“I love and adore everyone who supported me,” Britney wrote on Instagram soon after. “But refusing to speak when you know the truth, is equivalent to a lie!!!”
She continued, “13 years being in a corrupt abusive system yet why is it such a hard topic for people to talk about??? I’m the one who went through it!!!”
In June, Christina gave a public statement about the singer’s conservatorship.
“These past few days I’ve been thinking about Britney and everything she is going through,” she captioned a picture of her and Brit. “It is unacceptable that any woman, or human, wanting to be in control of their own destiny might not be allowed to live life as they wish.”
Another person in Britney’s corner? Lady Gaga. The “Toxic” artist thanked the House of Gucci star for publicly supporting her in November. ”Thank you @LadyGaga for genuinely taking your time to say something so kind. You made me cry!!! I love you!!!” Britney wrote at the time.
A lawyer for Britney’s dad and former conservator, Jamie Spears, has maintained that “all of his actions were well within the parameters of the authority conferred upon him by the court,” per a prior statement obtained by E! News.
