Britney Spears has come out to deny reports claiming that her friends and family were planning an intervention over concerns that “she would die”.

These claims were sparked by TMZ’s reporting that Spears was taking medication that made her “erratic” and “volatile”.

On Instagram Spears wrote, “It makes me sick to my stomach that it’s even legal for people to make up stories that I almost died … I mean at some point enough is enough!!!”

Spears’ husband, Sam Asghari, also shut down these reports in a statement to Access Hollywood.

“An intervention did not occur,” Asghari said. “My wife is in full control of her life and will continue to make all decisions involving her care regardless of circumstances.

“Speculation on her health is inappropriate and should end immediately.”

Due to the situation Spears has chosen to take a break from social media.

“I’m probably going to have to stop posting on Instagram because even though I enjoy doing it,” she explained, " there’s obviously a lot of people who don’t wish me well !!! I’m honestly not surprised at all… Again doing the best I can !!!”

Concern for Spears

Spears admitted in an Instagram post in August 2022 that she has been struggling with mental health issues for some time now. As a result, fans have been growing increasingly worried over her well-being.

In a Los Angeles restaurant in January 2023, Spears began acting in a bizarre manner after patrons began crowding the singer and taking out their phones. The event only heightened concerns.

Spears though was positive when marking her newfound independence following the severance of the 13-year-long conservatorship which was run by her father Jamie Spears.

“Again, the conservatorship has been over for almost a year…” Spears said on Instagram. “No folks, it’s not 2007 … it’s 2023 and I’m making my first homemade lasagna at home.”
