Jamie Spears has announced in a court statement that he will step down as guardian. At the right time, he will do so, according to the document filed with the Superior Court in Los Angeles on Thursday (local time), which was published by US media. The 69-year-old’s lawyers further stated that a “proper transition” for the appointment of a new guardian was a condition.
Britney Spears should get a new guardian
Britney Spears’ lawyer, Mathew Rosengart, also rated the development as a great victory for his client. Jamie Spears should, however, immediately resign as guardian, he said in a message published by the industry journal “Variety”. According to the motion, Jamie Spears is to be replaced by an interim guardian – certified auditor Jason Rubin.
Spears himself posted a painted picture on Instagram without further comment showing a woman from behind. She wears flowers in her hair and a butterfly flies over her shoulder. A user commented on the picture with the words “We are one step further on the way to your freedom”. Another commented: “She is free”. Previously, the 39-year-old had one that she shows dancing. The singer commented: “I am very careful when I dance, but letting go means freedom.”
The singer has been under her father’s tutelage since 2008 after she collapsed psychologically due to personal and professional problems. At first, Jamie Spears managed his daughter’s wealth and personal affairs. In 2019 he stepped down, but remained responsible for finances. The singer’s personal needs, including medical issues, are handled as co-guardian Jodi Montgomery, who was Spears’ former manager.
