After a 20-minute recess following Britney‘s statement, attorney Vivian Lee Thoreen addressed the court to share a statement from Jamie.

“[Jamie] is sorry to see his daughter in so much pain. [He] loves his daughter and misses her very much,” the statement said.

During her statement, Britney relayed to the judge that Jamie, and her mom, Lynne, had both taken advantage of her in controlling her life.

“My dad and anyone involved in this conservatorship, and my management who played a huge role in punishing me … they should be in jail,” Britney shared. “I don’t even drink alcohol. I should drink alcohol considering what they put my heart through.”

She went on, saying that she wasn’t lying: “I want to feel heard … [and have people] understand the depth and degree and the damage that they did to me back then. I want changes, I deserve changes. I was told I have to be sat down and evaluated again. Ma’am, I didn’t know I could petition the conservatorship to end. I honestly didn’t know that. Honestly, I don’t think I owe anyone to be evaluated. I’ve done more than enough.”

After the court hearing this afternoon in Los Angeles, several stars have shared their support to Britney.
