Britney Spears was in a conservatorship for a long time. It lasted 13 years and lasted over a decade. She didn’t have much control over her life during that time. It wasn’t until the Free Britney movement gained momentum that real change began to happen. Spears is now free from conservatorship and is thankful for the small things in her life.
It was recently announced that a judge had terminated Britney Spears’ conservatorship after 13 long years. Fans celebrated and Britney took to Twitter to thank everyone. InstagramTo speak directly to her fans who stayed by her side. She recently talked about the little things she’s grateful for like having the keys to her car, seeing cash for the first time and more:
Well let’s see, I’ve been in the conservatorship for 13 years. That’s a really long time to be in a situation that you don’t want to be in. So, I’m just grateful honestly for each day and being able to have the keys to my car and being able to be independent as like a woman. Seeing cash for the first-time, having an ATM card. The ability to purchase candles. It’s the little things for us women, but it makes a huge difference.
Britney Spears’ conservatorship was a difficult and long process that eventually led to the court system, and even appearances by the singer. Britney Spears’ story was made public thanks to documentaries streaming on streaming services. Then, just a couple of months ago, Spears’ father Jamie Spears was suspended from the conservatorship.
Britney Spears hasn’t spoken about the conservatorship much in recent years. However, once word began spreading and the #FreeBirdie movement grew, Britney used her platform to speak more about what was happening. While she mainly used the platform to update her fans and ease their fears, she has started posting more about her current situation and impending freedom.
The Princess of Pop spoke out about her feelings about freedom and being able to drive free of restrictions, even before the conservatorship ended. These victories were celebrated with many celebrities even contributing their weight. While promoting the film House of GucciLady Gaga discussed the importance of mental well-being and wished Spears the best. “Hold it Against Me” singer gets everything she’s been wanting. Below are her comments.
Despite mentioning fears about being on the road again, it seems like Britney Spears has plenty of reason to still be excited and grateful for every little thing that she wasn’t able to do while under the conservatorship. She’s had to keep a pretty private life because of it. I get it. You can feel blessed by the little things in life, especially this past year.
With Spears free from the conservatorship and with a new future on the horizon, it’s likely she will want to take this time to be with her sons and her fiancé. Hopefully after some time, the singer will come back to her fans in full force, and we’ll be waiting with patience and anticipation.
