Britney Yes, I'm Pregnant!

After years of not being in control of her own destiny, Britney Spears is finally living out her dream of becoming a mother again

It's the life she always wanted. On April 11 10 months after pleading with a judge to end her conservatorship, in part so that she could “get married and have a baby — Britney Spears announced that she and fiancé Sam Asghari have a little one on the way. I am having a baby,” the pop star, 40, wrote on Instagram, explaining that she'd taken a pregnancy test after some unexpected weight gain. “Spreading lots of joy and love!

The couple, who have been dating for nearly five years, got engaged last September – just two weeks after her father, Jamie Spears, filed paperwork to terminate his control over her estate. Prior to giving up the role, according to Britney's testimony, he had forced the singer to wear an IUD and barred her from tying the knot. Since the conservatorship officially ended last November, “Britney has been busy checking things off her bucket list,” says an insider. “Getting pregnant was her No.1 goal, so one of the first things she did postconservatorship was to remove her IUD. Britney and Sam couldn't have been happier to find out she was expecting.”
