Britney Spears Made to Wear IUD Against Will

Britney Spears appeared in court via video call earlier today to ask a judge to end conservatorship that has controlled her life for over 12 years. Britney’s father, Jamie Spears, has been her sole conservator for much of that time. He has been co-conservator with an independent organization since November 2020, which was a preceded by a 14-month period where was temporarily replaced.

During the hearing earlier today, Britney made a 24-minute statement where she said she is being abused by her family and would like to sue them. She also said that the conservatorship is preventing her from making many personal decisions, including getting married and having a child. With regard to the latter, Britney says she is being made to wear an intrauterine device (IUD) against her will.

According to reports, confidential court records from previous hearings reveal new details about the singer’s years-long fight to end the conservatorship. A report from 2016 quotes Spears as feeling taken advantage of and describing the conservatorship as oppressive, lamenting that there are restrictions on who she can date and even the color of her kitchen cabinets.

In November 2020, when Jamie Spears was reinstated as a co-conservator, Britney told the court — through her attorney — that she is afraid of her father and that she will no longer perform as long as he is in control of her career.
