00:00 >> Alarming headlines claim
00:02 Britney is completely
00:04 dysfunctional after she and her
00:05 dad quietly settled their
00:06 contentious legal battle.
00:07 The terms were not disclosed,
00:09 but according to TMZ, Britney
00:11 was awarded nothing and is now
00:13 required to pay Jamie's reported
00:15 $2 million in legal fees.
00:17 Trial attorney Misty Maris, who
00:18 does not represent either party,
00:20 is not surprised by the report.
00:22 >> It's not unusual for the
00:24 conservatee to be the one
00:26 footing all the bills.
00:27 Actually, under the law, in a
00:29 conservatorship, legal bills for
00:31 both parties come from the
00:33 estate of that person.
00:34 So Britney Spears in general
00:36 would be responsible for all
00:38 legal fees.
00:39 >> Hours before she deactivated
00:41 her Instagram account over the
00:42 weekend, Britney appeared to
00:43 address the conservatorship and
00:45 settlement.
00:46 In a message alongside a photo
00:47 of her in a thong, she condemned
00:49 her family, saying, "My family
00:51 hurt me.
00:52 There has been no justice and
00:53 probably never will be."
00:55 Britney's attorney said in a
00:56 statement, "Although the
00:57 conservatorship was terminated,
00:58 her wish for freedom is now
01:01 truly complete."
01:02 An attorney for Jamie shared in
01:04 part, "He loves his daughter
01:05 very much, and everything he has
01:07 ever done has been to protect
01:09 and support her."
01:10 Not long after the settlement
01:11 was reached, she was spotted in
01:13 California's San Fernando
01:14 valley with her former
01:15 housekeeper, Paul Richard
01:17 Solis.
01:18 During the outing, according to
01:19 the "Daily Mail," Britney kicked
01:21 up her high heels and caused a
01:23 huge crack in the windshield.
01:25 But a source tells "Access" the
01:27 windshield was damaged a couple
01:29 of weeks ago.
01:30 According to "TMZ," Britney's
01:32 friends reportedly claim she's
01:34 in a worse mental and financial
01:36 situation than she was under the
01:38 conservatorship, claiming she's
01:40 "dangerously unstable."
01:42 A source tells "Access" the
01:43 story of her going broke is
01:45 misleading and grossly
01:46 exaggerated.
01:47 As for whether Britney's
01:48 conservatorship may be
01:49 reinstated amidst deepening
01:51 concerns for the 42-year-old,
01:52 according to "Misty," it would
01:54 be a long legal process for that
01:56 to even be a possibility because
01:58 her conservatorship officially
02:00 ended in 2021.
02:01 >> The only way for Britney
02:03 Spears to be subject for a
02:05 conservatorship in the future
02:07 would be if a family member, a
02:09 friend, somebody in her sphere
02:12 were to actually petition the
02:14 court and start the process way
02:16 back at the beginning.
