Britney Spear assures her fans she is well mentally

Singer Britney Spears recently took to Instagram to address rumours she was being held against her will at a mental health facility and says her family have been receiving death threats.

Fans of the pop star began the #FreeBritney hashtag campaign based on unfounded rumours that the 37-year-old was being held against her will at an institution by her dad, Jamie (66), FOX News reports.

 I wanted to say hi, because things that are being said have just gotten out of control!!! Wow!!! There’s rumors, death threats to my family and my team, and just so many things crazy things being said. I am trying to take a moment for myself, but everything that’s happening is just making it harder for me. Don’t believe everything you read and hear. These fake emails everywhere were crafted by Sam Lutfi years ago... I did not write them. He was pretending to be me and communicating with my team with a fake email address. My situation is unique, but I promise I’m doing what’s best at this moment 🌸🌸🌸 You may not know this about me, but I am strong, and stand up for what I want! Your love and dedication is amazing, but what I need right now is a little bit of privacy to deal with all the hard things that life is throwing my way. If you could do that, I would be forever grateful. Love you ❤️❤️❤️

Britney’s dad became the sole conservator of his daughter’s estate in March after her attorney Andrew Wallet resigned. The Pretty Girls singer checked into a wellness facility for mental health treatment earlier this month.

Fans were still concerned as the star hadn’t clarified whether she was being kept at the mental health centre against her will or if she voluntarily committed to treatment.

To make matters worse Britney’s mom, Lynn (63), liked several comments on an Instagram post that suggested the rumours of her eldest daughter being held against her will were true.
