Britney Spears’ family is reportedly extremely worried for her safety after recently viewing footage showing the pop star driving erratically while returning home from a night out with a friend. According to the Daily Mail, her family is “terrified” that Spears is “losing control,” drawing comparisons to her behavior prior to her well-publicized breakdown in 2007, when she shaved her head and temporarily lost custody of her two sons with ex-husband Kevin Federline.
Currently, Spears’ family is said to be engaged in crisis talks to determine how best to support her. “There’s a lot of concern. Everyone has always wanted the best for her, and she’s showing right now that she’s making bad choices,” a source told the outlet. “It’s terrifying,” the source continued. “So there’s a lot of talk about what to do, if anything. How can we protect her from herself?”
Some insiders have even suggested that Spears should be placed back under a conservatorship, despite the controversial arrangement ending in 2021. Her legal conservatorship, which was partially managed by her father Jamie Spears, lasted 13 years and concluded largely due to public outcry and the #FreeBritney movement led by her fans.
“The last time that Jamie stepped in to protect his daughter, he became public enemy number one,” the source explained. “People said he was trying to grab her money, which is not true. So the question is whether anyone should step in to help her, and deal with the backlash.”
Spears’ representatives have not yet responded to Page Six’s request for comment.
### Disturbing Footage of Erratic Driving
Shocking video footage obtained by Page Six showed the “Toxic” singer, 43, leaving the Red-O restaurant in Thousand Oaks, California, last Wednesday. In the clips, others appear to be urging her not to drive, but Spears gets behind the wheel of her black BMW convertible regardless.
The footage captures a series of dangerous driving maneuvers, including an erratic U-turn with tires screeching, weaving between car lanes and a bike lane, and at one point crossing over the road’s center divider as she made her way home.
### Recent Controversy Surrounding Kevin Federline Memoir
Spears has also been in the headlines recently due to a tell-all memoir by her ex-husband, Kevin Federline, titled *You Thought You Knew*. In the book, Federline makes serious allegations, including claims that Spears used cocaine while breastfeeding their sons Sean Preston, 20, and Jayden James, 19, and that she wished harm upon them.
A spokesperson for Spears responded to these accusations, telling Page Six, “He and others are profiting off her. Sadly, it comes after child support has ended with Kevin. All she cares about are her kids and their well-being during this sensationalism.”
### Britney Opens Up About Past Trauma
Amid ongoing drama with Federline, Spears shared a candid post on Instagram addressing her mental health struggles. She claimed to have suffered brain damage as a result of how she was previously controlled.
“I do feel like my wings were taken away and brain damage happened to me a long time ago 100 percent. I have of course moved on from that troubling time in my life and I’m blessed to be alive,” she wrote.
As Spears continues to navigate these challenging times, her family, friends, and fans remain deeply concerned for her health and well-being.
