Britney Spears’ family is reportedly extremely scared for her after seeing footage of her swerving dangerously while driving home during a night out with a friend.
The pop star’s family is “terrified” Spears is “losing control,” the Daily Mail reported, comparing her erratic behavior to how she acted before her breakdown in 2007 when she shaved her head and lost custody of her two sons with Kevin Federline.
The family is now reportedly in crisis talks over how to help Spears.
“There’s a lot of concern. Everyone has always wanted the best for her, and she’s showing right now that she’s making bad choices,” a source told the outlet.
“It’s terrifying,” the source continued. “So there’s a lot of talk about what to do, if anything. How can we protect her from herself.”
Some insiders have suggested Spears should be placed back in a conservatorship, the outlet reported, even though her controversial conservatorship held in part by her father, Jamie Spears, ended in 2021.
Spears’ complicated legal arrangement — in which her life was strictly controlled — ended after 13 years due in large part to outcry from her fans, who created the #FreeBritney movement.
“The last time that Jamie stepped in to protect his daughter, he became public enemy number one,” the source said.
“People said he was trying to grab her money, which is not true,” the source continued. “So the question is whether anyone should step in to help her, and deal with the backlash.”
Spears’ rep didn’t immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
Shocking video footage obtained by Page Six showed the “Toxic” singer, 43, leaving the Red-O restaurant in Thousand Oaks, Calif., last Wednesday despite others appearing to urge her not to get behind the wheel.
The singer’s black BMW convertible went on to make an erratic U-turn, with her tires screeching.
More erratic driving included her meandering into other car lanes — as well as a bike lane — as she headed home. At one point, she also crossed the road’s center divider.
Spears has been in the headlines lately due to her ex-husband’s tell-all memoir, “You Thought You Knew,” in which he makes serious accusations against the pop icon.
Accusations include her allegedly using cocaine while breastfeeding their sons — Sean Preston, now 20, and Jayden James, now 19 — and her wishing they were dead.
Spears’ spokesperson told Page Six of Federline’s memoir, “He and others are profiting off her. Sadly, it comes after child support has ended with Kevin. All she cares about are her kids … and their well-being during this sensationalism.”
As her drama with Federline raged on, Spears claimed she had brain damage in an Instagram post due to how she alleged she was previously controlled.
“I do feel like my wings were taken away and brain damage happened to me a long time ago 100 percent… I have of course moved on from that troubling time in my life and I’m blessed to be alive,” she wrote in part.
She has also accused Federline of “gaslighting” and telling “white lies” about her in his memoir.
