Britney Spears took to instagram today with ‘proof’ of her family's mistreatment of her. But not long after the screenshots were posted, they were deleted.
The posts contained screenshots allegedly taken during Britney’s conservatorship of conversations with her mother Lynne Spears, a ‘friend from home’, and Britney’s lawyer at the time Sam Ingham.
First in the instagram post were text messages Britney claims she sent from within a mental health facility in 2019 - back when she was still under her conservatorship and fans were beginning to protest her situation.
Britney captioned the post 'Here are text messages to my mom in that place 3 years ago…I show it because there was no response… When I got out, her words were “you should have let me visit you and give you a hug'.
The messages show Britney texting her mother Lynne Spears to voice concern about increases in medication. 'He was saying he wants to UP the seroquel, and I’m like whoaaaaaaa horsey go f–k yourself…Seroquel I thought was a sleep aid but it’s for bipolar and is WAAAAAY stronger than lithium.'
Britney continued in her message 'I literally feel alll the sick medicine in my stomach…I feel like he’s trying to kill me. I swear to god I do.'
The other screenshots posted are of conversations with a friend saved in Britney’s phone as ‘Jansen’. According to Britney’s instagram caption Jansen had promised to help Britney get a new lawyer, but never did.
The third screenshots appear to show correspondance with Britney’s then lawyer Sam Ingham. Ingham had been Britney’s court appointed lawyer since her conservatorship began back in 2008.
In the messages Britney talks about the things she wants to change, including her ‘medical rights’, new security guards, and to stop working.
Spears, who is now 40 also asks that her boyfriend have the ‘right to spend the night with me’. She goes on 'I’ve been in the [conservatorship] for 12 years I want it over'
'When this program is over I don’t want to work at all,' she wrote. 'I want to live for me and have an adventurous life … I want asswhole benson to let me drive again'.
The ‘asswhole benson’ Britney refers to is Dr. Timothy Benson, her psychiatrist during her conservatorship and the man many accuse of being responsible for her mistreatment. Benson died in 2019 just as the battle surrounding Britney’s conservatorship was beginning to heat up.
Britney ends the message to her lawyer with 'I want to go on three vacations this year …. Miami, New York. And Kauai.' And we hope she does!
From the outside it looks like Britney has been living her best life since her conservatorship ended - getting married, taking vacations, and making up for lost time. We hope she’s okay because she has worked hard to live the ‘adventurous life’ she wrote about in these screenshots
