Britney Spears is in “dire straights,” according to her mother.
Lynne Spears is reportedly going to court in an effort to take more control over Britney’s life after the pop icon recently spent 30 days in a mental health rehabilitation facility.
According to TMZ, Lynne is set to appear in court to challenge Britney’s father, Jamie, who has sole “conservatorship” – a US concept similar to guardianship – over Britney.
Apparently Lynne wants more access to information about Britney’s medical history.
A source said, “Britney is making bad decisions and it’s a problem.”
As we recently reported, Britney checked into the mental health facility after medication she takes stopped working.
Soon after, Lynne shared a message online that said:
“Keep going no matter how bad things are right now, no matter how stuck you feel, no matter how many days you’ve spent crying.
“No matter how many days you’ve spent wishing things were different, no matter how hopeless and depressed you feel.
“I promise you won’t feel this way forever. Keep going.”
After she left the mental health facility, Britney posted a video on Instagram reassuring concerned fans she was just taking time to rest.
“My situation is unique, but I promise I’m doing what’s best at this moment,” she said.
