Britney Spears has told a court that her conservatorship prevents her from marrying and having children.
The singer has been under a conservatorship since her public meltdown in 2008, with her father Jamie Spears acting as her conservator to control her personal and business affairs.
On Wednesday, fans rallied behind her outside as Britney, 39, spoke out against her conservatorship publicly, as she said she feels abused by the controlling system she has been placed under.
She said: “I am not happy, I can’t sleep. I’m so angry, it’s insane. And I’m depressed. I am traumatised. I just want my life back.
“I want to end this conservatorship without being evaluated. This conservatorship is doing me way more harm than good. I deserve to have a life. I've worked my whole life. I deserve to have a two to three-year break.”
The Toxic hitmaker went on to accuse her father and her conservatorship team of refusing to allow her to marry her boyfriend, Sam Asghari, or have children with him.
Britney – who is mother to Sean, 15, and Jayden, 14, whom she has with her ex-husband Kevin Federline – claims her conservators have made her get an IUD as a form of birth control so she cannot currently have children, even though she wants to “get married and have a baby” with Sam.
She added: “I want to be able to get married and have a baby. I have an IUD inside of myself so that I don’t get pregnant, but [my team doesn’t] want me to have any more children.”
The star called her current situation “abusive”, and even called for her father and those involved with her conservatorship to be “jailed”.
She fumed: “They have me going to therapy three times a week and to a psychiatrist.
“My dad and anyone involved in this conservatorship, including my management … they should be in jail.”
Following Britney’s remote appearance in court, her dad’s legal team have released a statement that said: “He is sorry to see is daughter suffering and in so much pain. Mr Spears loves his daughter very much.”
