On Wednesday, US pop singer Britney Spears urged a judge to end a controversial guardianship that has given her father Jamie Spears control of her affairs since 2008 during an emotional court hearing.

Britney Spears dynamically addresses a Los Angeles Court about how her life is under conservatorship. The singer says she wants one more kid but is unable to have it.

Britney's father Jamie Spears, is mainly in control of her finances. The singer said that she feels oppressed and taken advantage of. 

"I haven't done anything in the world to deserve this treatment. It is not okay to force me to do anything I don't want to do .... I feel ganged up on, and I feel bullied, and I feel left out and alone. And I'm tired of feeling alone." pic.twitter.com/tk07G9DXUZ

Britney also said that she wants to marry and have one more child but that is impossible due to the terms. Currently, she is in a live-in relationship with Sam Asghari. 

Bless Britney and I hope with my whole heart she is awarded freedom from this abusive system. She deserves it more than anything. I admire her courage speaking up for herself today.

She told the court that she wanted to remove the birth control device IUD “so I could start trying to have another baby, but this so-called team won’t let me go to the doctor to take it out because they don’t want me to have children, any more children.”

We love you Britney!!! Stay strong ❤️❤️❤️
