Britney Spears’ memoir, “The Woman in Me,' is the story many fans have been waiting to tell — the story, she says, she had been unable to tell, after her father placed her in a 13-year-long conservatorship. “I’m Britney Spears now,” Britney Spears recalls her father, Jamie Spears, saying while she was under his conservatorship in the memoir. During that time, others had final say over her finances, movements and reproductive capabilities.
.com has gone out to Jamie Spears for comment. A judge ended Britney Spears’ conservatorship in June 2021, following an emotional testimony delivered over the phone. Ever since, the public has been hearing more about Spears’ interior life and the family life that shaped her. Britney Spears’ parents, Jamie and Lynne Spears, were present for their daughter’s rise to fame , but have hit rocky periods since.
.com has reached out to Bryan Spears for comment. Starting when Spears was in eighth grade, she writes that she and her mom would drink together for fun. “I loved that I was able to drink with my mom every now and then. The way we drank was nothing like how my father did it. When he drank, he grew more depressed and shut down. We became happier, more alive and adventurous,” she writes in the memoir.
.com has reached out to Timberlake for comment. Britney Spears says part of the difficulty with the breakup involved losing the warmth of Timberlake’s family, especially as it compared to her. “Part of what made that period of time so difficult is that Justin’s family had been the only real, loving family I had … My mom would come out and visit us every once in a while but she’s not who I went home to, ever.
.com’s prior reporting, Spears said her father “saved life with the conservatorship. Her tune changed after 13 years under its control. Calling in to a courtroom hearing in June 2021, Britney Spears stated her intentions: “I am here to get rid of my dad and charge him with conservator abuse.” A lawyer for Jamie Spears said, at the hearing, said, “Mr. Spears loves his daughter, and misses her very much.
