Britney Spears addressed a judge in court for the first time in her 13-year conservatorship on Wednesday. She requested that the court order, which she believes has limited her freedom, be terminated in her message. This follows months of legal fights between the singer and her legal team, as well as increased media attention brought on by the documentary Framing Britney Spears and the second wave of the #FreeBritney movement. During the hearing, Spears was quite outspoken and stated various reasons why the conservatorship should be lifted. One such instance occurred when the singer announced that her conservators would not permit her to have a child.
“All I want is to own my money … and for this to end … and for my boyfriend to be able to f*cking drive me in his car,” she said, according to the Rolling Stone. “And honestly … I want to be able to sue my family … I have an IUD in my body right now that won’t let me have a baby and my conservators won’t let me go to the doctor to take it out. I wanna be able to get married and have a baby.”
In regards to the overall conservatorship, Brintey said, “I’ve been in denial. I’ve been in shock. I am traumatized. I just want my life back.” She also requested to have the conservatorship end “without having to be evaluated.”
