Britney Spears has reached a settlement with her estranged father more than two years after the court-ordered termination of a conservatorship that had given him control of her life. The terms of the settlement were not disclosed by the attorneys for the pop star and her father, who confirmed the settlement.

Britney Spears' attorney, Mathew Rosengart, expressed his honor and privilege in representing, protecting, and defending the iconic singer. Rosengart emphasized Spears' status as a brilliant and brave artist of historic proportion. With the conservatorship terminated in November 2021, Spears' wish for freedom is now fully realized, allowing her to move forward without the need for further court involvement.

On the other side, Alex Weingarten, attorney for Spears' father, shared that Jamie is thrilled that the legal matters are finally resolved. He highlighted Jamie's love for his daughter and his unwavering commitment to her well-being.

Spears' conservatorship, which began in 2008 with her father as the conservator, came to an end in November 2021. Despite the termination, legal disputes continued, with ongoing court battles over attorney's fees and allegations of improper conduct in managing the conservatorship. Jamie Spears consistently denied any wrongdoing throughout the legal proceedings.

The conservatorship had granted Jamie Spears control over Britney's finances and medical decisions for over a decade, sparking public outcry and the #FreeBritney movement. With the settlement now reached, both parties can move forward from this chapter in their lives.
