Britney Spears is free of the conservatorship that has ruled her life, career and finances for nearly 14 years. A Los Angeles judge terminated the court-ordered arrangement Friday at the request of the pop star’s legal team, ending her years-long battle.
The hearing was the first since her father, Jamie Spears, was suspended from his role as a co-conservator. The decision is effective immediately.
The ruling comes after Spears delivered a blistering statement about the conservatorship in court this June, calling it “abusive” and saying it left her feeling “bullied” and “alone.”
Britney celebrated the ruling on Instagram with the hashtag #FreedBritney, calling it the “best day ever.”
“I think I’m gonna cry the rest of the day,” the pop star wrote.
