Almost 14 years since Britney Spears was considered unable to care for herself, essentially losing control of every aspect of her life, a judge ruled that was " no longer required."
The conservatorship that controlled her finances, medical treatment, recreational activities, travel, and more has ended.
Britney spoke out against the conservatorship back in June, it was the first time she'd done so in 2 years.
That's when she told a judge directly that she was not happy and she wanted to the conservatorship to end. “I just want my life back,” Spears said.
In 2019, she told the court that she was forced into a stay at a mental health facility and that she was made to perform while sick. That same year she began to seek significant changes in the conservatorship and announced an indefinite work hiatus. Under the conservatorship, she released 4 albums and began her Las Vegas residency. Britney previously expressed fear of her father and said she would not return to work as long as he was in charge.
With a new lawyer in tow, former prosecutor Matthew Rosengart, Britney and her personal conservator Jodi Montgomery, began to work on a "termination care plan."
In the end, the conservatorship has come to a close and for the first time in a long time what Britney wants to do is up to... her.
