For the last two years, the singer has been working to have her father, Jamie Spears, removed as a conservator of her estate and person.
Though she has not spoken publicly about the debacle, her former assistant and other individuals, who worked closely with the pop star, spoke to The New York Times for the FX docuseries Framing Britney Spears. Their statements about her decline in mental health and the events leading to her being placed in a conservatorship has brought renewed attention to her plight.
The series also raised questions about Britney’s ability to speak for herself, causing some to wonder if she writes her own Instagram posts.
Speculation was heightened when the star wrote on Instagram, “Remember, no matter what we think we know about a person’s life it is nothing compared to the actual person living behind the lens.”
