Jamie Spears Has Finally Agreed To Step Down As Britney’s Conservator (UPDATE: Or Has He?)
UPDATE: Well that celebration lasted for about one second because Jamie Spears’ attorney tells NBC News that he’s not resigning at this time but “is willing to step down when the time is right, but the transition needs to be orderly and include a resolution of matters pending before the Court.” Insert one million OprahSoWhatIsTheTruth.GIFs here.
UPDATE II: The Hollywood Reporter adds that Jamie Spears has agreed to step down in the future but there’s no timeline for when that will happen. It will be discussed at a hearing on September 29.
Here’s the original post:
Any one of my exes will tell you that I deserve the award for Trick Who Can’t Take The Biggest Of Hints for not knowing that I’ve been dumped. But that award belongs to Jamie Spears because for a while now, Britney Spears has blatantly let him know that she wants him around as much as she wants a Frapp with no whip. But Daddy Spears finally got a clue and has resigned as Britney’s co-conservator. To which Britney will probably reply with, “You better work, bitch, no seriously, bitch, you better work because you ain’t getting any more easy money from me!”
In June, Britney told the court that she wants out of her 13-year conservatorship, and at the very least, she wants her father out as her co-conservator because he’s an abusive and controlling monster who only sees her as an ATM. And after Britney won the right to choose her own lawyer, her new attorney, Mathew Rosengart, filed papers to request that Daddy Spears be dropped as her co-conservator. Daddy Spears was in charge of Britney’s money while Jodi Montgomery is in charge of Britney “the person.” Jodi Montgomery agreed that Daddy Spears should step down as co-conservator. But he wasn’t going to go down without a fight. Last week, he filed papers claiming that Jodi called him last month to say that Britney is “mentally sick” and should be put on another 5150 psychiatric hold. Jodi shot back, saying that he needs to stop with the attacks and get the fuck out already. And Daddy Spears has done just that.
TMZ says that in court documents that were filed by Daddy Spears’ lawyer today, he says that even though there’s no good reason for him to leave his cushy position as his daughter’s co-conservator, he’s going to step down for the sake of her wellbeing.
“There are, in fact, no actual grounds for suspending or removing Mr. Spears as the Conservator of the Estate … and it is highly debatable whether a change in conservator at this time would be in Ms. Spears’ best interests. Nevertheless, even as Mr. Spears is the unremitting target of unjustified attacks, he does not believe that a public battle with his daughter over his continuing service as her conservator would be in her best interests. So, even though he must contest this unjustified Petition for his removal, Mr. Spears intends to work with the Court and his daughter’s new attorney to prepare for an orderly transition to a new conservator.
Regardless of his formal title, Mr. Spears will always be Ms. Spears’ father, he will always love her unconditionally, and he will always look out for her best interests.”
Daddy Spears also licked his own ass by saying that 13 years ago, he saved his daughter from leeches (see: Sam Lutfi) who were taking advantage of her mental state at the time. And as Daddy Spears made his way to the exit door while carrying his things in a cardboard box, he made sure to get in a few parting shots. Namely, he went after Britney’s mom Lynne Spears. Through most of Britney’s conservatorship, Lynne has been quiet, but recently, she’s been backing Britney up in court. Daddy Spears thinks that’s funny because according to him, Lynne hasn’t really been a part of Britney’s life for the last 13 years. He added that in 2019 when Britney was in a mental health facility, she refused to see her mother.
Britney’s lawyer, Mathew Rosengart, said in a statement that they’re happy that Daddy Spears is finally out and will continue to put their magnifying glasses over the books to see how he spent his daughter’s money.
“We are pleased but not necessarily surprised that Mr. Spears and his lawyer finally recognize that he must be removed. We are disappointed, however, by their ongoing shameful and reprehensible attacks on Ms. Spears and others.
We look forward to continuing our vigorous investigation into the conduct of Mr. Spears, and others, over the past 13 years, while he reaped millions of dollars from his daughter’s estate, and I look forward to taking Mr. Spears’s sworn deposition in the near future. In the interim, rather than making false accusations and taking cheap shots at his own daughter, Mr. Spears should step aside immediately.”
Mathew has already called out Daddy Spears for shady payments, like paying himself $2,000 more than Britney’s monthly allowance and requesting that her estate pay $1.3 million for his legal fees including $541,000 for “media matters.”
As for who will replace Daddy Spears, Mathew Rosengart requested that accountant Jason Rubin take over.
Mathew Rosengart’s statement basically translates to, “Okay, but you better learn how to make Velveeta grits using shit from the prison commissary.” And that financial forensic investigation isn’t the only thing that should be making Daddy Spears shake with fear. Look who is on Team Britney. The number-getting hussy-destroying warrior queen herself:
It’s wonderful so many have supported Britney! I’ve just heard the news! Wonderful things can happen when we stand together… but not too close because I have just learned that some of you do not bathe.
