Britney Spears Doesn’t Want Help, Sees ‘Any Sort of Professional Help as a Huge Trap’ (Exclusive)

There are a lot of people wanting help Britney Spears following her DUI arrest, a source tells Star, including her estranged family, who “live in fear every day that she’s going to wind up dead.”

But the troubled “Toxic” singer, 44, doesn’t want their help — or anybody else’s.

“Britney is so terrified of another conservatorship, she’s seeing any sort of professional help as a huge trap,” the source explains. “Any attempt to guide her or intervene immediately makes her feel like people are trying to take her freedom away again.”

The Princess of Pop famously spent 13 years living under a court-ordered conservatorship.

“I think back now on my father [Jamie Spears] and his associates having control over my body and my money for that long and it makes me feel sick,” she wrote in her 2023 memoir, The Woman in Me.

Loved ones insist, however, they have Spears’ best interests at heart.

“Everyone is trying to reassure her that no one is looking to lock her into another legal arrangement, they just want to help her get healthy and safe,” says the source.

The mother of two reportedly fired her sobriety coaches just weeks before California Highway Patrol officers picked her up on Thursday, March 4, for driving under the influence.

“Even after this arrest, she says she doesn’t want them coming back,” reveals the source. “Britney keeps saying she wants to fix things on her own terms and [that] she doesn’t want to be rescued by anyone.”

After news of Spears’ DUI arrest broke, the “Lucky” singer’s representative told Star that she was planning to “take the right steps and comply with the law” and that “hopefully this can be the first step in long overdue change that needs to occur in Britney’s life.”
