A representative for Britney Spears confirmed to People magazine on Sunday, April 12, that the pop star chose to admit herself to a treatment center voluntarily.
Britney Spears believed that entering treatment after her recent DUI arrest was the right decision for her, a source shared exclusively with People magazine.
On Sunday, April 12, a representative for the 44-year-old singer confirmed that she had voluntarily checked into a treatment center.
The decision came after Spears was arrested on March 4 in Ventura on suspicion of driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol.
According to an insider, those close to Spears encouraged her to get help following the incident. The source explained that she recognizes the gravity of the situation and believes seeking treatment is the best way to move forward, adding that she is now actively getting the support she needs.
After being released the following day, March 5, her representative described the incident as unacceptable in a statement. The rep emphasized that Spears intends to follow legal requirements and take necessary steps toward meaningful personal change. They also expressed hope that this moment could mark the beginning of a long-needed transformation in her life, with access to proper care and support during a challenging period.
The statement further noted that Spears would be spending time with her children and that her loved ones are working together on a plan to help improve her overall well-being. She shares her two sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James, with her ex-husband Kevin Federline.
The Grammy-winning artist’s arrest has raised concerns among fans, particularly due to her unpredictable social media activity in the years following the end of her conservatorship in 2021.
Shortly after the incident, another source revealed that Spears felt deeply emotional, remorseful, and embarrassed. The insider added that she was especially worried about how the situation might affect her sons, as she cares deeply about them and does not want to disappoint them.
