Who controls Britney’s finances?
Despite her incredible music career, Britney did not have legal control over her life and fortune for 12 years.
Her lawyer and father, Jamie Spears, were appointed as her conservators in 2008, following the singer’s series of public meltdowns.
In 2020, Britney’s conservatorship was extended four times.
Despite the conservatorship, Britney continued to release music and had a four-year Las Vegas residency.
But after signs indicated that Britney was unhappy with her conservatorship, the hashtag #FreeBritney trended on social media as a result of allegations that the singer is being held against her will.
On June 23, 2021, Britney gave a sensational testimony in front of a court. She pleaded with a judge to end the arrangement, saying it was “doing me way more harm than good”.
She told the court she wanted to marry her boyfriend and have a baby, but that the conservatorship won’t allow it.
She said her silence over the years has mistakenly been interpreted as complicity.
“I’ve lied and told the whole world, ‘I’m okay, I’m happy’,” she said.
“I’ve been in denial, I’ve been in shock. I am traumatized.”
On November 12, 2021, a judge granted Britney’s wish, and her conservatorship was terminated.
Upon termination, the singer resumed control of her finances and other assets.
