Britney Spears has no intention of ever speaking to her dad again, no matter what her family wants.
As you know, the 44-year-old pop star fought a long battle to get out of her long-term conservatorship with her dad, Jamie Spears. To say it was a traumatic time for her would be an understatement, and ever since she got out of her conservatorship, she’s been keeping distance between herself and her family.
After her DUI arrest last week, we heard she had a chat with her mom, Lynne Spears, but that doesn’t mean she’s keen on letting her family get too close again. And we can’t say we blame her! The betrayal she must feel from them is heartbreaking. But even so, her inner circle is pushing her to reach out to her dad, per a new source for PageSix.
On Tuesday, an insider told the outlet Brit Brit is feeling “antagonized” by her loved ones who are trying to reconnect her with Jamie. Meanwhile, he reportedly “doesn’t want to remain disconnected from his daughter”:
“He wants the chance to be able to talk with her and find some middle ground.”
In fact, the source claims her sons Jayden James and Sean Preston are all for it. They want their mom and their grandpa to set aside their differences:
“Even the boys have gotten back into their grandad’s life after some tough times. They would welcome a united family despite all the years of drama.”

But even with the Toxic singer’s beloved sons pushing for it… She’s not interested. She’s completely “on edge” at even the simple idea of talking to her dad again:
“There is long-term hatred and loathing that may never be overcome. Jamie puts Britney on edge, and her moods get deeply dark around the prospect of him being in her life … despite efforts by people in her life for some reunion.”
We mean, that’s completely understandable! And sadly, the source said this was part of what led to her arrest to begin with:
“That has increased in recent months with the boys being around more. There is a direct correlation between that stress and Britney turning to alcohol to numb that pain. Sadly she will always view her father as a villain, because of how she felt trapped and controlled within the conservatorship.”
The insider continued:
“She hated having to adhere to regular doctor visits, therapy sessions, and medication plans. That is understandable for someone who is dealing with a bipolar condition. Obviously, a father overseeing the principle of that process is a tricky situation — not least emotionally — but her condition needed some medical supervision.”
Ugh. She’s been through so much… Poor Britney.
Her vehement refusals are reportedly hurting her dad, per a separate close source:
“[Jamie] has suffered with health severely in recent years. [He] is deeply hurt at how his daughter refuses to consider ever speaking to him again. He held out hope when his life seemed in a perilous state that his daughter would visit him, but that never happened.”
This insider went on to say Jamie was “painted” as the bad guy during the #FreeBritney movement:
“Jamie only ever wanted to keep his daughter alive, and also financially solvent, in that order. Jamie has consistently told those around him that he remains proud that he did ’save Britney’s life,’ no matter how the public may feel.”
The source added that there’s been “various failed attempts” to get the two speaking again, but Britney “seems terrified” that her dad “will somehow regain the conservatorship, which obviously is a very challenging legal task and something Jamie doesn’t have the energy to consider”.
Such a tough situation. What do U think, Perezcious readers?
