a few months since they’ve seen her.”
But Federline wasn’t the only one to appear in the interview…
Their son, Jayden also spoke out about his upbringing and his mother’s mental health.
“I think Mom has struggled giving us both attention and showing us equal love & I don’t think she showed enough to Preston and I feel really bad for that,” he began.
“We’ve both been through so much pressure in the past that this is our safe place now, to process all the emotional trauma we’ve been through to heal, heal our mental state.”
Jayden, who spoke for himself and his older brother, talked about the difficulty of having a mom constantly in the spotlight but said he thinks their relationship with their mother is fixable.
“It’s just going to take a lot of time and effort,” he said, according to Daphne Barak’s account in the Daily Mail. “I just want her to get better mentally. When she gets better I really want to see her again.”
He addressed Britney directly, sharing how much he loves her.
“I love you a lot, I hope for the best for you,” Jayden said in an appeal to his mom. “Maybe one day we can sit down like this and talk again.”
Since hearing his comments, Britney spoke out, writing in an Instagram post: “[I]t deeply saddens me to know [Jayden’s] outcry of saying I wasn’t up to his expectations of a mother … and maybe one day we can meet face to face and talk about this openly !!!!”
She also hit back at some of his comments: “As for my mental health … my dear child understand you must learn to pick up a book and read one before you resort to even thinking about my intellect sweetheart !!!”
Britney also took offense to Jayden’s comments defending her father, claiming: “He was just trying to be a father.”
She wrote: “Psss if you can honestly sit back and say with your sensible brilliant mind what memaw and paw paw did to me was fine and call them not bad people … then yes I have failed as a mother and hopefully, that’s a chat for you and your father to sit face to face and try to learn WHAT’S GOOD.”
You can watch part of the interview here.
Britney went on a long rant on social media…
Mostly in response to Jayden publicly talking about her challenges as a mom.
She said she wonders if her son is worried that he won’t be getting any more money from her in a few years’ time, once he turns eighteen.
“Do you guys want me to get better so I can continue to give your dad $40,000 a month? Or is the reason behind you guys deciding to be hateful because it’s actually over in two years, and you don’t get anything?” Britney said.
Britney also addressed her relationship with her son, who she hasn’t seen in months.
She claimed that they ignored her when they were together in the past and that they never felt she was a good enough mother if she didn’t give them mountain-size gifts.
Britney also said that Jayden sounded just like her dad, Jamie Spears, in the interview…
And accused her son of secretly loving to look at her like something is wrong with her, the same thing she says the rest of her family is guilty of.
And in response to the unequal love and attention claims Jayden made…
She said Preston would sleep the whole time when she had her sons over, while Jayden would play the piano.
The star also hit out at her estranged father once again following comments her sons made about their grandfather.
“Honestly, my dad needs to be in jail for the rest of his life. But like I said, God would not allow that to happen to me if a God existed,” she said.
“I don’t believe in God anymore because of the way my children and my family have treated me. There is nothing to believe anymore. I’m an atheist y’all,” Britney stated.
She also claimed that her family “turned their back” on her in her darkest moment.
Britney has also revealed she feels she has “no purpose anymore” due to the rift between her and her sons.
In recordings released on Twitter, Britney shares that she “used to have my kids at one point, way more than Kevin,” but added that nobody remembers because “they always focus on the negative,” talking about her custody battle during her conservatorship.
“From when they were six to nine years old, I had them 70% of the time. Since they’ve been gone, I’ve honestly felt like a huge part of me has died,” she said.
Sharing more about the split from her boys, she said: “And then all of a sudden they were gone and I was like, ‘Did my heart just stop beating?’ And honestly, I don’t understand how it’s so easy for them just to cut me off like that.”
Britney also addressed comments made by Jayden to filmmaker Daphne Barak recently, when he said: “It’s almost like she has to post something on Instagram to get some attention,” discussing her frequent Instagram use.
Britney responded in her now-deleted audio recordings: “I do want to be heard and I’m angry, and I kind of subconsciously want to offend people because I’ve been so (expletive) offended,” Spears said. “But I’m afraid to inform you guys I’m not willing to see you until I feel valued.”
Despite this, she added that she loves her boys “more than anything” and apologized if she “ever hurt them in any way.”
You can listen to the audio here.
However, since the interview went viral, things haven’t been looking so good for the star.
Britney posted a video that has left fans feeling concerned.
“She choked herself as a dance move. That was weird even for her,” wrote one person.
“The hands… it’s just… so bad,” another agreed.
In one part of the dance Britney placed both her hands around her neck and pretended she was choking.
You can see the controversial video here.
She even revealed some secrets from her past.
In a now-deleted Instagram post, the star claims that her mom hit her “so hard” when she came in after a late night out partying, as per Page Six.
The star wrote: “The first time I ever got slapped was the one night Paris [Hilton] and Lindsay [Lohan] dropped me off at my beach house with my babies.
“My mother was watching Jayden and Preston [Britney’s 2 sons] … yes I partied till like 4 am and my mother was P*SSED !!!
“I walked in, she looked at me and hit me so hard that I will never forget it !!!”
Britney’s allegations come just after her mom Lynne apologized to the star, saying that she has “been sorry for years.”
Britney ended her revealing Instagram post by saying she has always wondered what it must feel like to slap someone…
The post concluded: “GUESS I WILL NEVER KNOW !!!! Stay classy folks !!!”
But that’s not all…
She also opened up about how she was badly treated by her father growing up.
She took to social media on Tuesday and captioned a series of now-deleted photos, writing: “Why did you and the family go along with it and treat me like a f**king dog ???”
“WHAT MAKES YOU SO GODDAMN SPECIAL ??? WHAT MAKES YOUR OTHER DAUGHTERS SO GODDAMN SPECIAL THAT YOU TREATED ME LESS THAN A F**KING DOG ???”
She added that she prays every day “to f**king god you get just 5 minutes of the pain I felt” and that she hopes he “burn[s] in hell you sorry son of a b***ch !!!”
Britney also posted screenshots, in which she wrote: “In the conservatorship, I felt absolutely nothing. I was sad, had no say in my looks in photoshoots, had to follow guidelines … I will say it until the day I f**king die … my family ruined my f**king life !!!”
She elaborated on what her dad used to say to her, writing he “always told me I was fat so I never felt pretty or good enough.”
“He was never a father to me because he was always drunk !!!” Britney continued. “The reason I’m talking about this is because I know I try to present myself as being perfect and pretty … but it’s because I know what it feels like to feel ugly and scared !!! To be told ‘THERE IS NO LOOKING AT THAT FACE OF YOURS.’”
The singer added that he would make her feel bad about her appearance.
“HE WOULD GO LOW !!! He was the lowest,” she wrote, explaining that he would compare her past boyfriend’s “perfect,” body with hers, saying that she “need[ed] to work on myself because I wasn’t fit.”
“WHAT FATHER TELLS HIS DAUGHTER THAT HER BOYFRIEND HAS A PERFECT BODY ??? And I have a lot of work to do ???” she said.
Britney concluded her post, urging her followers to “FEEL BEAUTIFUL TODAY !!!”
Since then, Britney has shared more details about her past online…
Including a 2-minute audio clip in which the singer reflected on having 3 MRIs done before she was sent to a mental health facility in early 2019.
“The whole thing didn’t make sense,” Britney, said of each hour-long exam.
“[I didn’t understand] the isolation, the nurses, the vials of blood, the constant communication,” she continued, and noted that while she thought she may have been getting treated for cancer, “None of that was true.”
Britney then clarified: “I’m fine. I’m alive. … The hardest thing is to know that they were just being mean and that I really felt like my dad was trying to kill me. And I hope he burns in f***ing hell.”
The star tweeted that she believed in consequences for her dad, who was her conservator from 2008 until his suspension in 2021.
“My wish is to take my father to a place … take his car away … his home away … his door to privacy away,” she wrote, listing everything she was subjected to while in treatment.
“Sit him down 7 days a week from 8 am to 6 pm being asked questions and people treating him like a science experience [sic] … monitoring his food … no phone … nurses watch him shower and dress.”
Britney confessed she wants to “see how [Jamie] would feel” under those circumstances…
“I don’t see how they get to walk away so easily and get away with what was done to me … the world has shown me and the world only that cruelty wins !!!” she wrote.
Jamie continues to deny any wrongdoings concerning Britney’s conservatorship, repeatedly stating through his attorneys that he “loves his daughter” and acted in her best interests.
But fans were still concerned about Brit’s well-being recently.
So much so that they called the Ventura Co. Sheriff’s Office.
And that the police actually paid a visit to Britney at her home, as per TMZ.
They have now “determined there was no reason to believe she was in danger.”
And Britney was not happy about the incident.
She took to Twitter to share her response, writing: “As everyone knows, the police were called to my home based on some prank phone calls. I love and adore my fans but this time things went a little too far and my privacy was invaded.”
“The police never entered my home and when they came to my gate they quickly realized there was no issue and left immediately.”
“I truly hope the public and my fans who I care so much about can respect my privacy moving forward,” she concluded.
But Brit then finally had some good news.
She has finally got full control of her money.
On January 20, a judge ruled that Britney will have full control of her finances and is no longer responsible for her father’s legal fees.
And as for that figure?
The New York Times claims that Britney has a fortune of about $60 million.
While Celebrity Net Worth claims she has more like $70 million!
However, the most recent news has fans once again concerned for the star.
Britney is no stranger to a bizarre Instagram post…
But her latest might just be her weirdest yet.
In the image, Britney is in a bathtub.
But it’s the strange caption that left many feeling confused.
One fan wrote: “The caption is sending me into orbit!”
“The head-shaving incident doesn’t look so crazy these days,” another person commented.
Take a look at the post here.
