Britney Spears and Father Reach Settlement After Conservatorship Ends
Pop star Britney Spears has reached a settlement with her estranged father, Jamie Spears, following the court-ordered termination of her 13-year conservatorship. The terms of the settlement have not been disclosed by their attorneys, but both sides expressed relief that the legal battles are finally over.
Britney’s attorney, Mathew Rosengart, described it as an honor to represent the singer and stated that her freedom is now truly complete. Meanwhile, Jamie Spears expressed his happiness that the conservatorship has come to an end and stated that he only wants the best for his daughter.
The conservatorship, which was put in place in 2008 with Jamie Spears as the conservator, came under intense scrutiny after Britney gave explosive testimony in June 2021. In her testimony, she pleaded with the judge to end the conservatorship, which she described as ‘abusive’ and claimed had stripped her of her womanhood and music artistry.
Following her testimony, Britney was granted the ability to hire her own lawyer and retained Mathew Rosengart. In September 2021, a judge suspended Jamie Spears as Britney’s conservator, paving the way for the eventual termination of the arrangement in November 2021.
Since regaining her freedom, Britney has been active on social media, released new music, and published a best-selling memoir. In the memoir, she detailed the soul-crushing years she spent under the conservatorship and opened up about the impact it had on her personal and professional life.
Fans of Britney Spears have rallied around her throughout the legal battle, using the hashtag #FreeBritney to show their support. Now that the conservatorship has ended and a settlement has been reached with her father, Britney can focus on moving forward with her life and career without legal restrictions.
