Doesn’t she know that it’s toxic?

Spears, 42, sarcastically wrote that she is “not bitter at all” after her father, Jamie Spears, barred her from imbibing during her 13-year conservatorship, which ended in November 2021.
“I don’t find it poor decision making on behalf of my family to keep that from me for 15 years !!!” she wrote. “I don’t find it demoralizing or incredibly cruel !!!”

“I learned from them exactly what it means to really LOVE !!!” she wrote.
Britney concluded her rambling message by asking her 42.4 million followers, “What are you guys drinking tonight ??? Hope y’all can READ THE MENU !!!”
