My lifelong BFF taught her sons in the valley outside of LA. She had nothing but very nice things to say about both Britney and Kevin. Kevin is the primary parent, he is very involved and serious with their sons. Britney is very pleasant and sweet but seemed a bit immature and more of a weekend parent. Kevin was the one doing the homework with the boys, checking on their tests, conferencing with teachers, etc. He was the stability. Britney is a lovely person, but the boys were better off primarily with Kevin.


Gosh, can you imagine if someone reported on your parenting like your loose lipped friend blabbed to you and probably everyone else? And OF COURSE she was a “weekend parent” as you put it. She doesn’t have primary custody. That tends to cut a person out of the loops. JFC.


Well according to DCUM, public figures are fair for criticism. Looking on her IG it’s pretty clear she has mental issues and needs help.


They might have her drugged. She does not get to decide on whether to take medicine. It’s forced upon her.


You have it flipped. She was prescribed anti-psychotics to keep her sane and her bipolar depression at bay. Without both she has the 'free will' to ruin her life and the lack of a filter/desire to do anything about it. Basically pre-2019 her Instagram wasn't a bunch of videos of her dancing like a stripper with a spaced out expression, boob pics, and random memes.

Like this picture from 2018 is very different from her current Instagram.

Also she has permanent eye makeup. Her upper and lower lids are constantly perfectly lined whether its 2 in the afternoon or 1AM.

I have many people in my family with serious psychiatric disorders. They all need their meds tweaked occasionally and a serious overhaul every 6-10 years, even with fidelity and therapy. That could be what’s going on or she could just be having a little wacky fun after so many years of serious control.

I think it's hard seeing a mentally incompetent person being taking advantage of. But many of her fans are in denial about her illness and have the misguided desire for her to be "free."


Yes she's quite ill, and has demonstrated it online. Especially of late.

I believe this boyfriend is simply using her as a stepping stone. Funny how he mention moving upward in his career. All the red flags are there.

Her current instagram is a lot. I will say, though, that she seems normaler in the pictures with her fiance, so maybe he's a calming influence?

Does she not realize she has teenage sons? Why all the boob smushing pics and shorts down to the patootie?

She hasn't been capable of mothering those poor boys since they were babies, why should she start now?

She is clearly severely mentally ill, and her fiancé is definitely just using her. It’s very sad.

He's calming til he's gone then's she's back to psychotic episodes while breastfeeding an infant.

Also she deactivated her instagram today.

There were always rumours that Brittney did not control that IG page. Maybe she wants to make a fresh start.

This is way worse.


Schizophrenia in and of itself is NOT a reason to strip someone of their rights. I have two family member with schizophrenia whose affairs I am managing. They have been on the equivalent of 5150 holds several times before we were involved. It’s unfortunate but I guess because no one can take advantage of them, no court sought to place them under the equivalent of a conservatorship. POAs and proper treatment were more than enough to ensure they are ok. Are things perfect? No. But they are adults who have a right to their autonomy and money as long as they can show they remain on their medication and under treatment. And that is all managed for years without a conservatorship.

+1 There are many people with schizophrenia who can live full lives with medication and minimal intervention from family members. She has enough money to keep a roof over her head for the rest of her life, which is often a primary concern.

Like anyone else that does that. A sign of instability.

Grounded people don't need to do that stuff.

Yes depending on the degree they do need management. Brittany has plenty of freedom, and a court has determined what is best in her situation.
