Britney Spears ‘thinks her conservator dad treats her like a child’ and ‘doesn’t listen to her’
BRITNEY Spears reportedly thinks her conservator dad Jamie “treats her like a child”.
Jamie Spears, 68, was in charge of the singer’s financial and daily affairs from 2008 until last September, when he temporarily stepped down.
And sources claimed Britney thinks her father doesn’t “listen” to her or “treat her like an adult”.
“Britney still wants the conservatorship to end at some point,” a source told People.
“But more urgently right now she doesn’t want her dad to regain the sole conservator role.
Jamie is very old school. He treats Britney like a child.”
The insider went on: “Britney wants someone who is respectful and considerate to be in charge of her conservatorship. Someone from the outside who is not her family.
“Someone who will treat her like an adult and listen to her. She will never have this relationship with Jamie.”
Britney said she was “strongly opposed” to Jamie being her conservator, in court documents filed earlier this month.
Last Wednesday, a judge at a Los Angeles judge ruled that the 38-year-old will remain under the legal control of her father, Jamie Spears, indefinitely, according to documents obtained by Variety.
Despite Britney filing a request earlier this week asking for her dad to be removed from the conservatorship, the extension remains until at least February 1, 2021.
The outlet reported that the singer’s dad and mom, Lynne – as well as four attornies – all took part in the discussions during the hearing.
Britney lost her battle to have her father removed as the sole guardian of her legal and financial affairs at an LA courthouse..
The Toxic songstress had asked a judge to make her temporary care manager Jodi Montgomery – who took over last year when her father became ill – to continue permanently as her conservator.
She also wants “a major overhaul in how her conservatorship is run is needed to reflect her current lifestyle and her wishes”.
This confirms reports that the star no longer wishes to perform at this moment in time.
Why is #freebritney trending and what does the star have to say about her conservatorship?
Britney’s conservatorship has sparked outrage among fans, particularly since she herself has made it clear she does not want it to continue in its current form.
It was implemented in 2008 after a series of public meltdowns.
Britney’s lawyer, Samuel D Ingham III has said that she is “strongly opposed” to Jamie Spears continuing to control her affairs.
Due to health issues last year – which are came after claims of a physical altercation with his grandson Sean Preston – Jamie had stepped down temporarily from his role in Britney’s conservatorship.
Britney instead wants Jodi Montgomery, who is a trained conservator, to have permanent control.
Jamie Spears says Britney’s conservatorship is “no one else’s business” and #FreeBritney movement “is a joke.”
He told Page Six: “All these conspiracy theorists don’t know anything. The world don’t have a clue.
“It’s up to the court of California to decide what’s best for my daughter. It’s no one else’s business.”

The latest development is that Britney’s younger sister Jamie Lynn has reportedly been given control of her multi-million dollar fortune.
The 29-year-old actress was allegedly named the trustee of the “SJB Revocable Trust” – which Britney created in 2004 to protect her assets.
The trust was also set up to ensure her children are taken care of financially, as stated in documents obtained by The Blast.
According to legal docs from the most recent filing, the trust has also set up a plan for how Britney’s estate will be handled in the case of her death.
