As Britney Spears gets more freedom and is going scorched earth with her Instagram account, someone has also been speaking to US Magazine on her behalf. If US truly has a source in Britney’s camp I’m happy for her. That means she’s using both traditional and new media to get her story out. US has two recent stories from a source close to Britney. In the one quoted in the title they say she’s happiest with her sons Preston, 15, and Jayden, 14. In another the source says that Britney has “found her voice and there’s no stopping her.” Good. As you know, Britney has a new lawyer who is working to have her father, Jamie, removed as her conservator. Here’s more of US’s articles about her.
“Britney’s happiest times are when she’s with her boys,” a source exclusively reveals in the new issue of Us Weekly. “Even with all the rules and restrictions in her life, when she’s with them, all of that fades away.”
The insider calls the Grammy winner, 39, “such a fun, cool mom,” adding, “The problem … is that she doesn’t get any say in their day-to-day lives. [Her ex-husband] Kevin [Federline] gets to make all major decisions for their boys.”
“Britney is fighting back now because she feels support[ed], and for the first time, like she has power,” the insider continues. “The #FreeBritney movement really gave her her voice back. She felt like she wasn’t alone.”
“Britney has tried several times before to get her life back, but no one would listen. Now that Britney has found her voice, there’s no stopping her,” the source tells Us. “It’s all been building up for so long and she’s ready to unleash on those that have held her away from her own life. She wants the world to know what her dad has been doing to control her life.”
“The ruling that Britney can hire her own lawyer is huge because it’s the first tool Britney has been given to fight back against the conservatorship,” the insider notes, calling Britney’s boyfriend, Sam Asghari, “a true rock” through all the drama. “He supports her and wants her to have freedom. Britney and Sam feel that they will win the fight and get to really start their lives together.”

I can only imagine how hard it’s been for Britney to be apart from her boys. At least she’s been able to see them, but she’s been under this conservatorship for most of their childhoods. By most accounts Kevin Federline has been a great dad and has worked to make sure Britney sees them, but that doesn’t make it OK that she doesn’t have legal rights as their mother.
The last time we talked about Britney she was wearing what looked like an engagement ring. Her boyfriend, Sam Asghari, talked about the rumors that they’re engaged. He joked to a paparazzo “We’ve been married about five years. We secretly got married in Hawaii. That’s one of the stories that I don’t know, but I see it on newspapers. Yeah we have twins.” That’s on the cover of Woman’s Day.
Britney has also made a couple of new posts since the last two which seemingly roasted her family. She posted ne with a photo reading “One day at a time” and wrote ” I will never be able to let go and fully move on until I’ve said all I needed to say… and I’m not even close! I was told to stay quiet about things for so long and I finally feel like I’m just getting here.” She also posted a video of herself dancing and she wrote a caption about how she’s been buying a lot of tennis shoes lately. The subtext which I read into it is that she hasn’t been able to just shop for stuff she wanted and needed without getting approval before now.
