I’d like to know why these so-called ‘sources’ in her inner circle are leaking this to the press. What’s their motive? I’ve worked for MAJOR celebrities & deeply personal things are held under wraps + everyone signs NDA’s. All very suspect. BritneySpears britneyspears

Her father knew she had problems and her new husband knew. Y’all were happy when she was turned loose now look at the mess she has become. So sad!!!
