Fans were stunned and thrilled: Britney Spears was singing for them again. The pop star took to Instagram on July 15 to belt out a darker, more haunting version of the hit track that launched her career in 1998, "...Baby One More Time," singing it a cappella while doing laundry. "I haven't shared my voice in an extremely long time," Britney noted.
"Maybe too long." There's a lot she's waited to share. But nine -months after a judge ended the conservatorship that ruled her life for nearly 14 years, Britney has been opening up more and more to those around her, says an insider, providing fresh insights into her struggles under the control of her father, Jamie Spears, as she works through years of trauma.
According to the insider, the 40-year-old is also revealing her newfound contentment - especially after marrying fitness model Sam Asghari in June. "Britney is finally at peace and gushing about how much she loves her new life," says an insider. "She has clarity and credits therapy and her faith with helping save her. Britney is happy at last."
