Britney Spears Needs Conservatorship For Safety 2 Years After Termination Of Court Order: Report
Britney Spears sparked concerns due to her recent behavior, prompting insiders to say she might need another conservatorship.
Spears reportedly had a fight with her boyfriend, Paul Soliz, on Wednesday. In the photos obtained by TMZ, the "Baby One More Time" singer was photographed walking out of the hotel wrapped in a blanket and a pillow. She was noticeably crying.
The pair reportedly drank and partied. However, when they returned to their room, they got into an argument that turned physical. She was reportedly almost driven away in an ambulance but left without her security and Soliz.
Several claimed she was having a mental breakdown. Sources said she might have hurt her leg. Spears even shared a clip of herself with her injured ankle on Instagram. According to her, she accidentally twisted it. She blamed her mom for the incident and claimed she was "set up."
An anonymous insider, who is highly familiar with Spears' court case and the internet campaign #FreeBritney, spoke with Page Six following the reported altercation and claimed that the singer might need another conservatorship. The pop princess was previously put under a conservatorship for over a decade, but it was terminated in November 2021.
"The narrative of Britney having been locked away for no good reason other than her dad being evil and wanting to work her for every last penny has always been wrong," the source said. "There is no question that Jamie Spears is a flawed father, and the way that Britney was put to work in Vegas was awful. It should never have happened."

"However, there is also no question that the conservatorship -- and the interventions prior to it -- happened for a reason, and it wasn't because her dad wanted to make some nefarious money grab. It was put in place because Britney has serious mental health issues and was going completely off the rails."
Before the recent incident involving Spears, another insider who knew Spears' dad told the outlet that he wasn't the villain in his daughter's conservatorship.
"I have never believed that Jamie is the villain in this situation," the source said. "I think he has been unfairly vilified by people who know nothing about the situation and have nothing to do with it. I hate to say it, but he could be vindicated."
The insider added that the Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Brenda Penny never put the "Toxic" hitmaker through an evaluation when she decided to terminate the 13-year conservatorship. Penny said there was "no need for a capacity declaration" at the time because it had been a voluntary conservatorship.
An ex-boyfriend of Spears, who wasn't named but reportedly dated her while she was under conservatorship, told the outlet that she needed "real people" around her and should stop the meds she was taking.
"I think she needs to get off all meds, avoid drugs and alcohol and pick up the Bible," Spears' ex said. "She always said, too, that she wanted to go home to Louisiana. I hope she does. I'm not sure why she's still in LA. It's a cesspool there."
Before Soliz, Spears was with Sam Asghari. The two sparked dating rumors in 2016 and made their relationship Instagram official in January 2017. They tied the knot in June 2022 and split a year later, on July 30, 2023, citing "irreconcilable differences that have led to the irremediable breakdown of the marriage, making it impossible for the parties to live together as husband and wife."
The Hollywood star and her ex-husband finalized their divorce on May 2, per People.
